Following his first two albums, he gained wider recognition with Funny (2011).

In 2014 his album A year without summer was released under Harlem Records.[9] In 2017, Lotterman launched Holland, a multidisciplinary art project centered on his fifth album. Following this project, Lotterman took a six-year hiatus from music to work in youth social care.[10][11][12][13]

Dutch-language trilogy (2023–present)
