NIKO MOON’S “GOOD TIME” CERTIFIED GOLD

Surprised with Gold Plaque During Interview with CMT’s Cody Alan on “After Midnite”

Grand Ole Opry Debut Set For Oct. 10



Let me just start by saying, I never get surprised. I always see it coming and, I can always tell if like something is a little off. But, I completely got just mind blown by the surprise. I mean, it was unbelievable. I opened the door and there’s Randy Goodman standing there with the gold plaque. Oh my God my brain about exploded. It was so, it was just so out there for me. I just never, never in a million years thought I would open that door… and I was gonna see Randy standing there with the plaque, it was so cool. It was so amazing. It made me feel, just really cared about, really appreciated and this gold plaque, I mean, means more than I can really express. It’s really what is represents, not the gold plaque itself. It’s just the fact of so many people’s hard work and effort. You know, I, myself have been doing this for a while, just working really hard at this. It just makes you feel good to know that your music has connected to people. And, it makes you feel understood, it makes you feel worthwhile. And, um, to be able to have accomplished that with some of my favorite people in the world, my management, my label, I mean, I just love y’all. Thank you so much for all the love and support you give me. Um, for lifting me up, couldn’t ask for better teammates and oh, here’s to many more to come.
