A year after her departure from Idols Dewi released her first album 'Know Me'. Its single 'Left of Center' reached the top ten in The Netherlands. Other hits were 'Amazing' and 'When You Walk In The Room, a duet with Jamai, who was her boy-friend at that time.
In 2007 she played in the stage musical Hair, but in april 2008 she returned with a second album, called 'True to my soul'.
Dewi later did little public jam-sessions with friends like Hind or ex-K-otic members Anna and Bouchra.
She resurfaced in 2009 as a "mystery popstar" in the television show 'Popstars'. This season, known artists were given the chance to audition but hidden from the jury, so they would be judged solely on their voice, not their popularity.
In 2010 she is making a comeback with the new single called 'Sour'.
She is having now a labelcontract with Diesel Joy Records.

To Nomi
I try 'n find the words to tell
As many as I , I need to
To know me, it took a while but it gets to me
Listen to me, I hear you
To many nights I'd been wandering around
I couldn't let go, I just had to go down
Baby, this is the moment to say
That you are
Chorus:
Wonderful, You're wonderful
And I'll never let go
Cause I do love you so
You're wonderful, wonderful
Rewind or reverse
For the better of the worse
To Nomi
I'm here now
I can't imagine a day without you
As many as I, I used to
To Nomi
So close to me when I play downtown
I guess you're just meant to be part of me
That you are
Repeat chorus
Sometimes I won't be around
But you're always with me, always be with me
Sometimes i won't sleep at night
Cause I'll be singing, singing this for you
Repeat chorus
