McRae, who began her career in the spotlight as a 2016 contestant of So You Think You Can Dance: The Next Generation, began conquering the pop world in 2017, when her homemade music videos became viral hits, attracting millions of views.

She released her debut EP All the Things I Never said in 2020, Too Young to Be Sad in 2021 and I Used to Think I Could Fly in 2022. Earlier this year she released the single Greedy, which was written and produced with top hitmakers Ryan Tedder (Taylor Swift, Beyoncé), Amy Allen (Harry Styles, Justin Bieber), and Jasper Harris (Doja Cat, Post Malone).
