The 26-year-old artist got her start in the music industry eight years ago with her debut mixtape Love & Drugs. Following her independent journey, Enchanting was signed to Gucci Mane's 1017 label in 2020. She previously credited producer J. White Did It for introducing her to Gucci. According to 1017's website, she described her sound as "Trap N Blues."
“I had to get comfortable with my voice,” Enchanting said about discovering her style. “Staying in the studio and constantly recording, it helps me find the style I can be good at.”
“Other people can relate to the things I say," she added. "I might help somebody through any situation, they can listen to me and find peace.”
Enchanting released her most recent project No Luv via 1017 in 2022. Since then, she released her song "He Can't Reach" for HBO's "Rap Sh!t Season 2" soundtrack via Issa Rae's Raedio imprint. She also appeared on her late friend Big Scarr's posthumous album The Secret Weapon. The album dropped a few months after he passed away from a drug overdose.
Rest in peace Enchanting.
