Although she wrote the lyrics and sang vocals on "Pump Up The Jam", Technotronic had the blue-lipped fashion model Felly perform in the video.

She additionally lent her voice to Hi Tek 3, a dance project whose only single, "Spin that Wheel," appeared on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles motion picture soundtrack.

After the single "Rockin’ Over The Beat", she married MC Eric who also performed a Technotronic hit titled "This Beat is Technotronic" and had a child.
