Patra first made an impression on the US charts as a featured singer on the Shabba Ranks song, "Family Affair", which hit No.
In 1995, Patra released her single "Pull Up to the Bumper" which was a remake of the Grace Jones song and peaked at #60 on the Hot 100,[6] #21 R&B,[7] and #15 on the Dance chart.
[citation needed] Soon after, Patra took some time off once again from the music industry, becoming more spiritually connected to God and completing a bachelor's degree in history and political science.
That year, she did a series of shows and interviews, and began work on her fifth studio album with a 12-track set planned with A&R executive/producer, Rich Nice.
[11] She released a buzz track "Bad Inna Bed" ahead of the album's first single, "Come Ova" (featuring Delus) which premiered in June 2012.
