Based in Los Angeles, Chicha first ventured into the music industry working as an A&R intern, and merchandise manager for her close friend Gus Dapperton. Shortly after, her music began gaining some traction at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. In December 2020, she released the track "name" and its accompanying music video, in addition to her debut EP Oatmilk. The EP features production work from David Marinelli, her main collaborator.
