After joining the contemporary r&b group Sweet Cinnamon the newcomer had the opportunity to meet a New York-based label producer and achieve an audition that led her to make her first record, a single called "Can't Play Around," released in 1993. The successful "Joy," recorded along with David Morales and "Happy People," followed in 1999. In addition, Kathy Brown performed on Praxis' chart-topping single "Turn Me Out (Turn to Sugar),".
