Jean took piano lessons for six years, starting when she was in first grade, also taking vocal lessons. She also began writing songs in first grade.[4] Jean was a part of her high school's choir.[5]
Jean was encouraged by her brother to make her music public after he heard her perform a cover of Radiohead's song "Creep", which prompted her to start posting her music to SoundCloud.[1] In October 2021, Jean wrote the song "WYD Now?" with fellow New York University students Grace Enger and David Alexander Levya and posted a snippet of the song to TikTok the following day.[5] In November 2021, she posted an "open verse challenge" for "WYD Now?" on TikTok, which went viral on the platform. "WYD Now?" was released as her debut single in December 2021.[6] In February 2022, she released the music video for "WYD Now?", directed by Jaqueline Dufwa.[4]
As of 2022, Jean is a student at New York University's Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music.[6]
