When she was 16 years old, she dropped out of high school to devote herself entirely to music. In the spring of 2021, she released her first single, "Do It Better". On the day of the launch, she had been poisoned, was hospitalized and risked permanent damage to her vocal cords. During the summer, she considered giving up her music career altogether.

In the autumn 2021, Mossberg Mounkassa was one of the participants in the seventeenth season of the TV program Idol on TV4. She joined the program by applying to its new concept Idolraketen which aired apart from the regular Idol program on TV4 Play. There, along with four other applicants, she was assigned to the Stockholm region, and later she was also selected to become that region's idol rocket, this after dueling against the same-age Ella Öberg (who would later return in the last episode due to a dropout from another idol rocket) from the same region. Through the second part of the Idol gig, the qualifying week and the qualifying final, Mossberg Mounkassa managed to become one of the participants in the top 13 by receiving one of the jury's six wild cards, this after she had only a few days earlier failed to advance to the qualifying final from her qualifying heat. On 3 December 2021, it was confirmed that Mossberg Mounkassa would face Birkir Blær in the idol final held at the Avicii Arena on 10 December. Once in the final, she finished in second place.
