In October 2009, Bennett released her debut single, "Sex in the City", via Moshi Moshi Records; NME magazine described the track as "rude, fresh and kinda brilliant". A version of the single features rapper Tinchy Stryder. Bennett was profiled in The Guardian's "New band of the week" feature the same month, with Paul Lester describing her as "a rougher, cruder version of glossy American R&B" and "a new urban female who is... like a Moss Side Pink if she'd worked with Tinchy instead of Linda Perry".
In October 2013, Bennett issued "Fire Me Up" under her shortened stage name jin" target="_blank">Jin jin" target="_blank">Jin. She collaborated with the band Polar Bear on the song "Cuckoo", released as a single in October 2014.
