As a child, Brown began to regularly perform in school plays and beauty pageants while taking voice lessons and piano study. She was also involved with 'Janoskian's member Luke Brooks.
In 2011, Brown's mother discovered Kidz Bop, a website for kids to upload and share videos of themselves performing.

The prize included a RCA Records recording contract and starring role in the Kidz Bop 21 music video and commercial. Allen said after seeing her live, "She went from 'She's good' to 'She is no doubt gonna win this thing."[2]
Brown said she had the opportunity to listen to and select from her top three song choices. After considering and listening to the songs, she said she chose her first single “Hey Chica” because of the up-beat tempo. The song was released June 19, 2012.[3] Brown has performed the song on The Today Show and 86th Annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. She also performed "Do the mermaid" from Barbie in A Mermaid Tale 2.
