For some artists, it takes many years of releasing single after single and album after album before they might, keyword here being might, become the kind of act that can chart a song on the Hot 100, and that’s only if they are the luckiest of the lucky. Every once in a while there comes an artist that gets it right pretty much on their first try, either thanks to a tune under their own name or because of a pairing that just seems to work like magic.

The latter is the case for ROZES, who managed a Top 10 hit just about a year after she decided to start creating music under that name. The singer is known for her smash hit “Roses” with 2016’s EDM darlings The Chainsmokers, which kicked off both her career and the dance duo’s incredible year by peaking at No. 6 and becoming one of the most popular tracks of the past 12 months.

Here are 10 things you should know about ROZES, who might be a mystery to you, though her voice certainly isn’t by now.

The Chainsmokers Found Her and Slid Into Her DMs

Believe it or not, this sort of thing actually happens in music sometimes, even though it sounds better than a fairytale.

“They actually followed me on Twitter and then slid into my DMs,” ROZES admits, laughing at her luck. “I was just walking around my college campus grocery store, and I almost had a heart attack.”

That is actually how the two acts “met,” and it wasn’t long until they were actually making music together.

She Didn’t Name Her Hit Single After Herself, The Chainsmokers Did

“I didn’t plan the whole “Roses (featuring ROZES)” thing,” the singer explains, trying to clear the air on what must be a somewhat confusing situation for those fans that noticed that her biggest hit is named after the featured vocalist herself. “I reached out to them and asked to hear the song and they had named it already.”

She Didn’t Know It Was Doing Well Until She Heard It on Her Local Radio Station

One might imagine that if a song is being sent to radio stations as a proper single and getting the music video treatment, everybody involved would be closely kept in the loop, but that is not always the case, especially in the music industry.

“I remember our management getting in contact and saying, ‘We’re going to do radio trials to see how that works,’ and I guess it did well. I wasn’t really hearing it at the time. I’d been traveling, so I wasn’t home to hear it. I think the first time I heard it was on one of my local radio stations, and. I was like, ‘Oh my god! I listen to this every day and now my voice is on it!’”
