She began her career by singing R&B Ballads and Love Songs titled ''Dreamin'', ''My Dream Came True'' and ''Dream Rap'', and her image is described as "all tea parties and teddy bears".

This briefly changed when a female rapper, The Real Rochelle, released a song titled ''Rochell'le, Rochell'le'' (which could be a reference to the the TV show ''Seinfeld'', which had a fictional'' ''movie and musical, also titled'' Rochelle, Rochelle''). Rochell'le quickly responded with the highly unexpected diss rap song ''Rochell'le's Revenge'', which was rumored to have been ghost written by her boyfriend, gangsta rap legend [[Madd Dogg]]. In the song, she "lyrically destroyed her similarly-named rival with clear logic: simply, that there could only be one Rochell'le, due to the uniqueness of her name and the unusual apostrophe before the final two letters".

This again parodies Carey and similar events in her career, which came with the release of ''Daydream'' (''1995'') and ''Butterfly'' (''1997''). | After the Rochell'le Wars, her then manager/producer [[Jimmy Silverman]] influenced her to take on a more sexualized, hip-hop driven image with the albums ''[[Leg$]]'' ''(''1991'')'' and, after breaking up with [[Madd Dogg]], ''Dangerous Curves'' ''(1994)'' which caused the public to lose interest.
