[7] On 20 May 2022, Plank self-released "Hate Me". [8] The song detailed Plank's attempts at putting off a potential love interest, due to her own self-hatred. [9] The song brought Plank to the attention of Black Butter Records, who signed her, [10] and rereleased the song on 19 August 2022, [11] the same day as its camcorder-style music video, which was shot with Sexy Lady Massive, a women-only rave in London.

On 21 April 2023, Plank, Rudimental and Vibe Chemistry, released "Dancing Is Healing", [13] a song about the healing properties of dancing, [14] which charted at No. 5 on the UK Singles Chart, [15] and was certified Silver by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI). [16] On 25 April 2023, she released "White Noise", [11] which she had previously performed live. [17] On 18 May 2023, [18] she, Turno, and Skepsis released "Rave Out"; the track was recorded as the first of 22 tracks to come out of a January 2023 writing camp, and discusses men's mental health, [19] and charted at No. 37 on the UK Singles Chart. [15] "Dancing Is Healing" and "Rave Out" later appeared on Plank's mixtape InHer World. [20] Plank and Skepsis later collaborated again in February 2024 for "Green & Gold", a collaboration with Rudimental and Riko Dan [21] of Roll Deep, [22] which charted at No. 29. [23]
