In 2021, Mai signed an exclusive publishing deal with industry veteran Nick Halkes, enhancing her profile and collaboration opportunities. Mai's previous collaboration with MuRli, "Ready," saw remixes by notable artists and peaked at No. 34 on the Irish Shazam charts. It was featured in key Apple Music playlists and received strong radio support.
