ENISA - Tears Hit The Ground [Official Music Video]
In 2015, Enisa began performing cover songs to artists such as David Guetta and Sia ("Titanium"), Hozier ("Take Me to Church"), Justin Timberlake ("Cry Me a River") and Adele ("Hello"). After graduating from high school she had wanted to get into the music industry,[8] and filmed her first video with a photographer friend who wanted to get into videography.[1] Her cover of Hozier's song hit 100,000 views on YouTube within three months,[13] while a reupload posted by a Facebook page amassed one million views in three days.[14] Enisa has stated in interviews that her lack of connections in the industry prompted her to post herself performing cover songs as a way to showcase her talent and she hoped that it would grab the attention of a music producer or a manager.[5][8]

In 2016, she released her debut single "Burn This Bridge" on September 15,[16] with the music video releasing on November 23.[17] Enisa had been inspired to write the song after being discouraged by someone in the industry who she thought would help her instead tell her that "I didn't have what it takes and I wasn't good enough basically ... I just took it out on the studio.
