Danielle Senior's first collaborative effort was on Shystie's single "One Wish", on which she co-wrote and sang backing vocals. "One Wish" was the lead single taken from the "Diamond in the Dirt" album, and was released through Polydor Records[3] in 2004. Around the same time she also contributed vocals to upcoming artist Plan B's debut album "Who Needs Actions When You Got Words" (679 Recordings), on which she played the part of a newsreader on the album track entitled "Suzanne". Senior then set up her own label called Breakproof through which she released and distributed her own self-penned music, (One Day EP[4]), making waves on the urban underground scene with her cover of the Rose Royce classic "I Wanna Get Next To You", which she simply called "Next 2 U" ft. Plan B & Wretch 32.[5][6] Through persistent underground releases she eventually caught the eye of All Around The World Records who signed her shortly after due to the popularity of her song "Take It To The Dancefloor", which she wrote. A club, radio and TV hit, "Take It To The Dancefloor" can be cited as Danielle Senior's commercial breakthrough and brought about a national PA tour, alongside artists such as N-Dubz and the Wideboys.[6][7][8] After signing with Notting Hill Music Publishing in 2009, Senior began to write songs for other artists. Her first song placement "Honeytrap/Satisfaction Guaranteed" was covered by Superstar artist Jolin Tsai in Asia and peaked at number 3 in the Yes 93.3 Music Chart.[9] As the lead single from Jolin's album "Myself", it helped catapult the album to the top of the G-Music chart for several weeks.[10] During this time Danielle also co-wrote "Every Emotion" Aura ft. Danielle Senior, which was signed to Love Rush Digital UK in late 2010.[11][12]
