Since 31 May 2007 she has uploaded videos of her performances on YouTube which attracted over 7,000,000 viewers.[2][3] She has recorded cover versions of such popular hits like "Angels" by Robbie Williams, "Baby Love" by Nicole Scherzinger, "The Climb" by Miley Cirus, Rihanna's "Take A Bow" and many others.
In 2009 she auditioned for the second series of Polish version of hit television show called Mam talent!. In front of the judges she sang "Halleluyah" by Leonard Cohen. Despite receiving positive judges' comments and public reaction, she failed to get through to the live semi-finals. This caused many protests of viewers who wanted Kasia to return to the competition. However, all of them were ineffective.[4]
In late 2009 Popowska announced in one of her YouTube videos that she had signed a record deal with a label and was going to start working on her debut album.[5] Then, it was reported that she was signed by Amfibia Records. The album, which title is unknown yet, is set to be released in 2011.
24 July 2010 Popowska performed on XXIX Festiwal Piknik Country Mrągowo 2010. [6] She sang hit Dolly Parton "Jolene".
