"Wildwood" was featured in Containment, Wynonna Earp, and Finding Carter, as well as "Sparks" being featured in Catfish: The TV Show[2].

In 2015 she collaborated with hip-hop artist NF on his song "Mansion" (which peaked at 30 on the Billboard Hot Christian Songs chart[6]), the second track on his record of the same name which reached 62 on the Billboard 200.[7] Fleurie later opened for NF on a US tour in 2016.[1]
