Bianca Dupree is from Harlem, New York. At age 16, she created the 2006 "Chicken Noodle Soup" song with DJ Webstar, and her uncle Da Drizzle created the beat. The song and related dance became a viral hit on YouTube, and by October 2006, the song reached number 45 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. In 2015, Dupree joined the supporting cast of the VH1 reality television series alongside friends Cardi B and Mariah Lynn on Love & Hip Hop: New York in season six. She was promoted to the main cast in the show's seventh and eighth seasons. In 2017, she released visuals for her song "Faith In These Brownskins", a response to the line "All I got is faith in these lightskins" in the Summertime Shootout mixtape by Fabolous. In September 2019, South Korean rapper J-Hope of boy band BTS released a remake of her song "Chicken Noodle Soup" with American singer Becky G. After giving birth in 2020, Bianca Bonnie has returned to reclaim her place as Harlem Royalty.
