In a short period of time in Beijing, Mandarin language classes were offered as well. Following graduation, she decided to concentrate on music. The track My Vag, a response track to Mickey Avalon's My Dick gained viral popularity on the Internet in 2012. It was eventually included in her first album Yellow Ranger released in 2014. The album also included viral hits such as the body-positive Queef or the winking city tour the city of New York Bitche$. The second track linked into Awkwafina's NYC Travel Guide that was published in 2015, which was an additional idea. Her resume contained both an author and musician.
