In 1994, Cox made a pivotal move to the United States and caught the attention of music mogul Clive Davis, leading to her signing with Arista Records.

Her film debut came in the Canadian drama ""Love Come Down"" (2000), and she later showcased her acting skills on the Broadway stage in the titular role of the musical ""Aida"" in 2004.
Cox's artistic endeavors continued to diversify, with appearances in various films and musical productions, including ""Jekyll & Hyde"" and the musical adaptation of ""The Bodyguard."" Notably, her albums ""Destination Moon"" (2007) and ""The Promise"" (2008) were released through her independent record label, Deco Recording Group.
Throughout her career, Cox has consistently made an impact on the dance music scene.
