Since 1997, Enriquez has had several club hits in America, but has not received radio support or gotten sales support from the mainstream public.

"A Little Bit Of Ecstacy" is remembered to this day, due to its recent inclusion on the DDR Max 2 PlayStation 2 game. However, it had stronger sales than "Do You Miss Me" (peaking at #1 on the Hot Dance Music/Maxi-Singles Sales chart, as opposed to #8), which enabled it to reach #55 on the Hot 100. Its followup, "A Little Bit Of Ecstacy" was not quite as big a radio hit, failing to cross over to the pop stations and peaking at #25 at dance radio. "Do You Miss Me" became a top 40 hit at dance and pop radio (#17 and #38 peaks, respectively), and peaked at #49 on the Hot 100.

Jocelyn peaked at #182 on the Billboard 200 albums chart and at #11 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart.
