As an infant and child, Pangilinan (then credited by her nickname Frankie) first appeared in TV commercials with her mother, Sharon Cuneta, including Kimbies, Nido and McDonald's.[10]

In July 2019, Kakie released her first single, "TYL" ("true young lovers"), produced by former Eraserheads frontman, Ely Buendia, who also played the guitar for the track.[11] It gained millions of streams after she performed it on Wish 107.5.[12]
