Sun Ho led City Harvest Church’s Creative Department from 1993 till 2003 when she resigned to pursue her singing career. At the beginning of her pop career, she faced accusations that her dressing was inappropriate for her religious background, and rumors of her using her church's support to aid in album sales. After a series of successful concerts, she had the opportunity to further develop her career outside of Singapore, focusing on China, Taiwan and the US. In 2010, Sun Ho was questioned by the Singapore Police when City Harvest Church came under investigation for alleged misuse of funds.
From 2002 to 2007, Ho released a succession of five Mandarin pop albums that have either reached double or triple platinum status. During this five-year period, Ho worked with composers such as Ma Yufen, the late Ma Zhaojun F.I.R., Milk, Arys Chien, Lee Wei Song, and Tan Han Jin. “Lonely Travel” was ranked #1 on nine top music charts. Her next album “Gain” released in 2006 reached #1 position on 10 top music charts. In 2007, Ho released “Embrace” which hit #1 on 11 top music charts. Her song, “Starting Point”, was used as theme song for Singapore TV series “Turning Point” based on real-life inspirational stories, of which Ho was the host.
From 2003 to 2006, Ho’s first five English-language releases reached the top of the dance club charts of Billboard Magazine and London-based Music Week, making her the first Asian artist to score successive No. 1 dance hits.
In 2003, Ho broke into Hollywood with her debut American single “Where Did Love Go,” produced by David Foster and Peter Rafelson. The song reached #1 on the Billboard’s Hot Dance Club Play “Breakout” Chart in December 2003. Subsequently, three of her singles, “One With You”, “Without Love” and “Gone” reached #1 positions on the Billboard Dance Chart. “Ends Of The Earth” also joined the abovementioned three singles to reach #1 positions on the UK MusicWeek Chart.
