The second single, "It Kills Me", became her breakout song on the Billboard Hot 100, where it entered the Top 50, along with topping the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. The song earned Fiona a Grammy Award nomination for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance. The Bridge also earned her a NAACP Image Award nomination for Outstanding New Artist. In 2012, Fiona won two Grammy Awards for Best Traditional R&B Performance for the song "Fool for You" with CeeLo Green.

In 2011, Hallim began recording her second studio album. The lead single was entitled "Gone and Never Coming Back". The single peaked at 37 on the US R&B chart, becoming her second highest peaking song on the R&B chart so far. Later that year, Fiona released her second single, "4 AM"; it was sent to urban stations on August 30, 2011. "4 AM" peaked on the US R&B chart at #8; the song was about a lover who had gone out and was cheating on her. She released her second studio album The MF Life on March 20, 2012.
