Gadis Ingusan is Rossa's first children's album which was released when Rossa was 10 years old. Initially, Rossa only accompanied her mother for vocal tests (recordings) at the Pro-Sound studio, Jelambar, West Jakarta, but Rossa's prank on singing using headphones actually attracted the interest of Pro-Sound producer Mr. Budhy Paramita to make an album for her.[1]

In this album, Rossa, who was still a child, was directly handled by skilled senior musicians of her era such as Addie MS., James F. Sundah, Erwin Badudu, Arthur Kaunang, Franky Sahilatua, etc. It was a challenge in itself considering that they had to make children's songs that were different from usual. And Rossa was able to conquer songs that were quite difficult for the children's song category at that time. Unfortunately, this album, which was worked on optimally, was not successful in the market. It may be that this album is too heavy for children's consumption, but it is also suitable for teenagers and adults to enjoy. But even so, this album is a good start to Rossa's future career.

“This album is not a profit-making project, but a prestige project. Just take a look, how many young singers are handled by so many famous musicians like this Rossa Rose album," said Mr. Budhy Paramita, Boss Pro-Sound, giving a comment. (Quoted from Ananda magazine 1991)

Rossa is different from child singers in general, her distinctive Lady Rocker-style voice with a very high pitch has been Rossa's trademark since she was little. When she was little, Rossa's singing style was heavily influenced by the music of Indonesian Lady Rockers such as Nicky Astria, Nike Ardilla, Anggun C. Sasmi, Lady Avisha etc., as well as western music such as Rolling Stone & Scorpion. She also received the nickname "Little Rossa Rose" or Little Lady Rocker because of her shrill voice.
