She recorded and popularized Visayan classics such as Matud Nila (They Say in English; Sabi Nila in Filipino), Gimingaw Ako (I Feel Lonesome), Usahay (Sometimes in English; Minsan in Filipino), Rosas Pandan and Miss Kita Kung Christmas.
Fuentes was born as Susan Toyogon in Butuan in 1954.
At age five, Fuentes was already joining amateur singing contests in Butuan.
While still in high school at Agusan National High School, she was featured in the defunct Bisaya magazine for her singing talent and beauty.
After high school, she went to Manila to continue her singing career.
She got her big break and her recording debut in 1977.
As a singer, Fuentes’ sultry performance was noted for its lusty vocals and emotional styling.
She was also known for her Latin-styled Visayan folk songs.
She gained crossover success in the Tagalog, Ilocano, Hiligaynon and Visayan music market with the famed Awitong Bahandi and Mga Awiting Walang Kupas.
She eventually took a long hiatus from the music industry to raise her own children.
During this period, Fuentes went through personal struggles with her life as she battled drug addiction and heavy smoking that would eventually lead to her partner taking her children away from her.
In 2002, she underwent kidney transplant after they were both damaged.
She had to be confined in the Kidney Institute for three weeks, where she had 13 sessions of dialysis.
During her final years, Fuentes had to be confined in the hospital due to her worsening health condition.
After over coming her personal struggles she returned to the industry in 2010 with the help of her long-time friend and singer Dulce.
She performed with Pilita Corrales in Cebu, with Dulce in Bohol and made a guest appearance at Walang Tulugan with the Master Showman on June 19.
These would be her last performances on stage.
Her worsening health condition prompted Fuentes to be confined in the hospital.
She stopped performing on stage after 2010.
On August 19, 2012, Dulce organized a fundraising event for her titled "Usahay … A Moment for Susan" which took place on August 28 at Zirkoh Morato in Quezon City.
The event was organized to help Fuentes pay for her medical bills.
In December 2012, she was recognized by the JRG Halad Foundation as one of that year's awardees for outstanding contributions to Cebuano music.
She became estranged from them for many years until 2012.
In August 2012, she was interviewed by GMA News where she expressed hope of being able to live for another ten years.

After Fuentes became a drug addict, her partner decided to return to his other family and took her children with him.
At her final televised appearance on Magpakailanman in March 2013, she told Mel Tiangco of how much she wanted to live so that she could see her children again and get to know them better following years of estrangement.
