Kelly, who is managed by SB Projects, signed to Epic Records earlier this year and unveiled her first single with the label, “Missin U,” and its Y2K-inspired music video in March. The song marked Kelly’s first new music since 2019’s Inspired by True Events and 2020’s A Tori Kelly Christmas. In 2019, she won best gospel album at the Grammys for her sophomore album Hiding Place and best gospel performance/song for “Never Alone.”
