Before Kelly's health took an unexpected turn, she had sat with Elite Daily to talk about her "new era" and hairstyle change ahead of the upcoming release of her "Tori" EP. Although the interview was held in May, the publication threw back to it in their Monday, July 24 edition, pointing out that the "I Say A Little Prayer" artist explained her makeover: 

"When I was in the studio, I was already starting to let my roots grow out. I was like, 'I'm over this. I don't wanna dye my hair anymore. I think it's just time for a change.' It just made sense to not dye my hair. It just felt right. This look is both very natural and a progression of me figuring out what I love."

Her progression will definitely shine through in her musical project, which contains seven songs, including her hit single "Missin' U." On the track, which she dropped in March, Kelly effortlessly reminds her audience that her voice was made for blending pop and R&B. 

In less than two minutes, the "Rugrats" voice actress reflects on a previous romantic connection, expressing a willingness to rekindle it. Infused with elements of classic United Kingdom R&B similar to singer Craig David's "Fill Me In," she captivates listeners with her infectious and enjoyable sound.

The other tracks on the project are "Cut," "Shelter, "Unbelievable [ft. Nigerian singer Arya Starr], "Alive If I Die," "Young Gun [ft. singer and producer Jon Bellion], and “Missin’ U [R&B Edit].”
