Although Kelly hasn't released a record in six years, she dropped "Kelly"  in 2018, plus "Crown" and festive number "Love You More At Christmas Time" from her movie "Merry Liddle Christmas" - in which she played Jacquie Liddle - last year.

It's not known whether "Coffee" will feature on her long-awaited fifth album, the follow-up to 2013's "Talk a Good Game", which she's been working on for a few years now.

Speaking in 2017, the "Dilemma" hitmaker promised it will be worth the wait and said she wants to make a record that will set a "good example" for her five-year-old son Titan - whom she has with husband Tim Weatherspoon.

She said: "All of my fans have been so supportive but now they're like, 'We've hit a ceiling.'

"I have the guts to really put out the record. I'm unapologetic with this record. It's everything that I want it to be. It feels like life. It feels like a score.

"For me it's been the most bold I've ever been. And I want it to be a good example for my son."

The "Survivor" singer also confessed that most of her music has taken a while to complete, except for her hits "Commander" and "When Love Takes Over" with David Guetta.

She said: "A lot of my albums and songs have been slow, except for tracks like 'Commander' or 'When Love Takes Over'.

"I said I wanted this record to be happy because we need that right now, more than ever. That's where my heart is."
