"Lately" is a ballad recorded by American R&B girl group Divine. The song was released as the group's debut single in August 1998 and peaked at number one on the US Billboard Hot 100. The gospel-inspired song was eventually released to international markets, but it failed to make as big of an impact as it did in the US.

Irish singer Samantha Mumba released her version of the song on her debut LP Gotta Tell You. Due to the lack of popularity of the original version performed by Divine outside the US, Mumba's label decided to release the song as a single internationally. "Lately" was the fifth and final single from "Gotta Tell You" internationally and the sixth single overall. Released on December 10, 2001, "Lately" peaked at number three in Ireland and number six on the UK Singles Chart.
Music video[]
In the music video you see flashes of Mumba singing, and a wall calendar flipping down the days. The video eventually goes into a scene of an Asian man's photo hanging on a wall, to whom Mumba is singing about. The video late shows Mumba in front of a dancing choir. It eventually closes with Mumba's face singing the last line "lately".
