Why is Alicia Keys Leaving 'The Voice'?

Alicia Keys is focusing on new music.

As the "Blended Family" singer continues to coach Stephanie Rice, Vanessa Ferguson and Chris Blue towards The Voice Top 10, she's also announced that she won't be returning alongside Miley Cyrus for the show's next season. Though Keys hasn't ruled out an eventual return to her big red chair, she told ET on Monday night to expect a follow-up to her 2016 album, Here, very soon.

"I'm about halfway," she said of the process.

"I'm ready for the next one already, which was kind of the plan the whole time," she said. "I wanted to put out Here where they have a statement body of work, and my next body of work is already in the works. I'm excited!"
