Six years may have separated fans of Jazmine Sullivan from her last project, 2015’s ‘Reality Show,’ but that wait came to a much-desired end with the January 8-release of the singer’s new EP, ‘Heaux Tales.’

Launched on the backs of critically acclaimed singles ‘Lost One,’ ‘Pick Up Your Feelings,’ and the H.E.R.-assisted ‘Girl Like Me,’ ‘Tales’ stands as a 14-track affair that boasts appearances from the likes of Anderson .Paak, Ari Lennox, and more.

An empowering conceptual project (which she stresses isn’t an album) is designed around Sullivan’s “observation of today’s women standing in their power and owning who they are,” the GRAMMY-nominated diva took to press recently to further detail her inspiration behind the effort.

“No longer is male patriarchy dictating what it means to be a ‘good girl.’ The truth is, women of all ages have been called a ‘heaux’ at some point in life, whether deserved or not, by some man trying to put us in our place; a place designed to keep us under control, out of the way and usually beneath them,” she expounded.

For your listening pleasure, ‘Heaux Tales’ awaits inside for streaming via Spotify and Apple Music.

Zayn‘s forthcoming third album, ‘Nobody is Listening,’ may have served as an inadvertent prediction for the singer’s last single ‘Better’ as the tune barely cracked the Hot 100 (peaking at #89 in Fall 2020).

Looking to change the tide a week ahead of the LP’s January 15-release, the former One Directioner is inviting fans to check out another of the project’s cuts – ‘Vibez.’

“Don’t keep me waiting / I’ve been waiting all night to get closer / And you already know I got it for ya,” he croons on the seductive mid-tempo. “You know the vibes, know the vibez / Put it on ya / If we’re moving too fast, we could slow up / Baby, this far from mediocre, no / You got the vibez, got the vibez.”

As we get closer to the release of Saweetie‘s long-awaited debut album, ‘Pretty B*tch Music,’ the 27-year-old continues to give reasons why the project is worth the wait.

Despite making headlines just a month ago for slamming her label for releasing her Doja Cat-duet, ‘Best Friend,’ prematurely (click here to read), the ‘Tap In’ performer is moving forward with its promotion by tapping legendary music video director Dave Meyers to direct its official accompanying clip.

“That’s my best friend she a real bad b*tch, drive her own car she don’t need no Lyft,” Saweetie spits. “In the strip club know my girl gone tip, now she twerking throw it out and come back in.”
