How many Heaux Tales are there, really? The limit does not exist: Jazmine Sullivan has unveiled plans to release a deluxe edition of her Grammy-nominated album.

The expanded version of Sullivan's 2021 opus is set to include a handful of new songs, as well as stories — the spoken-word interludes about feminism, body image, class and sexuality — put into effect by her friends.

UPDATE (1/21, 1:17 p.m. ET): According to a tweet from Sullivan, the expanded work will be titled Heaux Tales, Mo'Tales: The Deluxe.

RCA has yet to confirm the exact number of additional tracks, but the artist's June 2021 ballad "Tragic" (featuring California congressperson Maxine Waters) will reportedly be on the tracklist [via Variety].

"The conversation continues," Sullivan said of the deluxe edition. "I started Heaux Tales with the idea of having open conversations as Black women, and you can't put all of that into one project. There's always more to talk about."

Heaux Tales 2.0 is set to arrive on February 11 via RCA, just before the R&B maverick is slated to begin her 2022 tour in Vancouver on Valentine's Day.

Heaux Tales marked the follow-up to Sullivan's 2015 album Show Time. Her hit "Pick Up Your Feelings" made Barack Obama's summer playlist last year.
