A graduate of The Philadelphia High School for Creative and Performing Arts, Sullivan primarily recorded "Heaux Tales" in her Philly home. The 14-track EP is her fourth record and first since "Reality Show" in 2015.

The record premiered in January at No. 4 on Billboard's Top 200 Albums chart. The album became her highest-charting and the second top-10 album of her career following her debut record "Fearless" in 2008.

"Heaux Tales" also debuted at No. 1 on Billboard's Top R&B Albums chart and No. 2 on Billboard's Top R&B/Hip Hop Albums chart.

Sullivan, 34, won album of the year for "Heaux Tales" at the 2021 BET Awards. She also won best R&B/soul female artist and album of the year at the 2021 Soul Train Music Awards.

Publications like Time Magazine and Pitchfork have also rated the album as one of the best of the year.

Sullivan has been nominated for three Grammy Awards at next month's ceremony, including best R&B album. She's also been nominated for best R&B performance and best R&B song, both of which are for the album's lead single, "Pick Up Your Feelings."
