NEW YORK (AP) — Get ready for more drama from Sylvester, Twan and Pimp Lucius — R. Kelly is delivering more chapters of “Trapped in the Closet.”

The outrageous musical series started off as five videos for the R&B singer’s dramatic cliffhanger songs in 2007. It quickly became a cult classic, and he added more chapters, put the videos on a DVD and teamed up with IFC to premiere it.

For the next chapters, Kelly is teaming up with IFC again. He said in a statement Wednesday, “The Alien is back and It has brought friends along.”

He also called the series “not of this Earth.”

Kelly has a new album due soon, as well as a memoir due out in June.

It’s unclear when the new “Trapped” chapters will debut.
