Just because something was normalized doesn't mean it was okay. Robert is disgusting. If ppl had a backbone back then he would've been held accountable for his actions in 94-95. Maybe some of those other young ladies could've been saved.
dudes point was that shyt was semi normal then

people knew but didnt care

the part that threw people off was the pissing on the girl

You really think an illiterate nikka like R. Kelly knew some hidden message about the original Pied Piper being a pedophile? Hell, all I ever knew about that story all these years was a man who came and lured the rats out of town playing a flute. Wasn’t until the recent R. Kelly trial when people started posting their think pieces and saying there was some deeper meaning behind it.

LOL @ thinking R. Kelly is super illiterate. He is a songwriter. On top of that, he wrote R&B music, which is a genre where sexual innuendo and euphemisms rule. When he writes and produces an album for a teenager titled Age Ain't Nothing But A Number, and is also featured on the album cover looking like he's waiting to pick her up while he's a grown man, one can't help but wonder if he was putting that out there the whole time. Writers/producers don't normally pose on an album cover that isn't their album especially not in the 90's. That and the whole Pied Piper thing was always weird even before people write think pieces about it. The Pied Piper, according to lore, lured children with what is essentially music. Even he had to see how foolish it was to call himself that with those allegations hanging over him. You can't on one hand hail this man as a genius level writer and then act like he was ignorant or illiterate when it's obvious he definitely has a grip on literature even at the most basic level.

Right and I'm saying the shyt was disgusting regardless. It's a lot shyt that used to be or is "semi normal" it's still trash. Meeting and grooming a 12 year old Aaliyah, then marrying her @ 15 should've got him the fukk out of here. But it was "normal" then to label the teen as fast and the 27 year as just a playboy.

The media went back after R. Kelly not too long after Cosby got convicted...


I knew in the Me-Too era that they wasn't gonna let him get away unscathed again. At the same time, R.Kelly should have laid low. Perform and write his songs and go home.​

R.Kelly somehow outlived his usefulness or he pissed off some industry folks...


Either way, he made some good music.

Let's hope he found a legal technicality like Cosby did or may be locked up for the rest of his born days like Suge Knight and C-Murder.
