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.
much more than basic level
no idiot couldve written trapped in the closet. that shyt had me on tiptoes the first time. the man is a master of his craft
