he told ya’ll he was the pied piper of R&B–be sure to look up the meaning of the pied piper and how he got down back in the day—and you won’t be very surprised on why he acts the way he does.

So are you working for Kelly now or what.

I must say, this email came at an interesting time. I was just talking with this guy who also called R.Kelly a musical genius. And I guess I need a shot of what you guys are drinking cause I would never call him a Musical Genius! To call R.Kelly a genius is to put him in the category of Stevie, Prince, Michael, Miles, Monk, Beethoven , Bach, MarvinGaye, etc…
He will never reach their status! I’ve been listening to R.Kelly since he stole Aaron Hall of Guy’s thunder and he had some really tight hits but nothing more than that. I heard he plays keys, but I’ve yet to see him jam and free style with a live band. Recording small phrases on a keyboard and looping them is not the same as composing a song. Not everybody knows music theory but I would give him more props if he did. His lyrics are elementary as well, but that may not be his fault. Too many of our people are very lazy minded and prefer to sing along to simple repetitive lyrics that rhyme.

Anyway, I just had to get that out.

r. kelly is a very grown man fucks and who pees on little girls (who we then try to make into women to soothe the pain that we feel when grown men fuck little girls).

Showdown is the Finale to the whole saga - listen to it. Sparkle counts.

At last…. I’m not alone. R ‘God’ Kelly is a genius in our midsts albeit tormented genius . I’m touched by the research into his back catalogue. But how does Showdown fit into the mix and does songs from sparkles album count such as Vegas. I mean in the canon of Kelly. Are there parallel planes of existance.
