6 years later…
R. Kelly, the superstar R&B singer, is finally set to face the “judge and jury” six years after he was allegedly caught on video having sex with a 14 year old girl. Kelly’s lawyers have been criticized for attempting to delay the trial indefinitely.
During the 6-year delay, Kelly continued creating chart-topping hits, but now he faces the possibility of 15 years in prison.
He actually tried to say it wasn’t him in the video. I know it’s a grainy picture, but even a blind man can see who that is.

On May 9, 2008 at 10:20 amWell my God it’s about time they’ve done something with his nasty rear end. Michael Jackson, Kobe Bryant, Michael Vick, Barry Bonds, al of those men have been to court and everything else. That’s one of the mistakes of this country though. We prosecute drug dealers and all of those sort of people so quick, but with R. Kelly, a nasty man whom we know is guilty, we just let him make it. No telling how many other young girls he’s made video tapes with.

We know he’s guilty, i guess we finna see what’s gone happen. Prolly nothing. It wouldn’t suprise me. but yea, on another note the player makes good music. if he do go to prison he could make a great cd in there. With all that time on his hands… yea, I hope he do that. I liked Lyfe’s cd he made fresh out of the pen. Naw but to keep it real with yall im a r. kelly fan for reals. im always gone be one.

On May 11, 2008 at 4:11 pmWe know it’s R. Kelly, I don’t think that’s the question. The question is whether or not he can fly? We know he believes he can fly, and I hope he can because that’s the only thing getting him out of this one.
