Omarion is the latest star to distance himself from troubled R&B singer R. Kelly after the final episode of Lifetime’s docuseries Surviving R. Kelly aired on Sunday night. The 34-year-old singer/actor received backlash on social media after he pledged not to perform R. Kelly songs — after his current tour.
Social media users condemned R. Kelly after the final episode aired. And they bashed singer Omarion for performing a song written by Kelly titled “Bump Bump Bump” with Omarion’s former boy band B2K.
Kelly also wrote 2 additional songs on B2K’s Pandemonium album, “What a Girl Wants,” and “Girlfriend.”
The group announced a reunion tour in December — and they plan to include R. Kelly’s songs in their set. But many fans questioned the timing of the reunion.
“Unbelievable so you gone profit off the mans work what type of stance is that?” one user tweeted.
Another fan tweeted, “Nope! Disappointed. I was so excited to see this tour. But absolutely not supporting your ‘get money and THEN I’ll give a hell no’.”
Omarion took to Twitter to apologize, and he vowed he would never perform any R. Kelly songs — after the tour ends.
In a tweet on Monday, Omarion said he was retiring the songs from his tour set list, but not effective immediately. He plans to retire the songs after the tour ends.
“While I know our fans would be greatly disappointed if we didn’t perform those songs on #TheMillennoumTour , after the tour I am retiring those songs from my set list . I too am raising a future queen…”

Geez, this has gone too far. Now the singers who made hit records with R. Kelly songs (that includes you Jennifer hudson) WILL NOT SING THE HIT SONGS ON TOUR? I believe I can fly won’t be sung by anyone anymore…..this is ridiculous!
Foh im still performing those songs..
Gotta preface this by saying Robert dead wrong for what he’s done. But some of these folks and their fake outrage need to get on somewhere. None of their houses are clean and many of these same men won’t even procreate with a Black woman. F@ck out of here …and now reports Jada is chiming in? Son out here wearing skirts and claiming another dude is his boyfriend, an unconventional union?? Idk…at this point, I am tired of the stone throwing. RKelly deserves it, but
seems like we have a bunch of self righteous, selective amnesia ass folks running at the mouth. They keep on, their skeletons will be unearthed as well.
FVCK R KELLY AND HIS BEEDY EYES TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
HE went TOO FAR YEARS AGO. No one checked his greasy àss because all they saw was MONEY, MONEY MONEY. That’s why I don’t fvck with none of those folks either (Including Jay Z leather lips àss). As long as the money was flowing in and they were getting clout, by connecting themselves to him, THEY DIDNT CARE. Now his train has come to a halt, they’re all jumping off (fake sh?t). Naw they need to stay right on that train to the end. They were proud to be apart of the shine, they need to keep that same energy and be apart of the wreak. Stay seated and buckle up for the ride MF’s.
People are retarted. RKelly wrote 2 of their biggest hits and y’all think they not going to perform them because of the documentary?? Y’all knew RKelly was a pervert when y’all danced to those records 15 years ago! Why you flexing now? I’m still going and I’m still singing Bump Bump Bump FOH F y’all
People wonder why his sales went up…
The doc was made purely to shit on him. It would have been better had it taken a more objective approach. This is clearly bias so if you love Kelly, that aint change and if you hate him, that aint change either. If anything, it will just make you support your side harder…… hence the sales
that’s you Sade?????
While what you said is the truth, I don’t feel an ounce of sympathy for him. And YES, I do agree that all these fake stars outrage is some BS. They supported him KNOWING before the public knew, that he was fvcking children. THEY ALL KNEW!!! They were totally okay with it until NOW. They all can slip into a pair of gasoline draws, with that fake sh?t.
All of that, this how The internet is on crack right now so hide ya whole family cus they making everyone suspects.
Omarion needs to claim victim status privilege and go ‘head and perform the songs.
(i think i been on here too long…. let me go ‘fore i get pummeled)
yeah, these celebs knew exactly what was up! In total agreement with you.
Omarion’s offer will be to please let me sing my solo songs to replace these. I wouldbe willing to bet that
I have compassion for Omarion because of the timing. B2K finally reuniting after all this time and they can’t perform ‘What a Girl Wants?’ R Kelly is a freak-a-leek, but he makes damn good music!
Sing your songs Omarion. Can you drop the truth about Chris St(r)okes Em Up first tho? Atone my nig. Atone.
*I’m about to go be the die hard Alabama fan that I am now tho. Yeek! Perfection is so rough. Folks talk so much CRAP bc we are perfectly the perfection of college football. Epitome of greatness. Roll Tidddde, baby roll for ME! In my Ric Flair voice…Whooooooo whooo! Let me go find my ‘Bama gravi. Peace
That is why they call him the pied piper because he everyone stepping in the name of love. btw the pied piper use his pipe to lure kids how ironic. you can’t even make this stuff up. they was telling you what he was smh.
You won me with beady eyes and leather lips ?
Imma let yall finish but Best of Both Worlds was the best Rap / R’ n B Collaboration ever!
Lured all the kids out of a town, over a mountain, into a cave…and the parents never saw em again. 130 of em. 3 children remained. One was a cripple and couldn’t keep up. The other was deaf and couldn’t hear the music. The last was blind and couldn’t see in order to follow. Stay Woke!
i’m weak at these eyes and lips… LMAO!!!!!!!!
We hall have our flaws and some demons. I hope R Kelly can one day get the help he needs and right his wrong.
I’ll be lying , but R Kelly is a musical genius. The man made some good music ? . Didn’t really care for the music after TP2. Just sad sad sad sad.
Belive it or not it’s still a lot of women riding with him ?????
I understand what he trying to do but this is not the way to do it. You have to separate the art from the artist. R Kelly doesn’t even own his publishing so he doesn’t get paid from it anyway if I’m not mistaken he sold his publishing years ago when he was going broke
That was both of there worst albums smh cut it out.
That’s a fine azz young man since “touch” had me ?
He signed his publishing over to Aaliyah’s fam as an I’m sorry. On advice from his manager…who knew he was illiterate. He didnt know what he was signing.
And that manager happened to be Aaliyah’s maternal uncle Barry Hankerson.
OT:
well happy new year to me… i just checked my mailbox and i got a trial jury summons. let me go study this paper real close to see how i might get myself thrown Out of court, expeditiously…. TTYL…
I knew I read something like that. I’m all for the smoke r kelly is getting but when you start telling another artist they can’t preform a song cause he wrote it that’s to far.
Girrrrrllll https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/1df344acfac9be6fdeaf73e44ffea5539604b68d265f99886e2149ae590e7f49.gif
LOL!
Exactly! They knew because most of the men in that industry mess with underage girls. He’s just on front street right now and they’re all distancing themselves from him because they don’t want the light shinning on their dirt.
Good luck Sis
Why didn’t he just stay silent?
So it was Aaliyah uncle that introduced them right?
I read an in depth expose on Aaliyah and hunny…that uncle Barry knew what it was
Lol! But im serious though. I’m am so over folks trying to make excuses for him
Yes. He was married to Gladys Knight at one time too.
? yip
I only liked Uh huh and Why I love you. I need them to fire Stokes while they umm at it. My kids wore the songs out the Piper wrote to death..
I’ll be researching all night. Thank god I got time on my hand. I like to know the FACTS!
He’s hoping folks will buy those tickets.
?????
Chris Stokes ???
Just say something outta pocket like I did. (All of me guilty especially the white man thrice) went home and ate corned beef ? lmfaoo I’m not staying NOWHERE for a lil bit of per diem. ? shiiihhh naawwll lmao
It’s why Diane Houghton, her mom, stay defending him but try to cover it like she protecting supposedly Aaliyah memory. She trying to throw scent off fact she making money off him… still. All his music and all the stuff he wrote for others. Like B2K. Maxwell. He wrote Fortunate. Blaque. He wrote 808. Kelly catalog is ridiculous. And Diane supposedly screwed him too.
First 9 minutes
https://youtu.be/7hSc9LZi1N4
Right. He said I got ya’ll…AFTER i GET THIS BAG
Lies you tell and I didn’t say it was their best work I clearly said the best RnB / Rap Collab. 2 completely different statements. But that’s why they are called opinions….WE ALL GET ONE!
Another wanted to be included in some shyt and now he looking stupid.
I feel ya’ll and RKelly aint shyt and after I get this money from the concert Im neva singing those songs again. But I stand with ya’ll…a damn fool
I don’t think people are really aware of how much music he wrote for others smh sometimes whole albums. You could argue he is the greatest writer in music history. And the irony is he can’t write smh
???
They weren’t that bad lol I like the one with Devin the dude and the one with slick rick. But when you compare them albums to the rest of there catalog you have to admit it’s pretty low on the both list
I remember when R. Kelly sang at Whitney Houston’s funeral. He tried so hard to evoke the Holy Spirit and a reaction with his dramatic singing but NOOOOObody joined in. It was funny. I was happy.
He was dressed like Malcolm X. Take a look at this crook!
https://youtu.be/lLvDN07O5M8
While this may seem ideal, I’m surprised at you Nancy Drew. We are under representing in the judicial system especially as a jury of our peers. If we keep skirting our responsibilities and opportunities they will keep unfairly incarcerating our people. Stand up & represent…
unless the convict is white. LOL JK.
I got banned on B0ss1p years back for my comment about Aaliyah and her parents’ relationship with R. Kelly & the others. I pondered why they are so vigilant to protect her reputation post mortar and pretend that she was pristine in her life. I wanted to know why they allowed R. Kelly to be alone with their 15 yr old daughter unsupervised enough times for her to have sex, get pregnant, catch an STD, get married and be passed around. They should have been protected while she was alive and not just after death.
It’s safe to say that neither of her parents was on the plane with her that crashed and took her life. Where were they? How were they so trusting with their daughter traveling with grown men as her chaperones? Why didn’t her parents press charges against R. Kelly for statutory rape? That right their would have made a huge social statement. I have so many questions.
I’ve never been able to appreciate Aaliyah’s parents and now I know why. Thank y’all for this information. I’ve been scorned knowing they let him roam with their daughter instead of putting him in jail. Now they have built Aaliyah up as a music martyr. Aaliyah’s singing was just regular to me. The biggest hype came after death. She was maybe the black Britney Spears in a crop top.
Just like many rode Trump’s hump right on into the White House.
If he had kept quiet most wouldn’t have even thought of R. Kelly writing their songs. IJS
Funny how they waited until Hugh Hefner was dead to go after R. Kelly. But some of ya’ll will always and I mean always fall for the games.
THANK YOU!!!
Jade will defend R. Kelly because….
https://youtu.be/_dt6EOQTA8E
She defend this video of her daughter in bed with a naked grown man. Listen to how the Tee Mmm Zee team describes this experience. Willow is 13 yrs old. They look like the just got down. The Smith’s said they can do what they want as long as they can handle the consequences of their choices. What responsible loving parent would ever say this. I have since banned spending my money or time on anything they do.
Heck Jaden wore a rabbit costume to Kim and Kanye’s wedding.
Imagine how many more have done things that are still lurking in the dark.
Agreed. I didn’t know either until he brought it up. He probably felt like a deer in headlights and just had to put something out there.
Hell yea sis
I agree.
Tell them you can’t take an oath in wyte America. That should disqualify you.
Where is the grainy legal document, video statement, etc. that states this is a fact? Just asking because people are saying this but there’s been no proof of it. I’m wondering if this is what people hope happened as part of the settlement.
Such a hot ass sexy man !!!!!!!!!!! O yeah I dont care what songs he will or not perform ……….
Just break out all of a sudden singing, “Dum-dum-diady..” a’la The Fresh Prince – that should work. rofl
Zackly. Not a single person or parent mentioned meeting with the D.A., working with a lawyer to get their child committed on a 72-hour hold to get him away from him, contacting victim’s advocacy groups for, etc. to assist them in any way. It was all about sensationalism and ratings.
Yeek! These youngins don’t know nuffin’ bout that…. you are my peoples! LOL
Exactly! I had no clue.
Who do we think is going to post this? Barry Hankerson? Where we think these documents live? In a courthouse? R. Kelly has admitted this in a song tho.
“R. Kelly seems to be saying that he is missing royalties for music he wrote and that the abuse allegations are part of a deeper story to do with royalties. This idea is not a new one. Verses later, he says he was illiterate and dyslexic and signed away rights to his own music because he didn’t understand what he was signing when he was young. ”

And the irony is he can’t write smh
This! And Whole albums indeed. Movie soundtracks. All of it
Got my research frrom Vibe magazine and Sister2sister while it was happening.
Bc they were and are getting paid. Plain, simple and sad
You are special, I am convinced. …lol….
Well, she does have a tv lawyer’s name. So it might work?
This is how a deer gets gotten for dinner. When they stray away from the pack to be special and a lion bites that ass. None of the others have said a word. They were going to quietly cash their checks and pay their mortgages.
Lol, go to sleep, take a nap ….. you are a fool for that one…….
silly. he didn’t have to say anything. go do the show and no one would care, considering you’re not R Kelly performing. I truly don’t think people realize how illogical they are. Imagine had he just sat there and ate his food vs clout chasing.
Omarion(whom I worked with on “Fat Albert” & was so humbled by me recognizing him) is making a bad mistake by not performing those songs B2K only had so many hits & he was the one that did ALL the vocals.
Btw: B2K was the best looking young black boy group I ever seen.
i liked pretty ricky way better than b2k. i know they came out at different times, ijs.
LIES! The preacher behind him got the holy ghost.
Hilarious! Lol!
i was so surprised he actually showed up to sing the song. to be a fly on the wall to hear the whispers and side comments would’ve been priceless.
lol. you are crazy. i wanted to get chosen for jury duty because i couldn’t see what the big deal was. i did my civic duty. almost one year later, i got selected again. uh uh, i moved. …so i told them. pick somebody else schit. you have tens of thousand of people in this county, hell i was just there three days. i haven’t been called since for jury duty… in my “new address” either.
Omarion and the entire B2K is TRASH…..they all can have several seats!!!
I couldn’t get into them as much maybe because my kids played it to death.
Facts! I’ve even heard delusional people say, that she would have been bigger than Beyonce ?. Where and on what planet?!?! Aaliyah was on the scene way before Beyonce. Whatever pinnacle she was going to reach, she already had.
Facts
It wouldn’t have been no Beyonce, Destiny Child or Brandy without Aaiiyah.
He needs to get a backbone. I dont know the b2k songs cause they was after my time, but if rkelly happened to have written the songs that were the hits, sing them. There wont be any music if everybody takes that approach. Social media will have you crazy trying to please people. Plus, like i stated earlier, there are probably other people who worked on those songs would like to get paid for their hard work too.
Btw, I never cared for Rkelly as an artist and loathed most of his music. However, the songs he wrote for other artists were better than the songs for himself, imo.
Ikr, he just Had to say something.
I loved me some pretty ricky now.?
Omarion who?? I will continue to jam to R. Kelly’s music which includes Aaliyah’s albums. So will the people on here claiming false protest. Separate the man from the art. As much as I despise Woody Allen, Roman Polanski, and Elvis Presley’s predatory ways…they are exceptional artists. Truth is that throughout history it has been acceptable to court and marry young teenagers. Man established laws have changed that for the most part but it’s common place in other parts of the world and in American history. How old were your grandmas and great-grandmas when they got married? Many of you had babies as young teenagers. I don’t get the false outrage when you sitting up only 14 or 15 years older than your own child.
Go! Start scratching, then start twitching, then start a conversation with yourself. #helpful ??.
Bloop! And good evening….pack up and let’s go….
He should vow not to perform PERIOD!
You’re sick. Stop trying to justify filth. You’re comparing people old grandmas to dirtbag R. Kelly? He degraded these young girls, forced them to participate in unmentionable things. They were his slaves. Asked when they could eat. Had a bucket in each room for them to toilet in. Are you kidding me? Those grandparents were not out there turning kids into sex slaves.
Girl…Brandy was WAY bigger than Aaliyah. If Aaliyah was such a big deal, why’d her last album perform so poorly? People weren’t going out to get it until AFTER she died. DC was doing just fine as well. BTW it’s “there” as in “There would be no DC or Brandy without Aaliyah” not “It would be no…”
Bahaaawaaahaaaa…never saw this…look he hustlin some bean pies…????-GETCHO ASS OUT THE PULPIT and sing from the sidelines
Until this documentary, i thought i read Aaliyah s mother had passed. I never heard nothing from the dad either? Are they still married?
You know what??
I did like their songs but I wore Pleasure P cd all the way out. But I realized Tank wrote a lot of my fav songs on there. It also, explains why I like Omarion’s song O and why Dave Hollister stayed in my cd player. Tank is really the General.
I’m surprised every last one of em didnt buin up? in that pulpit.
Thinking back, i did like two songs from Omariob( can’t recall them) & i liked the song he did with bow wow’s crazy azz.
My grandmother was 22 when she married. I’m 21 years older than my first child.
OMG He is a filthy person. I just visualized everything you just said, made my ache for those girls. Would not surprise me if he had hidden young kids with him. I’m talking young, young.
Thinking the same. Just keep your mouth shut till the tour ends.
*singing 12 play behind the DJ booth* this was SO worth my 24 minutes….
????? I’m SOOOOOO over this fake outrage
Brandy and A aliyah came out around the same time. Maybe a year difference. Not sure how Aaliyah paved the way for Brandy. When I want to be down dropped, Brandy blew up and had way more shine than Aaliyah.
How does R kelly write music for people when he can’t read or write?? Like how does that work?? Does he pay someone to do it for him?? How was he able to even break into the industry illiterate AND unable to add??? QTNA
Exactly!!! I didn’t even know Kelly wrote those songs for them.
It baffles me why Aaliyah gets so much hate with people down playing her groundbreaking appeal and talent that open the doors for other girls in her age range. Maybe her looks was just too much for other girls to handle. She had her pick of ANY man she wanted & she was envied for it. Because of her alluring looks at such a young age.
Has to be by ear although she did say she taught him later I thought.
He can a little..just write the lyrics or tape them
Me Toooooo… the new me too movement is being tired of the rkelly ?
Stop it! Nobody’s hating on Aaliyah, just speaking the truth. As for envy, I don’t know of anyone who was envious her. Most people at the time, talked about her getting sexed up by Kelly real young, and their illegal marriage. Nobody was envious of that.
Some of the artist need rkelly, when was the last time they had a hit, say what u want, rkelly cd’s, you don’t even have to skip a dam song, from tp, to tp2, chocolate factory, etc. Omarion Chile call r Kelly so you can get a top selling hit that last… I don’t even know what this Chile sing, lmaooo, just know he an artist, and was with that group with the boys with big braids, I THINK…LOL
Give it 2 weeks they will be on to something else….like they do everything else.
Don’t forget sam cooke, arthea franklin
You witnessed this?
I think that is what he’s trying to do. Omarion thinks he is better than B2K. The problem is when he first left he still had some of those fans but then the fans outgrew him. I mean this literally once my daughter got older O didn’t appeal to her. All the short ones from the Scream tour days are struggling with getting older fans because they seemed to not have matured. He twirled over to Rick Ross and they rolled his lil azz out of there.
This breaks race barriers. Parents have allowed young girls to get with older men for money or to take care of them for years. Hugh Hefner had a mansion full of them. R. Kelly had a house full of them. Where are the charges against R. Kelly? Is he guilty? I don’t know. But I’m not going to make a decision based on a biased documentary.
I’m sure not, but it just sounds good. To go with the masses. Like most do..wait on another big story, they will drop kelly, pop the cd back in , and focus on the next big thing the media put out for them…its call the recycle mind, it just goes in circles. Never coming to real understanding. Most are selective outrage, they don’t care about this story or r kelly..lol
I haven’t even see the documentary, I’m just listenening to folks mad, glad, sad and happy..shrugs
Right. We’ve all known that R. Kelly has walked the line for years. He married a teenage Aaliyah but everyone rocked to the music he wrote for her and jumped up to do the Chicago stepping dance to his song. These fake protesters are the same folks shaking their butts to the song, Back and Forth.
He was on a reality show a couple of years ago and had a little hit out. I can’t even remember the name of it now. However, R. Kelly has classic hits. Sure he’s creepy, but he was acquitted and no new charges have been filed. So I’m going to keep enjoying his music.
Lol, yep..i just look and laugh…
LOL! Believe everything they see. Apparently, R. Kelly has a new webpage called, Surviving the Lies.
Faux outrage
Wow it’s gonna be hard for a lot of these celebrities considering r. Kelly wrote most of their big hits. Those 3 songs alone are b2k biggest songs, how can they leave those out.
I didn’t even know r. Kelly wrote those songs.
He’s beyond creepy. He’s a pedophile creep. Please don’t support him anymore.
Good question. I suppose he had cage keepers to do that as well.
This is definitely a false narrative comparing teenage consensual sex usually with other teenagers and manipulative coaxed sex with an adult male. Two different things.
That is exactly why children don’t come forth when molested, rape victims never speak, sexual harassment goes unpunished and so forth. Silence is deadly. The time to speak is now.
My cousin (a male) raised that point that musically, the impact RKelly made, it will be equal to turning off the radio and never listen to music from the 90’s til now. I think there should be a plan we all can get on board to punish RKelly publicly until the law punishes him legally.
I’m talking about Omarion statement re: r. Kelly not molestation victims
?
Listening to his music right now
Please. He deserves several backSLAPS OFF the game board entirely for first saying his son wasn’t black and had good hair at 3 days old.
He deserves one more slap for the man bun with his Eddie Murphy nippled bird chest. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/cc034ca2cda83f26a926c0836de9ae3db62bbcf8cd5adeacf8fbdb300500404a.gif https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9e18f36abe7fb23fa0bc3157ad7b87695b633d8d80411784586662f686f1aab6.gif
His marriage license to a child of 15 was acquitted too. Didn’t change the fact. Didn’t know victimization had expiration dates but hey ?
And all the demonic spirits playing with the airwaves are listening right along next to you out of sight.
Perversion minor eruption may be his next greatest hit. But as long as the beat is good I guess that fiddle about diddling victims is ok. ? https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/164ad7cc338a739f7fc2d94294a2ffb67b75ae66872436dbe732bfb54ee4ae16.gif https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/07f81ac9c2588cee880b3fc6008704386cbb58a19264b743ae7f936c8fefde2c.gif
If Aaliyah had to marry him for an album.. what the heck did her parents /mom do to get the masters to his albums?
I’ll wait.
Poor Aaliyah. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/5cbbaec086e8e0b572e55ead0005321beaa0b3d1e2c479375fd6147b901f8366.gif
TMT don’t this…….get on your nerves about he/she/it has worked with?!
Ok, my sister raised the same point, which gave me pause!
He wrote so many songs, why should an artist not be able perform songs written by Kelly! Did they throw away all of Phil Spector’s publishing catalogue? SHOULD Maxwell never sing “Fortunate” again?
People can’t make R. Kelly and EVERYONE he’s ever written for never use his songs, while they continue to have out-of-wedlock children, babies by thugs their same age, who they will have to take care of, allow their children to sing-along to the most sexually explicit lyrics and music videos from their faves, like the hive does!
Move in a different man into their homes, as seasons change, some they meet on FB (real talk), smoke, drink, and cuss, and think they’re not making them vulnerable to sexual predators!
The outrage is going too far! It’s sad so many young girls and women have been abused, and continues in this moment! Why does everyone have to pay for what KELLY DID?
We [Black people] love band-wagon issues! But, the real moral of this story is [NOW] better assisting victims EVERYWHERE to overcome their wounds and scars of sexual and mental abuse!
Taking down R. Kelly isn’t even a band-aid because there no indictments at this time! When this dies down, his music will continue to be played, not that it ever stopped!
We (our community) never get to the root cause to solve or attempt to resolve issues like girls being attracted to sexual predators or bad boys, not feeling loved, unstable homes, why sex before marriage, deadbeat dads, bum-moms needs this same kind of outrage!
That’s a whole lot of publishing and songs! So, what, we’re not supposed to listen to some of the last music Whitney Houston sang because he wrote It?
Did they pulled all of creepy Phil Spector’s music as a songwriter and producer?
Parents raise your daughters, find your own self-worth and esteem, overcome your wounds as strong and proud survivors of abuse to stop the cycles and vulnerability are girls are in across the globe!
To punish R Kelly publicly won’t happen enough to satisfy many because people have taken various sides of this whole issue.
Remember the allegations are NOT new, the details laid out in a docu-series is!
How about using this story and headlines to band our girls from worshipping celebrities, talking to them, and instilling in them just how special and valuable they are!
Well, you better toss out just about all the music the world listens to from classical to jazz to the blues, to rock and roll, Motown to the 70s, 80s and 90s, 2000s Music!
You will find most of the critically acclaimed or those deemed musical genius were often self-destructive, perverted, abusive, and had sex with underage girls, not condoning, just the reality!
Research or Google!
Victims need a new a blueprint (seize this opportunity), empathy, encouragement, healing because after Kelly’s descent, how do we stop the unseen predators or heal wounds?
Leave Aaliyah out of this…? what’s going with Rkelly has nothing to do with her overall!! Let her soul r.i.p!!
Yes continue to support a pedophile because he makes good music that wasnt intended for women but young girls….sickening!! Aaliyah only first album was because of him sadly but her best music wasnt…thanks to timberland and missy for bringing out her true sound…Not the pied piper!
He did get get a backbone! He stood up not for himself but for his daughter!
Because these times in social media celebrities are required to speak up!
Couldn’t have put it better myself.
Move in silence O……smh
?
A year later?! It’s been at least 7 for me. You musta been the foreman huh???
?You gonna get me locked up.?
Realistically R. Kelly has written and produced for many artists.
All my peers are upstanding citizens; we don’t fugg with 5/0?
LMBO yea folks be reaching ?
“thrice”?
I’m wondering can I call out if it snows?
*prays for snow*??
Thanks Shug. ?
Foolishness, social media is out of control.
1. Those songs he wrote for B2K were not that good
2. While I am happy ppl are paying attention to this issue, how in the hell did they miss it when it was first reported? I really hope, for most, that this outrage is not fake.
They were on Video Soul Gold, looking like High School “cutest couple”, in their matching outfits. R. Kelly comment about getting a white jeep, a reference to the O.J. Simpson chase, let’s you know the HE knew that he was doing dirt. Sent
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=TGCHvpMco3A
I concur!
Does the song writer get paid every time their song is performed by an artists? RK has already been paid, and cashed the checks on these B2K songs, will it really matter NOW if they perform them?
There is a very long list or black males in Entertainment that you can throw in R Kellys pile of burning wood, the most notible would be Dr. Dre( alot are unware Dre’s first baby Lisa Johnson was 14 along with his other well known abuses of women), Jay Z (Foxy Brown, Rihanna, Aaliyah, Terria Maria,) Chris Stokes, Russell Simmons, Africa Bambatta….this is really a short list of most scandalist KNOWN, there are plenty more just not known to public at large but well known in the Industry.
Then there is a laundry of Artist with lyrics over the years that should have received condemnation and never gotten airplay. As a community we just havent held black males in Entertainment to any kind of standard morally, or eithically regarding degradation and abuse of black women and teen boys to be quite honest.
Not gonna lie, i was a b2k fan back n the day. None of the guys were necessarily fine 2 me, but i loved the music. Especially that girlfriend song.
I wonder if Chris Stokes will also profit from this tour…
R Kellys concerts and a ton of other very overt sexual black performers that include very sexual stage shows, and raunchy sexual lyrics, have been packed to the brim with underage and teen age fans. Alot of us historically we (adults, parents), havent drawn the line. This is as a good time as ever for our community to start drawing a line in the sand.
R Kelly R Kelly come out come out come out where ever you are….lmao He hiding with them girls.
I still can’t get over his performance I saw with him harmonizing to Ethiopians asking them if they had their shots and passports and if they wanted to go back with him to America…..lmao Anybody see that video? If not you missing out on a great chuckle.
Wow, I never knew Robert wrote Fortunate. Well, they are still showing movies Harvey produced. So the artista should be able to live
He might as well take it a step further and stand up for his band members as well who claimed they were raped. Keep it ?all across the board.
Probably will…he’s been telling folks that’s coming for him to go buy tickets
Verbally writing and putting sounds together for good melodies
You don’t even have to skip a song on his albums #TRUTH and chocolate factory has two cd’s.
You’re welcome
Right, everybody need to stop then.
You’re right, she was a victim
This artist is on tour… all of this stuff has been set.
You don’t like it… don’t go!
If it were me… the show would go on! PERIOD!
This is ridiculous.
Future collaborations should be targeted.
Good Question!
I totally agree. He knows what time it is when it comes to R. Kelly, Chris Stokes and many other predators in the industry. He sang
R. Kelly produced songs in the past knowing his history!!
Ummm so basically without the R Kelly songs, they have nothing to perform? Cause the songs mentioned above were all of the hits!
I heard, they own the masters “as part of the shht that went down with Aaliyah”…. draw your own conclusion. I also “heard” that he ‘had’ her mom too…
O had a hit song called “Posed to be” with Chris Brown and Tinashe or Jhene Aiko one if those chicks… I just like Chris Brown’s part in the song. “Breeeeeezay”
LMAO… It’s not funny but still…?
You forgot to mention Jerry Lee Lewis marrying his 14 year old cousin. Very strange indeed… Right on with the rest of your post.
I know Bill Cosby is breathing a sigh of relief. He’s been in the slammer since September and people dropped him like a hot potato afterwards.
Now that you mentioned it I was wondering how awkward it was going to be for Raz B and Lil Fizz to face Chris Stokes after years of the molestion allergations. Do they just let bygones be bygones because money is on the table.?????
” It’s five in the morrrrrniiing”?. I couldn’t resist.?
Lol
They are probably in such a poor financial shape that they are willing to put it aside, for now at least.
Just put on the song “happy people”, in a room with the people that hate him now (since media got involved), and see won’t they dance their azz off…lol
“To America” (america) lol
I laughed when I saw it but he really has no chill. You can see how untouchable he believes he is.
I saw on Youtube that Fizz is dating O’s babymama Apryl and that she accompanied him on a trip to Chicago that someone else had to pay for. This is coming from Moniece Fizz’s ex baby mama.
ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyye that’s my ish right there. Reenaface, we’re moving you to VIP.
Yes. I saw that summons the second time and got pissed. My energy shifted from being called finally the first time. But 7 years, oh yeah go on and do your civic duty.
I’ll take it. That was the same back in the day.?
Should have been quiet…. shut up sometimes, you didn’t have to bandwagon period. Know he ain’t mad anyways! lol
Sounds like some love and hip hop mess and i believe they are affiliated with that show from what i see on the blogs.
Yep… It’s a whole mess with Fizz annoncing that he told Mona that he was done with love n hip hop. I know he as the tour but what else is he going to do with for money. And O doesn’t speak to Apryl at all she said he’s behind on child support.
my brother knew one of the (grown) chicks he messed with and she would write lyrics for him. some people cannot read music; they literally memorize and play by ear and it’s nothing to them. the music is in their heads.
AFTER his tour is like saying, “After this pack of cigarettes I’m going to quit smoking.”
I feel that the amount of income tax I pay, it should already cover Everything!?
(Only half joking)?
We all have our gifting, Sushi…
Okaaaay!! ????
All that money and resources, he should get a tutor to teach him.
And you better not change for no one…..
Wait.. They Survived Chris Stokes … Never Mind
You idiots are unfrickinbelievble. Our race is doomed ?
Maybe he will get one while he is rotting in jail ?
No bump bump bump
Oh wait he said AFTER!! Boy bye!!
He said after the tour ??lol
Yes, everytime a song is played or performed the writer gets a check from Ascap. The R. has so many songs out there, hell he wrote Fortunate for Maxwell, we might as well forget that the 90’s and the early 2000’s even existed. It is so upsetting because it’s like you have to erase an entire 20 years from your life.
Why, no one wants to hear that new crap on the radio. I’m not giving up fortunate from Maxwell based on allegations.
And the girl that said she walked in on them having sex, if she lied about that she wrong and if she kept that secret for over 20 years why she wait to get on Lifetime to say something..oh and Sparkle dropped a single the last day the show aired.
This bum needs to sing any song he can, even humpty dumpty!
I totally agree to this statement, until there is actual proof then I will continue to listen to. And they better hope there is truth because I am so sick of Black Men having there legacy destroyed because someone has some type of Vendetta and it has been like this with Lifetime and R. Kelly since the Aliyah movie they did. All the parents on there talking about when this happened and there daughter going to see him but no one bum rushed his house, no parent tried to beat him up are fight him over their daughter but chose to do a documentary. If it is true then everyone who interviewed was guilty and should be brought up on charges.
Well that would be 20 years of demonic spirit that would not be limited to just R. Kelly, lets throw some gospel songs in there to from gospel artist who have had issues. So In that case lets just turn off music completely.
A lot of you all up here saying stuff like you all was there and believing everything you see on tv because it added some soft background music. You work for Lifetime huh? You have been popping up on a few post concerning this.
Wow his catalogue is huge… I didn’t know he’d written that song either.
LOL. You been cutting up eery day since the new year. I c’aint with you in ’19
Yes it is, I gave up long time ago
IDK. Don’t like them or care enough about Aaliyah to research it.
“Without Aaliyah there’d be no Beyonce”
“Aaliyah paved the way for Beyonce”
“Aaliyah was a better anger than Beyonce”
Now I’m known to come for Bey for real but I find these claims to be ridiculous. Aaliyah was a moderate studio singer crossing between Janet Jackson’s whisper singing and Rihanna’s confusion.
Chile folks were rolling their eyes, looking away and stuff. It was a hilarious mess.
What preacher? The poser? He may be wearing the cloth but none of them are of the CLOTH.
i’m just trying to keep myself in good spirits in the midst of these cave demons (and yall are a tremendous help!) https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/e86501847072dcba783eea0bbb2c002d3ed3d888581b08556155899f7897582f.gif
STOP hating! It’s a church service for GOD’s sake. Show some REPECT!!
So because something or someone is present in the church for the sake of God things can’t be spoken of? Does that apply to Eddie Long – sex with child boys, Jamal Bryant – extramarital affairs, and etc? My original comment is about R. Kelly so we can’t speak on his abuse of women and children because he sang in church? Really Music? Really?
LOL. I feel they’re everywhere. Where I live the area is upper middle class. I’ve noticed this behavior over a decade or so in the stores. The others will leave their kids down the aisle and their carts with their purses up the way until a black person comes down the aisle then they call Harry to come closer to them or grab their carts. I’ve been thinking about wearing a T-shirt when I go to the grocery that explains 2 things to them.
You know some people love talking out of their a**. I’m not known to cape for Beyonce either, but let’s not get delusional. Aaliyah was beautiful and talented but couldn’t hold a candle to Beyonce. She was a studio artist, with a so so voice and no range. To top it all off, her stages performances were lack luster. Beyonce is a beast on stage, and was already apart of a wildly successful Destiny’s Child. Plus she was considered the star of the group. As for Brandy, she and Monica came out around the same time as Aaliyah, and they both ran circles around her. While Brandy and Monica were setting the charts on fire, Aaliyah was trying to rebrand herself after R Kelly. So I’m not sure how she paved the way for Brandy.
Only GOD can judge!
Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones.
LOLOLLS!
Right!CTFU!
I LOVE me some Omarion. He doesn’t have to sing R. Kelly songs to pay the rent. I gotchu boo! ?
Pretty Much!
She didn’t “walked in”….the door flew opened.
Right! Next year in 2020 when I start exercising I will be doing all Beyonce’s routines to lose weight. The only thing Aaliyah and Bey had In common with Bey is that neither can act.
For real though ???. Beyonce can’t act to save her damn life smh. So I went and googled Aaliyah’s albums sales, at the time of her death. By the time she died, Aaliyah hadn’t even sold half a million albums. By 2001 Brandy and both Monica, had already sold millions of albums. Aaliyah was not the power house that people are making her out to be.
LOL!!!!
You as well as the rest of the phony disgusting, disturbing people in the industry are in for one hell of judgement day. The bible says nothing about the most high being the only judge. It says he hands down the final judgment, which is death! Choke on your lies you lying phony Hollywood demon!
oh honey, i grew up with these types (we didn’t have the money, but we shared the zip code, Lol). i can clutch my purse and blink and sniff with the best of them. how they glare at our babies is how i glare at theirs. i do the emergency door locking if i’m sitting in my car and they’re walking down the sidewalk. i just do all of their stuff to them before they get a chance to do it to me, TUH!
#DEAD
Why is everyone judging RKelly like they without sin?? If people stop fudging with others cause of the sins they comit no body woud be fudging with no body. He has to answer for his sins we dont.
