What Happened To R Kelly?

Back in the 90s, R Kelly was known as the king of R&B. He revived a dying genre with his monstrous hits like Bump n Grind, I Believe I Can Fly, and Ignition. Kelly was not only a singer he had a cultural impact, he made R&B mainstream.

Usher Raymond or R. Kelly

Many critics and fans are saying Usher has replaced R. Kelly as the king of r&b. Bobby Brown confidently proclaimed the title of King of R&B as well did Jacquees. Although Usher carry the lead in most hits created.

Both R. Kelly and Usher being named king are understandable. R. Kelly is one of the most prolific artists, composers, and producers of all times.

Were not saying Usher is better than R. Kelly or anything, we just want to know which artist would you choose to listen to first? You can comment your answer below, but before that, lets learn a little about both artist.

Why R. Kelly Is The King Of R&B

It is not hard to figure out why R. Kelly is the King of R&B! Who do you know who has not had sex to Kelly music or even better, made a child to his songs?

R. Kelly has been named by fans consistently as they engaged in the debate over which male artist is considered the best. Even during a Christmas party in Toronto, Dave Chappelle declared that R. Kelly is the King of R&B.

Kelly is known for songs including "I Believe I Can Fly", "Bump N' Grind", "Your Body's Callin'", "Gotham City", "Ignition (Remix)", "If I Could Turn Back the Hands of Time", "The World's Greatest", "I'm a Flirt (Remix)", and "Trapped in the Closet".

This Musical Artist May Be The New Face Of The Music Industry

The music industry is changing very rapidly. With all the violence, protesting, and viruses going around, could the music industry need a change in pace? In these days, the music industry is having a racial war as musicians are using there voice to speak for the people.

I'm Sure R. Kelly Ain't Trying To Hurt The Jurors In The Case

Is this another attempt by the Feds to put a strain on the R&B star R. Kelly? The feds in R. Kelly's case want to keep potential jurors protected -- even by armed guards, at times, because they feel Kelly's legal team poses a threat to jurors, but the singer's team's not having it.

The feds filed legal docs in the Eastern District of NY requesting the jurors remain anonymous and partially sequestered because they fear Kelly's team could mess with the jurors.

In the docs, obtained by TMZ, the feds say they want the jurors' identities, addresses and places of employment to be kept under wraps from the defense and prosecutors. They also want the U.S. Marshals to escort the jury in and out of the courthouse, and make the jurors eat lunch together so they're not bombarded by intense media coverage.

R. Kelly Pleads Not Guilty

R. Kelly has pleaded not guilty to a set of federal sex-trafficking charges leveraged against him in New York in mid-March, including those that he knowingly spread herpes to two people. He entered the plea via teleconference from a Chicago federal jail on Thursday.

As the coronavirus pandemic has escalated, Kelly has requested early release from prison twice, and was most recently denied on April 22. Kelly was indicted on multiple state and federal sex-abuse charges in New York, Illinois, and Minnesota last year. He has so far pleaded not guilty to all charges against him.

Who Will Be Named The Official King Of R&B?

R&B is far from dead. In 2019, Jacquees anointed himself the undisputed ruler of R&B and fans did not agree. Commenters mentioned Chris Brown and said he's today's true King of R&B.

R. Kelly has been named by fans consistently as they engaged in the debate over which male artist is the King of R&B. Known as "The King of Soul," Otis Redding was one of the greatest R&B singers of all time.

R. Kelly, Stevie Wonder, Chaka Khan, Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, and Mariah Carey help to make R&B more popular today than what it ever has been. 90's R&B performances felt more intimate. The music was so great that the artist could literally just coast their performance and the crowd would still feel it.

Singer R. Kelly allegedly gave a 19-year-old fan a sexually transmitted disease by having unprotected sex with her despite knowing that he had herpes, new court documents claim. I'm like. com-on, are they doing everything to make R. Kelly look bad or not? This is just a bad look for the singer.

So recently, new documents were filed in Brooklyn Federal Court, that went on to claim that Kelly met with Doe after the performance at a hotel room that he booked for her and had unprotected sex with her.
