dis honestly doesn’t come at a surprise but hey da dude is a millionaire sooo…

OK….I CAN BELIEVE ABT NOT BEING ABLE TO DO THIS,THAT AND THE THIRD IF YOU HAVE HATE IN YOUR BLOOD….BUT HE NEEDS TO GET SOME READING CLASSES SO THAT HE CAN READ THE NUMBERS WHERE THE AGE IS AT ON THE FEMALES ID CARD…..LOL

Ok, I might be a little oblivious to this subject, but how do you write if you can’t read??? I’m having a hard time reconciling that one.

THIS IS OLD NEWS!!! VIBE DID A STORY ON HIM BEING ILLITERATE 7 YEARS AGO!!! THE MAN IS TALANTED AND I CANT WAIT TO SEE HIM OCT 30th in HOUSTON,TX!!!

Hm….well, he’s still the shyt!

Is he doing this to bring light to the situation or to tell kids “hey ya don’t ned to read or need school as long as ya got a good jum shot or can produce hump and grind music?”

Whats the moral of the story?

Not only is it old news, but who cares… Long live Kells, u need to produce Maxwell ya’ll would kill these R&Wack artist

I am with “_A_” how is he a songwriter if he can’t read??? To write you have to know how to SPELL and (generally speaking) to spell means you have to know how to properly sound out words (not to mention IDENTIFY them)…therefore READ them. Help me out here folks. He doesn’t speak well (but hell that is a lot of artist…lol) but he is damn talented. Not only does he need to produce Maxwell but I hope he snatches up fellow Chicagoan Donnell Jones and grab my boy Dwele too while he is at it. I am so tired of these UNDERrated artist getting left in the dust (smh)!!!

Man I don’t give a f**k he is still a genius I love him

fukc this pedophile! he don’t need to teach kids anything!!!!

He can hire a bunch of PHD’s to read for him

Yea this is WAY old. Seems like these gossip sites use a man being open and honest about his struggle to read and write and turn it into gossip. What u should be amazed by is that despite that he is a musical genius. But as always the tape he was cleared of will be the only thing on people’s minds. smh.

@_A_
He said he usually freestyles. Or he will have someone write down the words for him.

Well he is a product of the Chicago Public Schools system…… wait a minute, so am I. However, I can read and I did get a decent education. However, I respect and admire R. Kelly for coming out a publicly stating this. He didn’t have to.

Well, that certainly explains his ridiculous lyrics. You remind me of my jeep? The sex that we’re having? Ugh! How this perv became a superstar has always baffled me.

Sadly, its more haters in the world than there R positive people….everybody makes mistakes….nobodies perfect….nobody….and 4 sum reason people love 2 see others doing badd, Just 2 make theirselves feel better, Sadd, just look at the comments below…”…Clowns…” Amazing how u can hate on sumbody who’s doing good with their life, why just because U cant do the same…”people R sad” He believed in hisself & didnt listen to “haters” and look at the successful person he is 2day….believe in your self cause nobody else will, if U dont! “Much respect 2 Success”

(FROM ANOTHER FORUM)

SADLY it doesn’t matter WHAT you are doing, good/bad/ or worse, as long as you are getting money that’s all that matters to N!GGERS!!!!!!! STUPID, IGNORANT,WHITEWASHED, ALWAYS CALLING SOMEONE A “HATER” FOR HAVING A DIFFERENT OPINION AND NOT BEING A SHEEP LIKE THEM, PORCH MONKEY A$$ N!GGERS!!!! more skin bleach is NEEDED in amerikkka for you coons!
EYE’ m a BORN LEADER. NEVER following in sheeps footsteps.

So his songwriting credits should go the ghost writers. I wonder how many artists in the industry actually write their own songs since they get the credit for songs they hire people to write.

@NYCsmoove

what r u talking about????? He writes his own songs he just doesnt write them down. People who can spell better than he can write the words he tells them to write.

those on this site are the same fool azz niggahs who applaud this man for having sex with an under aged girl and then back him up for not knowing how to read.seems like the ones who want to back him up are just barely makin it when it comes to reading and writing themselfs.you would think mr kelly would say to himself(LOOK HOW MUCH BETTER MY SONDS COULD BE IF I COULD READ AND WRITE)he could describe shyt much better because he would know and relaize what the fuch he’s talking about.now he just says stupid shyt on a recording and knows it’ll sale cause dumb fuch niggahs will but anything,and he’ll get the fools who feel sorry for his azz buying his shyt cause he cant read like them.

HB this is old news & he did say he believed in hisself & LEARNED HOW TO READ & that he did GRADUATE HIGH SCHOOL & IF PEOPLE ARE GOING TO POINT FINGERS-AT R.KELLY,THEN THEY BETTER POINT AT ALOT MORE PEOPLE. BECAUSE ITS ALOT OF STARS OUT HERE WHO CANT READ AT THERE LEVEL OR NOT AT ALL & ITS NOT JUST PEOPLE WHO SING OR RAP-YOU GOT ALOT OF PEOPLE WHO PLAY SPORTS WHO CAN’T READ AT THERE LEVEL. AND HE WAS CLEARED ON THE RAPE CHARGE & HAVING SEX,WITH AN MINOR. ITS ASHAME HOW PEOPLE GRAB,SH*T AND RUN WITH IT…AS IF R.KELLY WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO HAD A CHARGE LIKE THIS. AND WHEN YOUR IN ENTERTAINMENT-YOU GOT PEOPLE CRYING EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN-ONLY TO GET MONEY. SOME PEOPLE EVEN USE THERE KIDS TO,PLAY ROLES IN SAYING-SOMETHING HAPPEN WHEN IN FACT IT DIDNT. SAD BUT-TRUE.

@NiceGuy180
How do you know that for sure. Have you ever seen him writing? Many of these artists who take songwriting credits don’t write their lyrics. Ask Beyonce. She got busted for trying to take credit for song she didn’t write.

R Kelly is a chicken hawk!

For people who are criticizing R.Kelly or his ability to read and write maybe you should learn how to use proper grammar and spelling yourselves. Also, try proofreading before you submit. ;]

It’s NEVER 2 Late!

WAT COMES TO MIND IS……………..I BELIEVE I CAN FLY,I BELIEVE I CAN TOUCH THE SKY,DO WAT U DO R KELLY,KEEP GIVIN IT TO US(GOOD MUSIC).

who cares he rich and he successful

R. KELLY,,,, I HAVE TO SAY, U AIN’T THE ONLY DUMMY CANT’ READ,,, I COULD’NT READ WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL ALSO, LOLLOL,, BUT YOU MADE IT,,, AND THE FIRST BOOK I EVER READ IN THE “”BIBLE”" THAT’S WHEN I LEARNED HOW TO READ,, I CAN GIVE GOD THE GLORY FOR THAT,, THE DIFFERNCE IN YOU AND ME, IS YOU ARE RICH IN MONEY, AND I’AM RICH IN ”CHRIST”,, WHICH ONE WOULD YOU CHOOSE??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

DON’T GET ME WRONG NOW!!!!!!!!! WE NEED THE MONEY ALSO,,, BUT THE MONEY AND DON’T KNOW JESUS,,, THAT MAKES THE FOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

even child molesters have educational shortfalls! we should all look to him for nothing but baby making music! thx for all the KIDS r kelly, now leavem alone!!!!

A lot of want to be, “Rappers, Playas, etc.,” can say the word’s B***H, H**, but can’t spell a lick! Does not shock me in the slightest bit! R-K does not have to worry too much about that in his life, being he’s gotton as far as he’s gotton! What be BETTER/STAY sharp in is COMMON SENSE, being he is in a Carreer a/k/a Entertainment he’s got to watch who he allow’s in his circle, who’s circle he’s in PLUS the HEIFERS! He MUST Watch the Heifers & think ALWAYS with the head with the brain in it!!!

_______________________@Picture 10..This nigga been clearly hanging out with prince.
smh@niggas buying each other matching outfits

Well..its Kels! Shoot wateva I still don’t own none of his music

WTF! IS UP WIT THE BLOND HAIR. JUST ANOTHER PUBLICITY STUNT/STORY. WHO CARES!

Aww, poor R Kelly. That’s so sad. Maybe someone should give him his first book to read called, “HOW NOT TO PEE ON YOUNG UNDERAGE GIRLS VOL. 1″!!!

@ pic #6, The Brown Hornet is alive and well in 2009.

wat is on his 4 head on pic 11???

Lol! Brown Hornet! Nice! Hell, while he was peeing on her, they could’ve studied together! Probably about the same reading level, no? “See Dick pee! Pee, Dick, pee!” Lmao!

I really don’t understand how in this day and age we got people that can’t read and write. Every drop out I’ve ever known can read and write.

THIS NIGGA WAS RICH FOR HOW LONG AND COULDNT GET A GED OR COLLEGE OR A TUTOR OR SOMETHIN????? LMAO THINK ABOUT IT!!!!!

Is he dyslexic?

Now we’ll have somebody come on right after me and say, “So what? He paid!” We are SO going to hell in a handbasket…PEACE.

Who give a fuuuuuuuuuu he needs to go some where and hide and never come back out.

Who give a fuuuuuuuu he need to go some where and hide and never come back out

he had time to f**k them little girls but he couldn’t learn how to read? that should tell u what kind of person he is. I really don’t care about him.

LMAO UMMMMMMMM HE DIDNT RAPE THEM KIDS…THEY WAS THERE CUZ THEY WANTED 2 BE

He’s a pedophile and a functional illiterate and yet he is still talking down to you. “…I love you. That’s why I keep doing what I do.” Please. In our culture we too quickly and readily exalt and hold in high favor the rich and the famous. In this dude’s case, you all have made him so important an icon that he can defile one of your children (and that’s just the one you saw on the video), have the whole world bear witness to his shameful act, and still he feels he has “y’all beat”. . . .I mean, “HE DIDNT RAPE THEM KIDS…THEY WAS THERE CUZ THEY WANTED 2 BE” kinda says it all, right?

He looks like a fag in picture#10 and what the f uck is that on his forehead on picture #11

I know alot of you are not going to like what-I have to say & its your right to do so. Anyway)Can anyone read R.Kelly statement above & point out to me,WHERE HE SAID-HE CAN NOT READ NOR WRITE,RIGHT NOW? HE SIAD IN HIGH SCHOOL HIS TEACHER TOLD HIM HE WAS GOING TO BE ONE OF THE GREATEST-WRITERS OF ALL TIME.(THAT HE IS) R.KELLY DIDNT SAY HE STILL CAN’T READ NOR WRITE-RIGHT NOW.SOME PEOPLE KILL ME-BY GRABBING THE COW BY THE A$$ AND RUNNING ACROSS THE FIELD-BEFORE THEY REALIZE IT WAS A BULL. THINK PEOPLE WAS ANY OF US THERE TO SEE R.KELLY RAPE OR HAVING SEX,WITH ANYONE? I KNOW I WASN’T SO-IM NOT GOING TO SAY HE DID ANYTHING WRONG. I CAN SAY THAT YOUNG GIRLS ARE OUT DOING THINGS THEY KNOW-THEY SHOULDN’T BE DOING & LYING ABOUT THERE AGE-ALL THE TIME. R.KELLY IS NOT THE ONLY ONE OUT HERE,WITH CHARGES LIKE THIS ONE & HE WANT BE THE LAST. HELL NO-IM NOT SAYING ITS RIGHT FOR NO MAN TO TOUCH,KISS,HAVE SEX,DAMN SURE NOT PISS NOR SH*T ON ANY GIRL,YOUNG GIRL,TEEN,NOR A WOMAN-IN THAT CASE(PISS & SH*T). I AM SAYING-IF YOUR NOT THERE TO SEE IT OR KNOW FOR TRUE FACTS DON’T PUT NOBODY THREW A RAPE CASE,EVEN THOU YOU(HE OR SHE) DIDN’T RAPE NOR-KNOW THE AGE OF THAT PERSON CAN HARM THEM FOR THE REST OF THERE LIFE. QUESTION-FOR ALL OF YOU WHO THINK OR FEEL R.KELLY RAPED OR DID ANYTHING TO ANY OF THESE UNDERAGE GIRLS-ASK YOURSELF HOW DID THEY GET THERE,HOW DID THEY GET IN THE CLUB,WHERE IN THE HELL WAS THE PARENTS,AND IF R.KELLY CAME UP TO YOU OR ANY ONE ELSE FOR THAT MATTER & ASK CAN I TAKE YOUR DAUGHTER,WITH ME TO MAKE A RECORD OR MOVIE…ETC-WILL YOU OR WILL YOU NOT GO,WITH THEM? OR AT LESS ASK QUESTION. AND WHY DO IT ALWAYS COME DOWN TO MONEY? IF ANY MAN RAPED OR DID ANYTHING WRONG TO MY CHILD-F**K THE MONEY,I WOULD WANT HIS BALLS CUT OFF AND PUT DOWN HIS THROAT & I BE THE ONE SMILING-WHILE DOING IT. IM JUST SAYING THATS HOW I LOOK AT THINGS & ITS ALOT OF PEOPLE WHO DRESS & LOOK LIKE R.KELLY-SO ON A TYPE YOU CAN’T REALLY TELL UNLESS YOUR HIS PARENTS OR SOMEONE CLOSE TO HIM TO KNOW.

Rkelly
Love his music and do not like what I hear about the man . I can only hope he gets the help he needs if warranted. I personally find men over 35 sportin cornrows immature but thats just me. I like the new look and most likely will see him in boston next month ( 1st time). I can only hope as he grows in success he will take the time to learn to read. HELL he better least whoever watching the books may not be so forthcoming that would be most unfortunate.

Autumn

trisha_369, I agree with you 100% That is EXACTLY why I am still a fan of his work and listen to his music. Although I did “believe” it was him on the video tape at the time. However, his lawyer created “REASONABLE DOUBT” & in the court of law that is the only responsibility of a defense attorney. The burden of proof fell on the prosecutors and they couldn’t produce. I learned later that those videos were possibly altered or “doctored” to incrimnate him. You never know! Michael Jackson went through the same thing and I don’t believe he molested anyone’s kid but that is just my opinion. At the end of the day we ALL have to be held accountable for our shortcomings, mistakes & sins and when we leave this world we will face God on judgement day (or whoever you choose to serve). I would like to believe he can read now because he would be broke if he was illiterate. There is a lot of paperwork, contracts, and doc**ents involved with being an artist and I’ll be damn if I leave my livelihood to others…I wanna READ and sign off on every thing (lol)!

i love r. kelly.
he’s a musical genius.

R. KELLY,

I THINK THAT YOU ARE RELATED TO ME… TALK TO ME

OMG pictuer # 10 lol

@ trisha_369…i agree with everything you had to say. as i have said before on this site…kids these days are not that innocent. and people who commented below obviously cant read their d*mn selves lol…he didnt say he cant read now. i would think he can read now seeing as he has written so many great songs. and for that reason, i will always love r kelly…at least as a musician lol…

He couldn’t read? But, he could write all of the crap he “wrote” about foreplay and all of his other sexually suggestive lyrics. I think I need to rewind to see why I don’t see all of the talent others see in this man. What is sooooooooooo talented about talking about what you’re gonna do to someone in the bed??? WOW!!! He has been compared to Marvin Gaye?? WHY??? I am sorry, I dont see it. Reading is not just reading the words, either. It’s also about COMPREHENSION! Do you understand what you are reading???? How tragic that we give more kudos to R. Kelly than we do to the nameless people that teach our kids to read.

HOW N THE WORLD HE CAN’T READ N HE WROTE SOME OF HIS MUSIC .THAT’S A LIE TELL ME HOW U DO THAT….IF U WRITE N SPELL U KNO HOW TO READ WAT THE HELL IS THIS…….N/A..

Compared to Marvin gayes???!!!! WTF!!! Marvin had a BETTER tenor voice range that PED KElly! Marvin can just look at a girl and can HAVE her-only OVER the age of 18!

Compared to Marvin Gaye???!!!! WTF!!! Marvin had a BETTER tenor voice range that PED KElly! Marvin can just look at a girl and can HAVE her-only OVER the age of 18!

Oh,ok, now some things are clear, but please burn that mess number 10 and leave the gold alone.

he didn’t say he couldn’t read he said HE DON’T READ MUCH and his COUSINS teased him and said you can’t read right!!! everybody talking bad about him but I bet most of ya’ll asses was listening to ALL of his music!!!

I can teach him to read or anyone who wants to learn but I see he doesn’t need any lesson on how to use a camcorder. Saying 2 Hail mary’s and 3 Our father’s.

11 R. Kelly SexFacts” ™
(Don’t bother reading if you are illiterate as it is a lot of info to digest!)

The R. Kelly case started when Jim DeRogatis, the pop critic at the Chicago Sun-Times, and Abdon M. Pallasch, the paper’s legal reporter, wrote a 3000-word story detailing the Chicago star’s penchant for young girls. It was published way back in December 2000.

The story detailed the first sex suit against Kelly, including the $250,000 out-of-court settlement that resulted. The pair also talked with a woman who said she’d had sex with Kelly as a 15-year-old, and even had sex with him and another girl. According to the story, Kelly met the girls by hanging out with the choir at his ((old)) high school Accusations #’s 1 and 2!

A year later, DeRogatis received a phone call telling him to check his mailbox. In it was a videotape showing Kelly having sex with a young girl. The girl’s aunt identified her, and Kelly. In the tape, the singer called her by her first name; she called him “Daddy.” Accusation #3.

Besides a variety of sex acts, the girl urinates on the floor at “Daddy’s” direction. “Daddy” then urinates into her mouth.

Kelly was sued for an “indecent sexual relationship” in 2000 and 2001 with an Epic records intern, who was 17 at the time. Kelly settled the matter out of court! Accusation #4.

Kelly’s lawyer settled a similar lawsuit that charged Kelly with having sex with yet another girl when she was a minor. (She was named as well.) Accusation #5.

A few months later, the original girl’s aunt, an R&B singer named Stephanie Edwards, who records under the name Sparkle and was once Kelly’s protege, again confirmed, this time in an LA radio interview, that the girl in the video was her niece, who was 14 at the time—and 12 when she met Kelly!

In 1994, Kelly married a 15-year old girl. Married! Her name was Aaliyah Haughton; she was a singer and a protege of Kelly’s with whom, associates have said, he was having an affair. Without telling her what was going on, Kelly arranged an impromptu wedding at a suburban Chicago hotel and then swept her toward a plane. Fortunately, the girl called her parents. They came and got her and, articles have said, the pair never saw each other again. Accusation #6.

As rumors surfaced about the union, Kelly lied about it. But then Vibe magazine found a marriage certificate, on which Haughton’s age was listed as 18. The union was annulled a short time later. (Over the next six years or so Haughton, under the stage name Aaliyah, became a fairly big star before dying in a plane crash in the Bahamas in 2001.)

Aaliyah was the niece of Kelly’s manager, Barry Hankerson. Gladys Knights now Ex-husband. Hankerson worked for Kelly another five years. Barry Hankerson, left the singer’s employ in 1998, writing a letter telling Kelly’s label and associates that the singer “needed psychiatric help for his compulsion to pursue underage girls.” This was five years after Kelly married Hankerson’s underaged niece, the singer Aaliyah.

When the one girl tried to sue Kelly in Chicago, he filed a pre-emptive $30,000 suit against her, charging her with trying to blackmail him. He hired high-powered NY publicist Dan Klores—and got mentions of his lawsuit in several large papers. The girl’s suit went unpublicized!

Reported the Chicago Sun-Times, several years later: “Many celebrities are constantly being harassed and sued, and more often than not, they decide to settle,” a Kelly spokesman working with Klores told the Daily News in 1996. “Kelly has decided, ‘No way.’”

But sources said that Kelly reconsidered that hard-line position and settled with [the girl] on January 23, 1998, just four days after she gave a seven-hour deposition. The sources said that Kelly’s attorneys were shocked by what they heard in the session, and that Kelly quickly ended the case by paying Hawkins a quarter of a million dollars.

In 1998, Kelly picked up a 16-year-old girl at the so-called “Rock ‘n’ Roll McDonalds” in Chicago, just north of the Loop. They had an affair that lasted until she told him she was pregnant, GQ reported; one of Kelly’s associates drove her to the abortion clinic. Accusation # 7.

Kelly grew up on the South Side of Chicago. The profile of Kelly in GQ magazine says that “family members and early associates” said that Kelly had been abused by an older neighborhood man as a child. They also said he had tried to commit suicide as a youth, but covered up the story of the resulting bullet wound by saying some kids who had been trying to steal his bike shot him.

Associates of Kelly have said as well that he can barely read or do basic math; he later confessed in a Vibe magazine story to being illiterate. According to GQ, Kelly is estranged from his siblings and didn’t take care of his mother, who drove a beat-up car and could not pay her medical bills. After she died of cancer in 1997, Kelly declared that he had “found the lord”!

After the original Sun-Times story that revealed his pattern of preying on young girls, Kelly kept getting into trouble! The Chicago lawyer who handled the first four legal cases against Kelly represented at least one other victim as well. Accusation #8!

GQ also reported that Kelly’s personal hygiene left a lot to be desired; he could wear the same clothes for a week, the story said. Said one of his former assistants: “I could never understand the women. I’d be like, ‘How could you be with him when he stink like that?’” Smelly Kelly!

The videotape that really got Kelly into trouble was described as “well lit” and “crystal clear” by those who have seen it. Originally, his contention was that it was not he in the video; that’s what he told the interviewers in a cozy chat on BET in 2002. More recently, his lawyer has said his contention will be that the woman on the tape wasn’t underage.

A British magazine seems to have been the only publication to have asked Jim DeRogatis, the reporter who broke the R. Kelly story originally, about what the tape was like. DeRogatis said:

“[T]his is not Tommy Lee and Pam Anderson. It’s not fun and games. This girl has the disembodied look of a rape victim and he’s urinating in her mouth. It’s a sickening spectacle.” After the video of him having sex with a 14-year-old came to light, according to GQ, Kelly grabbed his “spiritual advisor,” the Rev. James Meeks, of Chicago’s Rainbow Coalition, and went to a Chicago church to sing for kindergartner’s.

There are actually three R. Kelly sex tapes! There’s the one with the girl that is at the center of the case; another of an adult woman, who is suing Kelly for filming her without her knowledge; and a third of another young girl, who as yet has not been identified. Allegation #9.

On one of his CDs, Kelly thanks the girl who has been identified as being on one of his sex tapes. Kelly describes her as his “goddaughter!” To R. Kelly, the oversight of a child’s religious upbringing is not complete until he’s urinated in her mouth…And filmed it.

In 2006, Kelly’s brother Carey went on a radio show, Vibe.com reported, and said R. Kelly had skimped on their mother’s tombstone, because she had refused to leave the siblings’ step-father: “This was the man who raised us when our dad walked away like a coward. My mom didn’t leave him, so when she died, her tombstone was only $500.” He also said Kelly was a bisexual, and had slept with a young relative. Allegation #10.

Many of Kelly’s associates have been quoted saying they thought he was sick, or had an uncontrollable compulsion to have sex with young girls. Perhaps the strongest evidence of this is that, while already under indictment for filming himself having sex with a child, he was found to have in one of his houses a digital camera with new photos of him having sex with an under aged girl. Allegation #11.

No. don’t teach him to read…teach him to keep his hands of UNDERAGED GIRLS! NASTY BASTID…

WHAT PEOPLE DO FOR MONEY!!????

HOW CARES HE, MAKE GUD BABY MAKING MUSIC…..LOL

@ SoSexxiMeMe, I like the way you took the liberty of quoting PART of my statement. You sound really ignorant and childish so I won’t “entertain” you. If you knew anything about technology and digital enhancements you would know ANYTHING can be done on film, photography, and print ads. Your photoshopped default pic is proof of that (LMAO)!!!

Once again-I ask for those of you who hate on R.Kelly-WAS YOU THERE-I KNOW I WASN’T? AND IF HE DID ALL THESE THINGS-WHERE THE HELL WAS THE PARENTS OF ALL THESE KIDS? AND WHO THE HELL WAS THEY LEAVING THEY KIDS,WITH? AND IF HE HAD SEX OR DONE ANYTHING-WITH A UNDERAGE CHILD,WHY IN THE HELL WOULD YOU WANT MONEY OR TAKE MONEY TO BE QUIET? SO-IF THEY TOOK MONEY TO BE QUIET-YOU WOULD NOT HAVE GOTTEN ANY INFORMATION NOR ANY NAMES…THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN PART OF THE AGREEMENT. ALSO SICK ON THE PARENTS HALF. I KNOW FOR FACTS THAT IF ANY MAN DONE ANYTHING LIKE THIS TO A CHILD OF MINE OR A FAMILY MEMBER-I WOULD NOT SEE IT AS A QUICK BUCK-INWHICH THATS ALL THIS IS. I WOULD ASK FOR HIS DICK AND BALLS IN MY HANDS. CASE FACTS PROVE THEY ALL GOT A PRICE ON THEM. ON TOP OF THAT-I SAW THE TYPE AND ALL THOSE GIRLS WAS FU*KING-WHOEVER THE MAN WAS AND IT WAS NOT THERE FIRST TIME. I REMEMBER MY FIRST TIME AND IT DAMN SURE WAS NOT OF ME,SAYING IT FEEL GOOD O’YEAH NOR IM C**ING. MORE LIKE IT HURT STOP. INWHICH NONE OF THESE GIRLS DID AND THE ONE WHO WAS TAKING IT IN THE A$$ (ANAL)WAS ALL INTO IT. FIRST TIME MY A$$ MAYBE- ON TYPE AND FOR THE WORLD TO SEE. DON’T GET ME WRONG-IF THEY WAS KIDNAPPED,FORCED FROM ANYWHERE,TO GO WITH ANY MAN AND SEX ACTS WAS PERFORMED-THEN I WOULD SAY FRY HIS A$$ AND LET THE CHILD OR THE PARENTS OF THE CHILD PULL THE SWITCH. THATS NOT THE CASES HERE. THESE ARE CHILDREN-TEENS,WHO PARENTS DID NOT CARE IF THEY WAS HAVING SEX OR WHERE THEY WAS…UNTIL IT BECAME A MONEY THING. YOU AS A PARENT KNOW YOUR CHILDS BODY AND CAN TELL WHEN SHE OR HE ARE HAVING SEX. AND YOU AS PARENTS SHOULD KNOW WHERE YOUR CHILD IS AT ALL TIMES AND WHEN YOU HADN’T HEARD FROM THEM-THATS WHEN YOU CALL OR CHECK ON THEM AND THEY ARE NOWHERE TO BE FOUND-THEN YOU CALL,THE POLICE AND YOU GO OUT LOOKING. NOT FOR A QUICK DOLLAR-LIKE THE LITTLE BOY WHO PARENTS FORCED HIM TO LIE AND SAY MICHAEL JACKSON TOUCHED HIM,JUST TO GET MONEY OFF HIM…JUST LIKE AKON AND THE UNDERAGE GIRL WHO HE DANCED,WITH…SOME PEOPLE PAY-TO KEEP THERE NAME OUT THE NEWS. AS ENTERTAINERS THEY HAVE TO KEEP A CLEAR NAME. ITS NOT SAYING THEY ARE GUILTY-ITS TO KEEP FROM HURTING THERE CAREER. HOW HARD IS IT-FOR SOME PEOPLE TO SEE FACTS RATHER THAN,LIE ABOUT THE TRUTH? MEANING ITS TRUE-SOMEONE DID HAVE SEX AND P*SSED ON ATLEAST ONE OF THEM,ITS TRUE THEY TYPED IT,ITS TRUE TO SAY THAT-THESE GIRLS WAS NOT VIRGINS,ITS TRUE TO SAY THEY HAVE HAD SEX,OR DONE THE SEX ACTS MORE THAN ONCE IN THE TYPES,ITS TRUE TO SAY NONE OF THE GIRLS WAS UNDER THE AGE OF 12,ITS TRUE TO SAY NONE OF THESES GIRLS PARENTS WAS THERE,ITS TRUE TO SAY THE SINGER HERSELF-KNEW OF AND LET HER NEICE-GO,WITH THIS MAN CLAIM TO BE-R.KELLY. RUMORS-R.KELLY FAMILY DON’T GET ALONE,RUMORS-HE HAD SEX,WITH UNDERAGE GIRLS,RUMORS-HE HAD BEEN DONE WRONG AS A CHILD OR ANYTHING OTHER THAN HIS SISTER AND BROTHERS PICKING ON HIM SAYING HE CAN’T READ. HELL HIS BROTHER COULD BE LYING-BECAUSE R.KELLY DIDNT GIVE HIM MONEY OR THAT COULD JUST BE A RUMOR THAT HIS BROTHER IS SAYING THINGS. QUESTION I ASK AGAIN-WHERE IN THE HELL WAS THE PARENTS OR AUNT-WHEN ALL THESE THINGS WAS GOING ON? AND WHY TAKE THE MONEY? MONEY CAN’T TAKE AWAY THE FACT OF WHAT TOOK PLACE. I KNOW-I HAVE SIT THREW ALOT OF COURT CASES AND WHEN YOUR TALKING ABOUT A PERSON LIFE ON THE LINE YOU CAN NOT HALF A$$ STEP-YOU GOT TO HAVE THE TRUE FACTS. AND WATCHING AND LOOKING AT THIS CASE-NOTHING IN THE TYPE WOULD MAKE ME SAY IT-WAS R.KELLY. THE FACE,HAIR,BODY NOR VOICE DID NOT MATCH-THAT OF R.KELLY. NO IM NOT SAYING I WAS ONE OF THE JUROR-IM JUST SAYING,I HAVE SIT IN ON CASES LIKE THIS. THINGS MAY LOOK AS IF YOU ARE GUILTY BUT,ONCE YOU UNCOVER THE TRUTH AND SEE THE PICTURE AND GET ALL THE FACTS NOT HEAR SAY BUT,FACTS-YOU WILL SEE ITS THE TRUTH,ITS NOT R.KELLY…MAYBE ALOOK ALIKE BUT-NOT THE REAL ONE.

mmmm welll apparently he couldn’t read the instructions on the dye kit box he bought at the dollar store in pic #1….smh negro w/that kind of money could have hired someone to TEACH his ass to read…And being that folks look at blacks slant eyed half the time, the R Kelly’s and Fantasia’s shouldn’t be telling anyone they cannot read..get it together and do something about it quietly and handle your business!

@ trisha_369 you are soooo on point!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I already knew that R. Kelly can’t read well before reading this article. Yes, he can sing and he does have musical talent, but anybody who listens to his lyrical content and the juvenile attempts at trying to tell stories through song can clearly see where his education ended. Trapped in the closet is so middle school!
Fantasia also struggled with reading, but that never stopped her from writing a best selling book, turning that book into a hit movie, and going on to star in The color Purple and having hit albums. These two people should serve as inspiration to people that belief in one’s self always overrides the power of the words “no” and “Can’t”.

CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE TELL ME-WHERE IN THE HELL IN THIS ARTICLE DID R.KELLY SAY HE CAN NOT READ RIGHT NOW? YES-IN GRAMMAR SCHOOL R.KELLY STATED HE COULD NOT READ WELL. NOTICE HE THEN STATED-THAT HIS TEACHER (IN HIGH SCHOOL)SAID,HE WOULD BECOME ONE OF (THE GREATEST WRITERS) OF ALL TIME. (THAT HE IS)MAN-SOME PEOPLE JUST GRABBED THE COW BY THE A$$ AND RUN,WITH IT…BEFORE THEY REALIZE ITS A BULL. HB STOP-WITH YOUR BULLSH*T…NOW-YOU WONDER HOW LIES & RUMORS GET STARTED? IM SURE R.KELLY IS NOT THE ONLY-ONE WHO HAD TROUBLE IN SCHOOL NOR DIDN’T MAKE THE A HONOR ROW. ITS ALOT OF A+ HONOR ROW STUDENTS-WHO CAN’T PRONOUNCE MY NAME MUCHLESS SPELL MY LAST NAME. GET OVER IT & PUT SOME MORE FAMOUS PEOPLE UP,HERE-IF YOUR GOING TO PUT IT AS IF HE CAN’T READ.

Only God can judge him, so we need to worry about areself and let God do his job.

Men having sex with younger women has been going on for years. He didn’t molest those w***es, it was all about money. Somebody didn’t get they cut so they took it to the media. Thats it thats all. What about the 13 year old down the street who on her hands and knees? Publicize that….but theres no need to her belly will do the talking. Its a shame but its life people. -Chi-Town NATIVE-

So R. Kelly is an Illiterate Child Molester…….lol

CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE TELL ME….. ON PICTURE 11…. WHAT THE F**K THAT IS ON HIS FOE HEAD?????

AND HOW COME ON PICTURE 10…. HE LOOKS LIKE ONE OF THEM GAY DUDES THAT SING Y.M.C.A LMAO

LMAO!!!!!! HE DOES LOOK LIKE ONE OF THE GUYS THAT SING Y.M.C.A IN PIC 10!!!! AND IDK WTF THAT IS ON HIS FOREHEAD IN PIC 11…….. YALL FUNNY!!!!

@Kittybrn…I am not sure what R’s religious affiliation is but in Pic 11 it looks as if he is catholic and those are ashes on his forehead from the observance of Ash Wednesday (the day after Fat Tuesday) it signifies the start of Passover and he would have been required to give up a vice until Easter Sunday, I hope he gave up underage girls (sorry I couldn’t resist).

Thats old news though… they are just now finding this out… geeze its been out there for years that he can’t read… lol

if he cant read how in the hell is he singing then? and it is old news time for an upgrade

Anybody ever wondered why his hair never gets any longer my son is almost 2 and his hair is longer than this dude I mean dang he only been wearing cornrolls forever.

That is a shame he is illiterate, what he doesn’t write his songs…someone has to write his songs for him…lol…he should be ashamed….and it was him on those tapes he talk about it wasn’t him…that’s a bunch of bull…and he was playing his own songs, in the videos, stupid dude..I stop buying his music..

first of all u shouldnt worry bout who writes his songs s**t u may not can read lol anyways stop critizing people and start being a solution to the problem

maybe that why he always went after young girls because maybe he was hoping they couldn’t read either and his issues might not be so noticeable. LOL

momono3 THATS A GOOD ONE AND HE MUST BE OUT OF HIS MIND HOW THE HELL U CANT READ BUT U LETTING YOUNG GIRL PISS ON U MAN THEY REALLY NEED TO PUT U BEHIND BARS BUT ANYWAYS I LOVE UR SONGS BUT U NEED HELP FOR REAL. LOVE NIKKI FROM MILWAUKEE WI

CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE TELL ME-WHERE IN THE HELL IN THIS ARTICLE DID R.KELLY SAY HE CAN NOT READ RIGHT NOW? YES-IN GRAMMAR SCHOOL R.KELLY STATED HE COULD NOT READ WELL. NOTICE HE THEN STATED-THAT HIS TEACHER (IN HIGH SCHOOL)SAID,HE WOULD BECOME ONE OF (THE GREATEST WRITERS) OF ALL TIME. (THAT HE IS)MAN-SOME PEOPLE JUST GRABBED THE COW BY THE A$$ AND RUN,WITH IT…BEFORE THEY REALIZE ITS A BULL. HB STOP-WITH YOUR BULLSH*T…NOW-YOU WONDER HOW LIES & RUMORS GET STARTED? IM SURE R.KELLY IS NOT THE ONLY-ONE WHO HAD TROUBLE IN SCHOOL NOR DIDN’T MAKE THE A HONOR ROW. ITS ALOT OF A+ HONOR ROW STUDENTS-WHO CAN’T PRONOUNCE MY NAME MUCHLESS SPELL MY LAST NAME. GET OVER IT & PUT SOME MORE FAMOUS PEOPLE UP,HERE-IF YOUR GOING TO PUT IT AS IF HE CAN’T READ.

I remember in a Vibe 2004 issue, maybe in May or June, Kels admited to being a “funtional illiterate” and how he relied on staff for help with bigger words, etc. It’s sad, but this is common. You may be surprised@ the # of college grads who fall into this category.

i SEE STUPID N!GGERS are still tryibg to justify the actions of this man.

@TRISHA
you KEEP bringing up the “case” as if the judicial system ISN’T corrupt. who in the hell are you trying to fool????

like eye’ve said before, as long as you’re getting/got money, it’s all good with N!GGERS,
you should try chemical peel because you don’t deserve black skin

My dad used to say: YOU GET BY, BUT YOU DON’T GET AWAY.

Things that used to be acceptable in this country, back in the day, are no longer acceptable now. Had R.Kelly been born back in the early 19th century and before, his attraction to much younger females would have been not only perfectly acceptable, but encouraged. But this is NOW times. Women close to your own age are not dead from childbirth and exhaustion by age 25. He may have gotten by in man’s court, but until he brings his issues to the Lord, he hasn’t gotten away. He has only gotten by.

Darealreckless…before you come on here trying to be AN IGNORANT A$$ N!GGER-you FIRST NEED TO LEARN HOW TO SPELL AND GET IT RIGHT BEFORE YOU LEAVE A SMART-A$$ REMARK. AND WHO ARE YOU TO COME ON HERE TRYING TO JUSTIFY-WHAT I WROTE AND SAY THAT-I DON’T DESERVE TO HAVE BLACK SKIN FOR GIVING MY OPINION? N!GGER YOU ACTING AND TALKING LIKE A HOUSE-N!GGER. THE LAST TIME I CHECKED I WAS FREE AND GOT THE RIGHT TO GIVE AN OPINION…SO YOU JUST GO TAKE YOUR N!GGER A$$ ON BACK IN THE HOUSE BEFORE MASTER GET A WHIT OF YOUR BLACK A$$ BEING OUT THE HOUSE. YOU DON’T WANT TO GET WHIPPED DO YOU? SLMAO AT YOU…SO F*CK YOU-YOU B!TCH A$$ N!GGER.

I can’t waste my comment on a Child Molester…..

Lmao @ whoever posted this dumbasz story! THE MAN WRITES MUSIC for living, obviously, he paid better than ANYONE in this thread, and whoever wrote the article! Also, the man was acquitted of any wrong-doing, respect that! U guys did Michael Jackson the same way, until he was murdered. GROW UP FOLKS!

tisk tisk

R. Kelly can’t read the comment that i’m typing right now… lmao…

Child molester!

LMAO@ BIG BEN.. Right dude!!! Since he can’t read (supposedly) f.uk him and his pissy self.. nasty azz nga

I knew about this when I was in elementary school. It was circulating in the mid and late 90s.

…late. we been knew this.

Yea, this old news, niggas been dissing Kelly about this since the early 90′s

Hey maybe that is why he slept with those little girls, he wasn’t able to interpret their ages on their id’s? Oh wait they were to young to have id’s. SFW he is still a damn child molester and I don’t feel sorry for him. I would love to be a fly on the wall when he gets what he deserves…
