RadioOnFire.com - "Surviving R. Kelly" shines light on a fact everyone already knows, some things about the singer just are not right. The much-anticipated, Lifetime three-night event has Robert Kelly is threatening legal action. JAY-Z, Lady Gaga, Dave Chappelle, Erykah Badu, Questlove, Mary J. Blige, and Lil’ Kim all declined to be interviewed for “Surviving R. Kelly”. In fact, John Legend and Sparkle are the only mainstream artist to appear in the series.
Following the airing of the first two episodes on Thursday, Legend took to Twitter to expound on why he chose to participate. “To everyone telling me how courageous I am for appearing in the doc, it didn’t feel risky at all,” he tweeted. “I believe these women and don’t give a fuck about protecting a serial child rapist. Easy decision.”
John Legend also gave props to documentarian and series producer Dream Hampton for her work. “We should all thank my friend @dreamhampton for her very necessary work to create #SurvivingRKelly,” he tweeted. “These survivors deserved to be lifted up and heard. I hope it gets them closer to some kind of justice.”
The people interviewed appear to be credible. Sex and marriage to an underage Aaliyah are detailed by former members of Kelly's inner circle.This bad press for R. Kelly may not end his career thou. Many fans refuse to place any blame on the Chicago native. Earlier this week, Kelly released a new song called "Born To My Music" from his upcoming album. The toe tapping tune was written produced and arranged by R.Kelly recorded at The Chocolate Factory studios Chicago Illinois.
Sadly, something tells me this is not the end for the Pied Piper.
