JUDAS666 – Kill yourself with that bullshit!!!! I’ve attended EVERY R. Kelly concert and he has NEVER EVER canceled a show due to low ticket sales. Even during the midst of his trials he was still selling out arenas left and right.! His popularity will NEVER go dire and he still remains the MOST prominent R&B artist of all time. You must have confused for some shitty has-been artist you stan for. R. Kelly still sells and sells out shows. CASE FUCKING CLOSED and you better not say such bogus shit again that states otherwise!

STUPID DUMB FUCK! His Europe tour wasn’t canceled! He was there from April to the beginning of May. Know your facts before talking shit!
His Europe tour in 2009 was canceled because his voice was sick but the dates were already sold-out so try again!

@LoveLetter
Are you being serious calling R.Kelly the most prominent rnb singer of all time. I cant believe you are acctually saying this. No shade he has a good voice and songs but he hasnt been relevant since about 2004. He is doing tiny little theatare shows you dont see Usher doing that or even Chris Brown and hes only been out 5 years. R.Kelly is just old and washed up nowadays and his performance are BORING!

@Rihstan
You’re a Rihanna stan so your opinion really doesn’t matter.
FYI, R. Kelly is the most prominent R&B of all time. Please, tell me another R&B artist that has had the amount of hits he has and his popularity? I’ll wait… And don’t even dare to say Michael Jackson. He is widely known as a Pop artist.
And R. Kelly is still relevant hence why you’re perched in a topic about him in 2011…. BTW, he’ still selling out shows and his album went Gold with no promotion and just one music video.
You stupid bitter ugly bitch! Flusher is not even doing R&B these days. That coon can’t sing and tries so hard to be like MJ but can’t catch up. Ike Brown is never seeing the KING of R&B R. Kelly. Ike Brown is still doing festivals and has never gone an arena tour as the headlining act. Get real!
R. Kelly SOLD-OUT his show last night and it’s not a “little” theater, dumb fuck! He’s doing both arenas and theaters and they all hold over 6,000 people. He also performed at an arena in New Orleans last week and it was sold-out.
and also you say nobody cares about R. Kelly yet you’re STILL perched in here writing paragraphs on the KING. I’m not here for you conflicted fans! If no one cared then he wouldn’t be selling like he is and his shows wouldn’t be packed like they are! You’re just going to have to deal with the fact that the KING of R&B is still a demand and shitting on your untalented faves at the age of 44.
I swear some of you dumb kids try so hard to write off the older artists just because your gimmicky faves could NEVER see them. Just admit it. There’s NO other R&B artist out there as prominent as R. Kelly.
R. Kelly is widely regarded as the KING of R&B. He’s an all around talented artist. That writes, sings and produces for himself and other artists. Who else can do that? NO ONE. The last artist that did was Prince!
Billboard named R. KELLY the most successful R&B artist of the last 25 years so are you going to say Billboard is lying? LMAO! Try again!

OMG this kids kill me with their no fact having ass….so disrespectful…R Kelly is the king of RnB every one knows it…except you are pressed or a child. Even Chris Brown said he looks up to him and was star struck when he saw him at one point…..Usher respects him too, they actually have a song together *same girl*…..He has written some of the best songs even for greats like Whitney and M.J ….I hope you live in the UK and not the states because if you live in the states then you are just being ignorant about R.Kelly but if you live in the UK i won’t blame you after all y’all have a Boy Band called JLS #enoughsaid..hahhahahhah

You’re an idiot that obviously doesn’t know shit about R. Kelly’s music. He doesn’t just jump on a remix every 3 years. He’s a CONSISTENT artist that continues to make hit classics with each album release.
I swear some of these posters don’t know shit about R&B music!

First off, I want to say I’ve always loved R. Kelly and his music. Last night I went to his concert with my sisters, he broke our hearts. The worst ever. He lip sync, on the few songs he did sing live he was terrible! We need our money back. I could have bought a new pair of shoes! SMH from the disappointment. R. Kelly! Really?

STFU, you dumbass coon!
The KING only lip synced ONE fucking song and it’s that song with Keri Hilson.
and nobody gives a fuck if you were disappointed. All that matters is that his TRUE fans had a blast and the majority of the critics loved it, as well. So FUCK OFF!
