    That is ALL because R. Kelly is The King Of R&B. I see these whites are on a roll trynna take down black male LEGENDS. They done dug MJ 6 feet out of the grave (when his body already been eaten by the worms a decade ago) to attack him next in a “TAKE-A-N|GGA-DOWN-mentary” on some bull sh|t that can’t go ANYWHERE in criminal court! Too many people falling for this organized agenda to destroy black male legends!
