Michelle Kramer, one of the women whose teenage daughters was groomed for sexual abuse by the singer R. Kelly, has revealed that there is far more to his web of predation than meets the eye.

In an interview with the ‘C’mon Son’ podcast, Kramer – whose daughter is Dominique Gardner– revealed that the entertainer once tried to throw her child off a roof for disobeying his orders… and tried to force her to have a penis attached to her body so that she could pleasure him with it.

There’s more.

For, the show’s host stunned listeners by claiming that Aaliyah‘s uncle – Barry Hankerson– was aware that Kelly preyed on teens and once spilled the beans in a conversation.

The 2010s has gifted music history some of its most memorable efforts.

From JAY-Z to Adele, Nicki Minaj, Sam Smith, P!nk, and more, the decade was chock full of groundbreaking titles that helped change the musical landscape in their respective genres – a truth that undoubtedly made compiling the list of top 100 releases from the time period quite the daunting task.

Jussie Smollett is fighting back.

The ‘Empire’ actor found himself at the center of one of the year’s most shocking stories; a story which saw him initially deemed the victim (after an alleged hate attack) only to himself become the suspect of criminal behavior.

The latter saw Smollett charged with orchestrating the entire attack and paying off  brothers Abimbola Osundairo and Olabinjo Osundairo to stage a beatdown.

And yet in a dramatic twist, the criminal case collapsed in the preliminary phase and the 36-year-old looked to be off the hook. That is until the City of Chicago filed suit against him demanding he pay back the $130,000 to recoup the cost of the investigation.

Now, Smollett – who has always maintained his innocence – is retaliating.
