Who keeps buying R.Kelly Albums?

Question

The guy is a child predator. His music is not that great. Whats the deal?

Answer 1

Only the people who like him are still buying his albums..But anyway, who are we to Judge..I don't think nobody in the world should judge that man..We were not with the man on that night..Nobody Know if R.Kelly is guilty or not..The only one who knows is him and God.

Answer 2

I buy R. Kelly's albums. The man is a genius musically. IMO. Some...ok...a lot of his music (I mean the beats) are repetitive now (I mean he's recycling beats in his new songs), but I still love him. I was going to stop buying his music, but for a different reason...I felt I was cheated at his last concert (the one b4 his tour with Jay-Z).

Anyhow, I saw the tape. Couldn't watch the whole thing, but you can't really say it's him and you can't really say it's not him.

Do I believe he has/had a problem, yes I do, but I don't believe he's guilty of that crime on the tape. I know as an adult he should have known better than to mess with any kid, but at the same time some of these girls are fast. They act like grown women. I blame the parents (how do you not know where your children are and they company they keep), the children (for being too damn grown), and him (for not exercising common sense and restraint).

Anyhow, to stop buying his music because he's perceived as a pedaphile is your choice. I look at it like this. Everyone has some skeleton in their closet (whether it's old and buried -meaning they're not doing wrong anymore or a new skeleton). We support things unknowingly. (And yes I know once you find out something is wrong or you've supported something you're not in agreement with, you'd rectify the situation or stop supporting that cause).

Let's say you believe in Jesus Christ, and you go see a movie your favorite actor is in or you buy your favorite muscian's CD. You've always supported them from day one, but unbeknownst to you that person worships satan and gives all of their money to whatever organization that would support satanic doings. I know I'm being a bit extreme here, but I just wanted you to think about that.

Answer 3

I haven't bought an R.Kelly album since I don't know when. It's not that I have anything against him it's just the fact that some of his songs are a little overbearing. Don't get me wrong but he is a little too open.

Answer 4

R. Kelly is still very talented. Don't worry about who keeps buying his music. He's still richer than you are and will continue to be. Were you there? Was he ever convicted? Go figure..

Answer 5

Not me. He may have a voice, but I would never want to help him have money. He completely tarnished his image. I don't want to listen to music made by a pedophile. The whole saudomy thing just buggs me. Poor Aaliyah. I shudder thinking about what he could have done to her.

Answer 6

i looooooove R kelly my opinion is that he is the best r&b artist of all time but that's MY opinion you don't have to like him because you do have that choice but im sure he could care less what you and me both think because regardless of what we think he's still making millions
a lot of ppl on here are just agreeing because they are afraid to voice their own opinions which means their just a bunch of followers anyway, which is so sad but that's ppl for ya

Answer 7

I agree with you 100%! I cant stand the guy, he's scum! Not only that i think he lacks creativity, re-mixing a song 5 times is not talent!

Answer 8

Not me, but obviously someone likes the music.

Answer 9

I'll buy them as long as he makes them. It's not like any of you are hurting him but not buying his music.

Answer 10

Everyone has diffrent taste in music. Maybe they just over look those other facts.
