It’s so sad when society can actually put a dollar amount on our future leaders of this world; which is our children. R. Kelly is a very sick individual and needs to seek help. Just because he’s a celebrity does not make this okay. I know we don’t want to see another black man incarcerated, but what about the minds of these children whom will be incarcerated for the rest of their lives with the horror and nightmare he put them through. Black Folks we just got to do better and start giving a damn about more than just music, fashion, and driving the hottest cars and what ever else people seem to care about these days. we need to start focusing on what really matters in this crazy, racist, discriminating, deranged, perverted world we live in. we need to fight a lot harder and be the voice of our children and youths.

IF HE HAD UNDERAGED SEX WITH A WHITE GIRL HIS ASS WOULDA BEEN IN JAIL 6 YRS EARLIER. UNFORTUNATELY THE JUSTICE SYSTEM DONT CARE IF THE VICTIM IS BLACK.

lol #136: H I L A R I O U S
wow. if the situation was with a little white girl
his butt would have gotten 35 years
but now we see america’s judges have not changed!!

LMAO!!!

AND TO EVERYONE WHO’S PISSED 0FF, YOU ALL ARE SOME DUMB ASSES!!!

WHY ARE YOU ALL TAKING IT SO SERIOUSLY?

I am a Kells fan……And I have every album….and even I know that he did it…or atleast I think he did it. He got off, he’s lucky. He’ll continuing making albums and we’ll continue buying them. Get over it.

r .kelly is not innocent. i saw the tape and it was him …however i would not have convicted him for that…the girl said it was not her and she did not want to testify ….in the tape she agreed to it and had no problem getting what she came for ……y should r kelly go to jail for 15 years for something she wanted

All I can say is its a damn shame that people are saying she got what she wanted she was a CHILD and she was not meantally ready for what was done on that tape and @ Beyonce she didn’t look any older than 13 on that tape and anybody who saw it knows at least that much even if we can’t agree about nothing else. She was somebody’s child and she was not ready for all that even if she thought she was if it wasn’t a problem then why is there a law against it? Hell I’m a grown ass women and I aint even ready for getting pissed on lmao!! Like somebody said its called STATUTORY RAPE people automatically think of force when they hear the word rape but there are several types of rape and not all of them involve force would you say the same thing if your lil sis or niece did that with a grown ass man would you say she got what she wanted? I know I sure wouldn’t cause its easy for a grown man to manipulate a 13 yr old with ease especially if she has nobody teaching her. He will continue to make good music and sell but I don’t think he will stop he will just be a lot more careful from now on and thats just said and scary

I knew this would happen. I do believe the girl was manipulated. My mother told me that she heard stuff about R. Kelly in the EARLY,EARLY 90’s way before the Aaliyah fiasco. But it’s so obvious that R. Kelly is a sick man….a pedophile. The justice system has let me down once again….HELL FORGET ALL THIS…HOW ABOUT THOSE GAS PRICES??? GAS IS NOW $4.07 IN MY AREA…… )-:

To all ya’ll hatas…leave that man alone. Who cares if he did or didn’t…his musiq is HOTTT!

Shake em off R Kelly!!! LOL

@74 PLEASE STFU!!! What are you talking about seeing “another black brother go to jail”.

THE MAN IS SICK AND NEEDS HELP so thats why!!!!!!!!!!

Its just going to get WORST b4 it gets better if he dosnt get any help.

And dont worry ya’ll…….he may have gotten off now….but trust and believe he will strike again! Maybe years from now but it will happen!

His urge will strike again and then next thing you know….

TINY in Cell block 8 ripping him another *** hole!!

Sorry to be soo graphic but I have a little daughter and this sh*t brings me to tears!!!!

I OFFICIALLY RETRACT MY PREVIOUS. YOU ALL ARE RIGHT…AND WRONG.
WHAT R.KELLY DID IS DISGUSTING AND HE DOES DESERVE TO ROT IN JAIL. IF SOMEONE DID THAT TO MY YOUNG FAMILY MEMB, I WOULD BE DISTRAUGHT. ON THE OTHER HAND, THE RACE THING IS TRUE, IF THIS WERE NOT A BLACK GIRL-HE WOULD BE IN JAIL.
I APOLOGIZE TO ANYONE WHO HAS EVER BEEN VICTIMIZED IN THIS MANNER.
SORRY PEOPLE-I DID NOT THINK

8 or 9 of the jurors were black, so saying it would’ve been different if it were a white girl doesn’t make sense.

#2..So True
Heill probably do it again & again because he has not owned up to it..Look! We all know it was him whether we want to Believe it or not!!! He is sooooooo cocky wit his Nasty A** he be in videos like–yeah I did it and i’ll do it again! And now he’s been acquitted–OMG–that bastard will never learn now until some old cat snatches his daughter up.. I had always been a fan of R.Kelly honestly it took me 3 yrs to look @ the tape someone had. I didn’t want to see it but I wanted to know if that was him or not.. After seeing it for myself, wit my own eyes & sure enough as soon as I saw his face (mind u—any fan of R.Kelly knows his face) I was like
that’s that Nigga
@ #4..I Didn’t Know
@ #6.. You STUPID!!
@ #7.. You a Fool!
@ #17.. Right On!!!
@ #26.. I co-sign on that note!!
@ #47.. Ooooooh!!!! But so tru!!!!!!

Actually majority of the jury were white males

Funny, on June 13, 2005 Michael Jackson was acquitted on all his counts. R. Kelly was “acquitted” on June 13, 2008. I’m a HUGE Michael Jackson fan but not an R. Kelly fan in any way shape or form.
To #74 no one is hating themselves. If my uncle molested a young girl I would want to be there when they tell him to go to jail. I don’t give a damn who he is. If he did it, he deserves to be in jail. It’s not about hating yourself, it’s about making it safer for children. That molestation shit is not funny, trust me. Regardless of if she wanted it or not it’s ILLEGAL!!!!! Damn, just because a nigga can sing don’t mean nothing.
+ Didn’t he marry Aaliyah when she was 15? Yeah, he needs to be UNDER the jail. Serious problems. For all you RK fans that are cussing everyone out for dissin’ him, INTRODUCE HIM TO WOMEN! NOT girls 7-16. But women his age.

To 63, if you were in a murder trail, would you say it’s you? The girl was embarrasses so was RK.

There was a survey that said 99% of people would still buy his album if he was covicted. 99%. That’s horrible.

RK will get what he deserves. I think he hinted it in a lot of his songs personally.
“Jigga, Kelly not guilty”

I already knew that he wasn’t going to jail. He was gonna,”make it rain like confetti” on the judges and keep it movin’. I’m gone

STOP ACTING LIKE THE GIRL ISN’T TO BLAME ALSO! IF YOU CALL HIM A PEDOPHILE, MAKE SURE YOU CALL HER A FAST ASS LITTLE GIRL TOO BECAUSE SHE LET HIM PISS ON HER! That little girl and her family knew what they were doing. And for everyone saying he raped her…rape and statutory rape are two different things. He didn’t take anything from her, she gave it to him…it was not rape.

Hide your female relatives 16 and under……. those morons let a child f—er go.

The things money can buy you (freedom)….. more than a few people were paid off. Karma is something else….. he may feel good now but it comes back.

@ 195 applause……

What is with fools supporting and congratulating….him he better thank his money and his lawyers and the people who paid some of the jury off. He’s been liking them young since Aaliyah was a teen…probably before. So congratulations on letting a little girl lover free.

“STOP ACTING LIKE THE GIRL ISN’T TO BLAME ALSO! IF YOU CALL HIM A PEDOPHILE, MAKE SURE YOU CALL HER A FAST ASS LITTLE GIRL TOO BECAUSE SHE LET HIM PISS ON HER! That little girl and her family knew what they were doing. And for everyone saying he raped her…rape and statutory rape are two different things. He didn’t take anything from her, she gave it to him…it was not rape.”

She may be a “fast little girl”,but she didn’t get that way on her own. We(parents/society)have a hand in it as well. She didn’t raise herself. The reason it is called rape is because at that age children are still impressionable. They don’t have the wisdom that we(adults)are suppose to have.

“WHY AREN’T YOU SAYING ANYTHING ABOUT THE FLDS DOWN IN TX SYSTEMATIC GENERATIONAL RAPING AND MARRYING OFF 13 AND 14 YEAR OLDS AND MAKING THEM MOTHERS, RAISING THEM UP TO BE STAUNCH RASICST TO KILL YOU, GETTING OFF AND LIVING OFF OF YOUR TAX DOLLARS.”

I could give a flying f*ck about their community. We need to look at what is happening within. Till then,we can’t help anyone else.

“Y all talking about sin and R Kelly facing God. How about you? We all commit sins everyday. Having those extra-marital babies is sin. Having sex and not being married is sin. talking about people is sin, JUDGING S.One is sin…….. And the list goes on.”

What Kelly did is CRIMINAL. There is a difference.

“MY DAUGHTER HAS CLASS, SHE IS A YOUNG LADY. SHE IS 11, AND HAVE MORE SENSE THEN YOUR AVERAGE TEENAGER. PLUS, I KEEP A VERY SHORT LEASH ON HER, IF SHE GETS PEED ON, I WILL FEEL IT. LOL!

JUS SAYIN.”

If I had a nickle for every parent/guardian who said that. Don’t put your head on a block for these children. You’ll surely get it chopped off.

Great. Thank you judge and jury in Chicago, now everyone can make solidify that he and another singer I can name whose in my gravatar “got off”. R.Kelly, yes. My man? NO.

For the haters on here, LISTEN UP AND LISTEN GOOD! The reason why R. Kelly was found NOT GUILTY because THERE WAS NO PROOF on who the girl was or her age. There was NO victim! Secondly, the jury had watched the tape over and over again. Guess what? They were 2 different individuals (.i.e. the ex-plaintiff was NOT the girl on the tape). Plus, that Lisa Van Allen bitch (the woman who accused of having 3-somes with him and the “so-called”victim) has lied under oath! How? She and her thug-ass boyfriend (who was arrested for mortgage fraud & marijuana possession 3 months BEFORE the trial had started) had tried to bribe R. Kelly’s P. I.’s stating that they wanted $350,000.00 from Kells! And, she also had stolen Kell’s $30,000.00 Rolex watch, also. R. KELLY WAS COMPLETELY SET UP BY HER AND 2 CON ARTISTS FROM KANSAS CITY (names Keith and Chuck). They were the shysters who had made the so-called tape in order to bribe R. Kelly, also. Don’t listen to NO words coming out of that whoe’s (Van Allen chick) mouth. This casse was ALL ABOUT THE MONEY!!!! He’s is INNOCENT! Get over it and stop riding on his dick. Worry about these: YOUR OWN PROBLEMS, WHO’S GONNA BE THE NEXT PRESIDENT AND WHY THE GAS IS SO DAMN HIGH!!! Leave R. Kelly alone and let him live in peace.
