    R. Kelly is regarded as one of music's all-time hit makers, but the R&B star's career is being seriously tested again after new criminal charges are brought against him. http://apne.ws/llQfDim

        I mean the guy was on tape - pissing on women - and it’s been known he dated (had sex) with underage women - but now we’re surprised by his actions 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️-

        I'm still amazed at how folks find this sick fuck's behavior offensive yet claim the well-documented misogynistic lyrics in rap music are a-okay👌#HypocriteMuch

        couldn't name one R Kelly song but have to wonder why him-I remember Jerry Lee Lewis 'marrying' his 14 year old cousin and people thinking that was OK-

        What?! The guy is accused of sex crimes. It’s disgusting. I don’t care how good his music is. This puff piece is disturbing.

        He rapes and pisses on kids whom he basically holds captive and you say his career is being tested? Jesus, Christ, @ap, your headlines need work. Here you go: "Massively abusive man is finally brought to justice despite a career made possible by pathetic apologists."

        This is a disgusting, but telling, ordering of priorities. The continued focus on what the impact of his lifetime of abuse and degradation of women will be on his career is not important. The impact his success has had on enabling his abusive behavior is the story.
