Robert Sylvester Kelly (born January 8, 1967), best known by the stage name R. Kelly, is an American R&B and soul singer-songwriter, occasional rapper, and record producer. Debuting in 1992 with the group Public Announcement, Kelly went solo in 1993 for a successful solo career starting with the album, 12 Play. Kelly is known for a collection of hit singles including “Bump n’ Grind”, “I Believe I Can Fly”, “Gotham City”, “Ignition”, “If I Could Turn Back The Hands Of Time”, “The World’s Greatest”, and the hip-hopera “Trapped in the Closet”.
Kelly has also produced and performed in many tracks by other R&B and hip-hop artists. In 1994, Kelly produced and wrote the debut album of R&B singer Aaliyah and in 1995, Kelly co-produced and wrote the song “You Are Not Alone” for Michael Jackson, which was included on Jackson’s album, HIStory. Kelly has sung the hooks for many notable hip-hop songs, such as “Fuckin’ You Tonight” by The Notorious B.I.G., “We Thuggin’” by Fat Joe, “Gigolo” by Nick Cannon, and “Go Getta” by Young Jeezy, and has collaborated for two albums with Jay-Z.
In his personal life, Kelly has had several sex scandals. Reports surfaced that he married the then-teenaged Aaliyah, for whom he was a songwriter. Kelly and Aaliyah annulled their marriage. After a video of a man purported to be him having sex with an underage girl was released, Kelly was indicted on several counts of child pornography in 2002. After several delays, his case went to trial in 2008, with the jury ruling Kelly not guilty on all 14 counts.

my god, what happened to R. Kelly?! Is he serious with his new album? It hurts me to say it, but he really messed it up. "I love the DJ" is the worst song I've ever heard of him. May the King of R&B find back to his old roots.

Hmmm I actually enjoy the album a lot. I think most forget that R. Kelly is a popular R&B artist so he's supposed to make music to appeal to the masses. IMO, It's a nice blend of classic R. Kelly and modern R&B/Pop. R. even said himself that he looked for all the hot upcoming producers he could find for Untitled but if he wanted to make a classic R. album he would've done it but as an artist he's trying different styles and etc.

r kelly i am so ashamed. i used to be a huge fan. this new cd is rubbish. sounds like you're trying to emulate every other young hip hop/r&b male artist that's come in your wake. almost 43 years old and the genius that you once were is reduced to this. i don't know what to say. i'm convinced now that you will fade into obscurity, not even a shell of the king of r&b you once were. r.i.p. the r.kelly i knew & loved.
