Seems that the standards of what "genius" is has gone down considerably over the years.

I'm not "making up false stories" jerk. What the fuck do you think I have to gain by lying?

Why would I want to make R. Kelly look bad? He does that shit on his own!!!

Millions of people don't think he's a genius. If you think Millions of people consider him a genius, then you're more delusional and a bigger pathetic Stan than I thought!!!


You're just not a smart human being.

Girl, take a sit already Like damn!

He IS a musical genius. He writes, produces and arranges all his music. He created a genre (Hip-Hopera). And still sells despite being accused of child pornography.

Case closed! these people so mad at Kellz.

Bothered at what? The fact that he's a shitty songwriter? The fact that he's bragged about not reading? The fact that he maybe stole songs from other people?

ViintageJunkiie said:

What are you guys? Teenagers?

I have nothing to be mad at R Keely about other than his affection for youngins and his misogyny. But hey, none of that matters as long as he keeps the party movin'.

And now I'm done.

What does his personal life have to do with you? You talking like you know him.

ViintageJunkiie said:

Yet you spoke to "these others" who are supposedly "so mad" at the loser. You're talking like you know them.

It's called appealing to the lowest common denominator and having the nack to extend your fifteen minutes.

Seeing that he's sold MILLIONS of albums, millions of people DO think he's a genius. Try again

ViintageJunkiie said:

Again, selling a lot of records doesn't make you a genius.

If that was the case, M.C. Hammer, Vanilla Ice, Britney Spears, and 50 Cent are "geniuses".


Why is it that fans of shitty artists only bring up record sales as proof of "Good Music"?

Paris9748430 said:

Facts?

No, maybe your brother is....

midiscover said:

I don't care about any of that. And him being a genius is opinion, not fact. Hip-Hopera? WTF is that?

I don't care how much he sells because album sales are not an indication of "good" or "talent".

And once again, I'm done on an R Kelly thread.

SPOT NONE!

You stan for Maxwell! His biggest hit (and best song) to date was composed by Robert Sylvester Kelly!! THE F--KING END!!

midiscover said:

LOL You're hysterical.

Paris9748430 said:

This isn't about sells!! I believe ViintageJunkiie was pointing out Kell's sells as indication that he STILL appeals to many because of his music. So you're saying you don't find him the slightest bit of brilliant when he can compose and arrange HIT songs for other artists? He can do same for himself as well.... He performs in impromptu at his shows... He writes, arranges and produces all of his albums (excluding the participation of others on a few tracks here or there). Hate him or love him the man IS brilliant.

Don't you rave on about Beyonce from time to time? Someone who CLAIMS to write their songs!?! CH!!

and who the fuck are you? A God?

I don't think so! You are in no place to judge someone based on their music taste! R. Kelly appeals to many, many people. I guess more than half the U.S. population is the "lowest common denominator", ehhh? Please, sit down! Just because he hides behinds this thug persona and ghetto lingo doesn't mean he's dumb nor ridiculous. The dumb ones are people such as yourself that question his music. He purposely writes the way he does to fool the public. He doesn't take himself seriously and that's why his music always turns out so brilliant.

You know it's true

wow, there's some horrible, mean-spirited posting in this thread.
R. really aint worth it.

midiscover said:

Nope. He wrote one song for Maxwell, and it's never been a favorite of mine. You're acting as though you're freakin' married to R. Smelly or something. Why are you so adamant about defending this slime ball? He doesn't give a shit about you (or any of us), and people's skin crawl when he's mentioned. He's a laughing stock for a couple of reasons. 1) Trapped in the mother fucking closet, and 2) potential pedophile. Honestly, there's better artists to stand up for than that guy.
