If that wasn’t enough of the Pied Piper, encore presentations of the live concert specials, R. KELLY SINGS SAM COOKE and THE LOVE LETTER TOUR will be aired, along with the world premiere of THE KING LIVES, a 60 minute live preview of the new album.

R Kelly no matter what his demons are U can't deny he is a gifted individual...Watch it!!!

We forgive and forget far too easily.

I hope they show re-runs of the Centric special tomorrow. LOL! The King of R&B stays winning while you losers stay put behind your computers talking shit.

You're telling me he doesnt have 5 millions right now ? After all he sold ?

That's pretty disgusting.

He's worth $150 million and paid the IRS $1 million just last year so he clearly has money. To think otherwise is just silly.

He has the money! That's the problem here

Script had it right from jump. That pervert was known to cruise junior high school's in Chi-Town. So much so Sun-Times columnist Mary Mitchell wrote about it, several times. Sick bastard.

Man i know! it's crazy to think... but Kells was as overplayed as Rihanna or Chris Brown back in my middle school to high school day's

From Chocolate Factory to Double & all his collabs and osngs he wrote for others. Kells was everywhere in that time period you couldn't turn on BET after school without seeing one his videos.

Don't forget that Trapped In The Closet basically became the soap opera for a generation

I followed it too but not because it was a genius take of a soap opera (though I admit there were good moments like the Ch. 12 breakdown part of Rufus, Cathy and Chuck ) but because it was an entertaining train wreck.

You 2 hit it right on the head!!

I thought trapped in the closet was cool when i was younger.. it came out my freshman year in 05. But yeah watching it now.. it is cheesy as fuck

Oh lord & continuity issues Twon get's shot in the arm.. then the rest of the chapters he has no wound that is such an obvious thing it make's me laugh

Yep. I feel he became bigger after the scandal at one point then he started to fade.

But damn... that brings back some memories. For some reason i used to go home after football practice and watch TRL And it seems literally there where a good 3 years where an R. Kelly video was on.. whether he was in it or it was a song he produced. Oh man & Ashanti was being played like hell to the horror

Y'all buggin, Trapped in the Closet was a masterpiece.

The early ones were cool the first chapter is my favorite though.

The lighting in this particular episode is just.......... The dark shadows that hit kells face... then he goes in the light. And hell i even noticed one of the lights on accident

If we did lighting like this in film school we got a failing grade ain't that a bitch
