You guys ever notice how R.Kelly's music is geared towards kids?

He's got the ice cream music playing on one song.
He's got the pied piper's flute on another song.
His album is called the Chocolate Factory.

WTF is wrong with this guy?

That's one of the best observations I've read in a while; but it is a little creepy.

Nice to see you back, mama! wave

I've said this before, but I'll say it again: I just think its jacked-up that The Dixie Chicks say something criticising the President, and they get banned from the airwaves. R Kelly is caught ON VIDEOTAPE having sex with an underage girl, and he's suddenly at the top of the charts!

I think we really need to examine ourselves as a soceity!

Good call! It reminds me of something I just heard this morning. Seems that the NAACP want to present R. Kelly with one of their image awards. The award has gone to people like Bishop Desmond Tutu and Condoleeze Rice. But, R. Kelly? Maybe this is a joke. I tried to find an article about this. All I've found so far is a statement from NAACP head Kweisi Mfume in which he says: “It continues to concern me that every now and then an Image Award nomination is put forth that fails to meet the high standards for positive, constructive images on which the program was originally created.” Talkin' bout Kelly?

I heard that too, Deb and I thought someone was joking. Since I can't prove the person on the tape or digital camera is R, I can't judge him by that BUT WTF has R. Kelly done to deserve that honor? Most of his videos and songs denigrate black women.

shocked omg If they give that muthafucka something they're making a mockery of their entire organization disbelief How can you even consider awarding someone that molests your children? These people need to imagine it was THEIR daughter in that scenario & they wouldn't be so accepting of this bullshit. WTF is wrong w/ people??? Good Lord... sad

I could be very wrong about this, but didn't R. Kelly co-write Pink & Blue with Andre?? I don't have access to the liner notes at the moment, but something tells me he did. I've always wondered about the meaning of this song. Any suggestions anyone??

I never listen to that song but I remember being put off by it before I knew R had anything to do with it - when you hear the "age ain't nothin but a number" @ the beginning, you know it could all go out of whack lol I know they're trying to flip it for the older woman/younger man but the whole "baby" thing put on either gender is a little creepy IMO - tie it in w/ Aaliyah, R. Kelly & his pedophilia & I wanna fucking run boxed

Pink & Blue Lyrics

(Aaliyah)
age aint nuthin but a number [repeats4x & fades out]

[Andre 3000]
Pretty pink, baby blue
Why don't (why don't) you teach me something new
We're all (we're all) just babies in my view
So crawl baby
Crawl baby
Pretty pink, baby blue
Why don't (why don't) you teach me something new
We're all (we're all) just babies in my view
So crawl baby
Crawl baby

Miss lady
You could have been born a little later but I don't care
So what if your head sports a couple of grey hairs
Same here, and actually I think that's funky
(In a Claire Huxtable type way)
Miss lady
It looks to me like you need a little juice in your life
So call me when that big ole house gets lonelyfied
And I'll teleport from here to there
You show me how it's supposed to be done
I'll make sure you have young fun

Pretty pink, baby blue
Why don't (why don't) you teach me something new
We're all (we're all) just babies in my view
So crawl baby
Crawl baby
Pretty pink, baby blue
Why don't (why don't) you teach me something new
We're all (we're all) just babies in my view
So crawl baby
Crawl baby

You're sophisticated
Just me and miss lady
You've got me talkin like a baby
You make me talk baby talk
She's so sophisticated
You make me talk baby talk
Just me and miss lady
She makes me talk baby talk
Got me talkin like a baby
Like ga ga and goo goo
Oh momma
You're so sophisticated
Make me talk baby talk
Just me and miss lady
You're so experienced
Got me talkin like a baby
Teach me somethin new
Teach me somethin new
You're sophisticated
Just me and miss lady
You got me talkin like a baby

I kinda wondered about it too. I like the song, but when I noticed R's involvement, I started to wonder about the real meaning. Thanks for your input!

But R wasn't involved in it, he just let Andre use a sample of his song to start the track.
