R. Kelly + Pleasure P
Description
In June 2008, the high-profile six-year indictment of R. Kelly finally ended in his acquittal. The man hardly kept quiet throughout the drawn-out drama surrounding the child pornography charges against him, releasing a steady barrage of albums; his latest, Untitled, comes out December 1. As the strong showing at Madison Square Garden last month revealed, the trial hasn't made a dent in the Chicago singer's devoted fan base. But is it possible to enjoy the artist's music while ignoring his often lewd behavior? TOC's Music staff hashes out the Pied Piper of R&B's complicated history at timeoutchicago.com/music.
