Oh my god, I love R Kelly. Any man who makes an opera that involves the Kelly very heterosexually jumping out of various closets and singing the rhyming couplet "and that's when things got really twisted / because in the cabinet was a midget" will always have a place in my personal pantheon of musical greats.
And now we, the truly blessed, have been granted unprecedented access to the great man's inner thoughts, thanks to his rightful if impressively fearless (for a man who's been up on charges for sexual offences, that is) belief that all the flotsam and jetsam of his mind is worth sharing with the world.
And so here you can share the pleasure.
Two thoughts, though. There aren't enough songs about the torments of love that includes the line "next time yo' ass gets horny go fuck one of your funky assed friends" in the world. Nor are there enough that conclude with a fight led by a man called Milton.
Enjoy.
