I agree.
I bought 12-play waaaaay back when, when I was a kid and not listening to the content in my music as much as I do now. I remember MY first hint of something being wrong with the man was when he had that "You Remind Me of My Jeep" song. I HATED it so much. How dare you compare me to an inanimate object was my feeling hten, and it pretty much lasted through the rest of his music career.
I would NEVER buy an R. Kelly cd, and have been of that mindset for years now. I do not want to support that man and his way of life with my money. I wouldn't even DOWNLOAD R. Kelly music.
