Now, as far as I know, R Kelly hasn't been FOUND guilty of anything at this point. He has been CHARGED but that is all...unless I missed something (which I may have).
I have no problem listening to his music, and that won't change if he is eventually found guilty of the charges he is currently facing. He is very talented and I love most of the songs he's done. Granted, I haven't gone out to buy his CD, but in the age of Kazaa, I don't buy music any more, period (nor do I buy movies, and I rarely even go to the theater).
On a more general note, to me, artists are NOT role models. I can separate someone's talent from someone's person. I'm sure there are PLENTY of actors and musicians out there I would think absolutely SUCK as people if I knew more about them, but frankly I don't really care enough to investigate.
