And with so much happening in the news today, we didn’t know where to begin. Therefore we decided to talk about the topic on everybody’s minds throughout social media and in the news and that’s the R. Kelly docuseries “Surviving R. Kelly” which aired as a six hour series on lifetime television at the start of the New Year.
The six-part docuseries focused on the testimonies of multiple women who claim the R&B singer/songwriter molested and abused them over the years. Since then R. Kelly has faced more accusations — including allegations that he kept a harem of young women hostage in 2 mansions in the suburban Atlanta area. But no charges were filed against him.
Since the docuseries aired, Kelly has faced major backlash with his label, Sony Records who has reportedly parted ways with the 52 year old “bump and grind” R & B crooner in the aftermath of a sex scandal involving adult women who claim the singer abused them and held them hostage in his Atlanta area home and a Chicago recording studio.
The six-hour series which aired over three nights featured multiple women sharing their experiences with Kelly. The women – who are above the age of consent – allege that Kelly lured them into his sex cult, allegedly holding them captive at his home in Georgia and at his recording studio near his native Chicago, Illinois. The series touched on the fact that, the singer would have men in his entourage search out young groupies before and during the singers concerts.
Join our Host, Ms. Tracy L. Bell at 6:30 p.m. EST on “Conversations Of A Sistah” as she sits down in our studios with Sex Therapist Dr. Tamara Rose, (pictured left) to discuss “Pedophilia – The R Kelly DocuSeries” as it relates to sexuality. Dr. Rose has more than 20 years experience teaching human sexuality and travels the country speaking, consulting and providing extensive training to individuals, colleges, universities, and faith-based organizations.
We hope to meet you on the air!!!

The black man can’t do and get away with what a white man can. the rules are different ESPECIALLY within the justice system. and we’ve all seen that. this is why OJ Simpson was so hated. white folk felt like he got away with murder. this is why they set his ass up. so when it comes to law and order and justice. the rules are different for the black man. remember that.

I don’t know anything about R. Kelly except the music he makes and writes. I don’t know about his love life and what he did or didn’t do. But the Women’s Sex harassment movement has gone toooo far. Now they are destroying men’s livelihoods. If R. Kelly is a pimp, sobeit. Those women can go to the police and complain. They can produce proof (vido/audio). None of the women he’s with now say he’s done them badly. The women in the past….I don’t know….are you so weak and gullible you believe what the man says and takes Shy*t he does? I feel sorry for these brothers, because some of it is 50/50. Women running after men like puppy dogs; many of them gold diggers. his reputation has been rampant, so why would these women continue to be with him?

hese little hot azz 13 year olds act just like their mothers who had them when they were teens. I’ve heard them say…”She can’t say anything. She had me when she was 15.” It’s a generational tragedy. These girls ran after R. Kelly. And he wasn’t their first. They gave it up to JJ, Big Lou, Tiny, and Pappy down the street and around the corner. They weren’t innocent or they wouldn’t have taken their clothes off when he told them to. They would have said hell no and left. Instead they were laid up beds in the studios doing threesomes and getting paid. All you have to do is give these black teens some weed, Hennessey, and nail money.

Those are beautiful young women who were failed by the people that were supposed to protect them. Robert doesn’t like the fast as ghetto ran through type. He likes them virganal and innocent. So the type of girl your explaining does not even apply here.
