R Kelly is a fucking god. Ok, he's a pederast. Is it weird? Yes. Is my thinking his music is good an endorsement of him liking to interact with teenagers... let's uh...

Anyway, he has a voice like a fucking angel and he's like a 90s R&B Sam Cooke.

Sorry he's weird about sex. TLC is okay, but they had like four songs written by Dallas Austin and whomever else and couldn't keep it together. R Kelly has 20 years of original music that was innovative and fantastic. I don't like all RK songs and I'm not a big RK fan, but you cannot fucking deny his body of work. It's unreal.

Kelly and Jackson should be the first two out - I would hate to see these two in the final

Excuse me for the next two hours

I had a black friend in college that would get wasted on 4 loko and sing R Kelly at the top of his lungs at 4 am.

If this vote was like four months ago Kelly wins it rather easily.

DDY's right, he's a hit machine.
