The three-time Grammy winner – who turns 49 next month – was promoting his 13th studio album The Buffet, which is projected to sell 100K copies less than his 2013 album Black Panties.
Caroline Modarressy-Tehrani asked if the disappointing sales were a reflection of how conflicted the R&B crooner’s fans were about his sexual abuse allegations. Back in 2008, Kelly – born Robert – was found not guilty of 14 counts of child pornography after a 2002 sex tape was leaked of him with an underage girl.
And back in 1998, the Chicago-born belter settled a $10M lawsuit with Tiffany Hawkins, 20, for $250K after she accused him of sexual abuse when he was 24 and she was 15.
‘I say f*** that. I say I have a lot of fans around the world that love R. Kelly and I’m glad that they don’t [all] feel [that] way,’ the Put The Guns Down singer said.
‘But you can’t satisfy everybody and you’re not gonna always have everybody to hold you down you know.’
