Yeah, R. Kelly is disgusting and sick. The parents who turned a blind eye are as well. Their children will never be able to trust that the ones who were to protect them from such vile behavior, left them available to be attacked. The way instances of molestation and sexual abuse are swept under the rug in black churches and homes across America is a try testament how many view the value of a black female. Power and money breeds this behavior. R. Kelly can go to hell. And any other bastard who feeds off of molestation.
As much as I loved listening to R. Kelly, he brought this upon himself and now he must pay. Yes, a culture of toxic masculinity pervades the black community and it is eating us alive. We cannot continue to use racism as an excuse to ignore something as heinous as child molestation/sexual abuse against young black children. Sickening!!!
