New Footage of R Kelly and Underage Girl Turned Over To Authorities

Attorney Michael Avenatti, through research and investigation, reveals that a new sextape of Robert Kelly, aka "R. Kelly" involved in sex acts with a 14 year old girl has been turned over to  Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office in Chicago.  The video was turned over to Avenatti by a "whistleblower" who is allegedly very familiar with R Kelly and the young woman in the video.


CNN has revealed that they have viewed the tape, and it does indeed appear to show R Kelly involved in sex acts with a minor, although the young woman's age could not be determined by viewing the tape. However, her genitalia were referred to as "14 years old" in the video.  In the acclaimed docu-series Surviving R Kelly, one of his alleged victims stated that Kels liked for them to state their age during sexual activity. This is apparently a turn on for the serial predator. The newly released tape is about 45 minutes long.

According to Avenatti's statement, shared via twitter, he has been doing pro bono work for clients associated with the sexually predatory acts of the singer in an effort to get justice for his victims. The video is alleged to have taken place in the 90s, making R Kelly in the age range of 20s-30s.  The young woman refers to her private parts as "14", so if she was indeed 14 years old at the time of the taping, R Kelly could be charged with sexual assault or statutory rape.

So far, luck has been on his side.  Will this third time be a charm? Will they actually be able to convict R Kelly?

What do you think? Let's talk!

Zimmerman and My "0" Fux Given

Yep. Title says it all. I can give "0" fux about George Zimmerman.

If I saw his azz on fire on the side of the road, and it started to rain, I'd build a shed to protect the fire, just to make sure it still burned.

I loathe George Zimmerman.

Although the Bible tells me to love my brother man, it does not mean that I have to like him.  And this bastard is anything but likable.

Let's get this straight--I'm not here to debate whether Zimmerman was justified in shooting Trayvon.  He wasn't, the jury decided that he was, and that is that.  We can't change that outcome.  Yet, not even the fact that he shot this young man, someone's son, and to this day, shows no real remorse, is not absolutely mind boggling to me.  What blows my scalp, what makes me effing hot, what makes me want to drive over his azz in the old '02 Dodge Stratus I used to drive, is the fact that this man can be so cold and calculating in his efforts to sell the gun that was responsible for killing a young man. Someone's son.  A child. Trayvon Martin.

Let's take justification off of the table, because that's the first thing that his supporters will yell. "He was justified! It's his gun, he can do what he wants!" Yes, that's true! ALL of that is true.  But we're not talking about technicalities. We are talking about something that is all too lacking, not just in George Zimmerman, but in society as a whole: We're talking just common DAMN decency.  What happened to common decency? What happened to compassion?  As a human being, the fact that Zimmerman took a life with that gun, a life that belonged to a young man, who had not even begun to live his life, that fact alone should be enough to make Zimmerman despise himself.  Zimmerman committed a murder, made a joke of the justice system, and with his careless, most times violent, and callous acts of abuse and intimidation, continues to make a mockery of not only that same system, but of the life that Sabrina and Tracy gave to Trayvon. This young man had a family that loved him, just like Zimmerman, but for some reason, none of that matters to Zimmerman. How does he think that they feel, watching him parade around, a pseudo-celebrity, peddling the gun the took the life of their son? My heart aches for them, and you would think that George would have a some compassion for them, even if just a little.

The media has made Zimmerman a celebrity of sorts, and although notorious, he is using that platform for all the worth he can drain from it.  My prayer is that this same social media that he uses as a platform to elevate his violent, racist antics, is the same social media that will soon expose the world to his downfall. He's a p***y of the highest pedigree. A straight effing coward.

If Zimmerman were to lose his life at someone else's hand, would he want for the weapon to be flaunted as a trophy and a blatant slap in the face to his family?  I'm willing to bid on that weapon, and I pray that I am alive to see the day. I'm not praying for his extinction, but know that I'm not NOT praying for it, either. Hell, I'm still a work in progress, so just pray for me.

FUX George Zimmerman, and the pony he rode in on.
B.A.N!!!!!!!!

Why "The People" Won't Let R. Kelly Off So Easily

Why "The People" Won't Let R. Kelly Off So Easily 

Recently, R. Kelly was interviewed by HuffPost Live host Caroline Modarressy-Tehrani as part of his promotion for his latest album, "The Buffet". This happens to be R. Kelly's 13th studio release. During the interview, R. Kelly thought that he would only be asked questions about the album, and that this would be a glossed over interview where none of the tough questions would be asked. To say the least, R. Kelly was unpleasantly surprised. Kelly was so miffed about the questions being asked, that he even walked off set, exclaiming that the "interview is over"! Modarressy-Tehrani played no games with Kelly, asking him questions about his latest release, but also making sure to ask Kelly about the allegations of sexual assault/abuse of young (black) girls, questions he has tap danced and pranced around, but have dogged him, for years, including his marriage in 1994 to R&B princess Aaliyah.

I started to not even touch on this topic, but then I read a blog comment regarding R. Kelly walking out of this interview, which Kelly himself likened to a deposition. The comment, summed up, said "Don't just blame R. Kelly because those wenches knew what they were doing". *Sighhhhhhh* *Sighhhhhhhh again* So, we're really still here, people? Really? And it wasn't just that one comment. It should surprise me how many people share that same "victim-blaming" mentality, but sadly, it doesn't. We live in a day and age where a rape or beating is more likely to be recorded and posted to social media, than to be stopped or police called. What hurts me, though, is how Black people, my people, have normalized this type of sexual predatory behavior in our Black communities. To have men sexualize our young daughters, to take advantage of their young impressionable minds, have almost become a cultural norm in the Black community, and our answer, when called on it, is that "it's been going on for years". May be, but that still doesn't make it right. Just because your granddaddy married a fifteen year old when he was 62 and it was accepted, sho' don't make it right.

Take this into consideration. If R. Kelly were a white man, preying on young, black teenage girls, would we still be taking up for him? Would we still be justifying his actions, blaming the victims as having somehow asked for their own victimization? Kelly has not been accused once. He has been accused of sexual assault dozens of times by young women, mainly through lawsuits. If Kelly was white, despite his success as an artist, we would have been yelling "sick bastard!" and we wouldn't have been satisfied until he were punished for his deviant behavior. How do we make this the victims' fault? How many of us young men and women have done things in our youth that we regret, some of things life-altering events? As a teenage girl growing up idolizing one of the biggest R&B stars of our time, do we really think that it was hard for Kelly to coerce young women into sleeping with him? He is R. Kelly, right? But here's the thing, just because they acquiesced to his wishes, does not make them responsible.  That's why there are such laws as statutory rape laws.  These laws understand that minors are not known for making responsible decisions, and that ordinarily, they are immature and do not have the same sensibilities as adults.  As adults, we should know better.  R. Kelly should know better. I remember when I was a kid, and my sister asked me if I wanted a jheri curl like Michael Jackson. I was like "yeah!" I mean, who didn't want to be like Mike? When she cut my hair, and my mother found out, she was incensed! My shoulder length hair was now no longer than 2 inches long! Was I responsible for my sister's decision? No, because I was a child, and I acted, and thought, as a child would. My sister, as an adult, should have known better. See how that works?

We are in a social media driven age, and "The People" want answers.  A jury may have found him innocent in a court of law, but that does not mean that he is not guilty of deviant behavior with underaged girls! I saw the tape!  Because they are black girls, does not mean that we should not hold him accountable as if he were, say white. I hate it, but I guess R. Kelly's career can be summed up in this tweet:

I'm just saying...
