Since the shocking documentary on R Kelly titled “Surviving R Kelly’‘ got released, many music artistes have aired their disgust at the legendary singer. Some of those who have spoken to against him in regards to the revelation of the documentary are John Legend, Meek and Neyo who got kicked out of R Kelly’s 2007 tour.
“There is NO excuse,” wrote singer
Ne-Yo, 39.
“Music is important. It really is. But it’s not more important than protecting our children, protecting our little girls. PERIOD. #IHaveADaughter #TF!?? #MUTERKELLY,” he added alongside a picture of the words “MuteRKelly” against a black background.”
Rapper Meek Mill, 31, shared:
“I’m not feeling R.”
“It’s so much filthy s— going on in this industry nobody will ever really speak on the wild s— because most of them could have docs like this or even worst done about them!” he added.
R&B singer Tank, 43, spoke on how the documentary made him “sick to my stomach.”
“A lot of artists, song writers, producers, record execs, etc are very confused as to how to respond to what they’ve seen and heard,” he wrote. “We’ve all been inspired by this man. We’ve all been witnesses to his musical genius. We have shaped and molded talent we sign after his musical image. We’ve invested so much of ourselves into this man that it’s hard for us to let go. I no longer have that issue.”
“I whole heartedly [sic] apologize for not coming to this realization sooner,” he wrote, adding, “There has to be a line drawn. Enough has to be enough at some point. Who are we saying is worth protecting if we let this continue? I choose the lives of these young black girls!”
