“Other kids could read, other kids could write, other kids could spell, they coul…” — R. Kelly

I like to give people more than their money's worth.

Everywhere I go, from malls to restaurants to sold-out tours overseas and back, everywhere I've been, I get nothing but love.

You don't see me in the club. And the reason is because I would rather be in the studio mixing these musical potions. Now sometimes they blow up in my face, and there's a lot of smoke. But that's who I am. Music is what I do.

I want to be able to be a father to my kids, where I've never seen my father, but my kids can see me whenever they want, so that was broken.
