Why is it that R. Kelly can't get that?
I think he played in people's face one too many times.
Because if you notice...
Originally, like even during that time, people kind of were like, even before that, everybody knew about Aaliyah.
Aaliyah's album was called Age Ain't Nothin' But a Number, all produced by R. Kelly, and she was 15.
The world heard about all of the, they're married and all that stuff, and we was like, all right, we gonna turn and look this way.
Then the tape, now they got hardcore evidence.
I ain't watched the tape.
Then he came with Ignition, Step in the Name of Love, and Hearts for Game, and just focused on the music.
And then he came back out again.
After people have overlooked those two things, it's like, come on, man, you can't keep like just just women in general.
And that was his core audience.
To be like, you keep disrespecting in our face.
