Some how I picture, Linus, Sally Lucy, Pig Pin, Snoopy and the rest of the Peanuts dancing around like they did in A Charlie Brown Christmas special. Is the intern's name Franklin?

I'm not sure it's fair to say his lawyers are "skillfully" keeping him from standing trial. Wasn't the last postponement because the prosecutor was going to be on maternity leave? Unless the defense attorneys had something to do with conception, they can't really be credited with that one...

I love Kellz. I hope he gets off. It's the government's fault for not bringing this to trial. What is the statute of limiations on this shit?

I’m trying to figure out what’s worse? R Child Rapist Kelly going on tour or an actual Chicagoist intern pool with a member of said intern pool playing the “Ignition (Remix)" in the “Chicagoist offices”, and Chicagoist writers dancing around a water cooler. Some how I picture, Linus, Sally Lucy, Pig Pin, Snoopy and the rest of the Peanuts dancing around like they did in A Charlie Brown Christmas special. And maybe you should actually consider the great traditions of R & B in American history before even calling R. Rapist Kelly “talented and prolific”. I think there are one hit wonders that will live on longer than he will unless its under the title of “infamous” and representative of the rise of American mediocrity as part of today’s Rap and Bullshit culture

Sorry Shannon. R. Kelly is all that. And a bag of chips.

Maybe I should have said "talented and prolific" instead? He really does have an innate talent for phrasing and melody that's frighteningly excellent.

You use the words "musical genius" far too lightly.
