Friday Afternoon Diversion

Here at Chicagoist, R&B superstar and alleged water-sports enthusiast R. Kelly has given us more than our fill of laughs and head-scratching moments. Now it looks as though the "sexasaurus" has discovered the power of YouTube. His completely staged "Real Talk: Behind the Scenes" is the best meta singsong since Screaming Jay Hawkins had the "Constipation Blues." It's also loaded with profanity, so if you're at work, keep the volume low.

"Profanity represents how real shit gets when you arguing with your girl and shit." It ain't Rakim or Chuck D, but it is wisdom. You testify, Kells.

No, really, when are you gonna testify? Matter of fact, when are you ever gonna go to trial for supposedly peeing on that girl and taping it? Real talk.
