We haven't put Soulacoaster: The Diary of Me, the autobiography of New Jack Swing pioneer and noted water sports enthusiast R. Kelly, on our Goodreads list yet. But after watching actor Gary Oldman read a passage from the book on Jimmy Kimmel Live, we're damn well hoping for an full audiobook version narrated by Commissioner Gordon himself.

This may even top the time David Letterman had James Earl Jones read from Howard Stern's Private Parts.
