R.Kelly sold his album rights to Aaliyah’s family as an agreement that prevented them from pressing charges over illegal marriage.

Yuck.

so her family took a payout to keep quiet.....

and it's not like she came from a poor family. her family actually was pretty well off.

Disgusting. I wonder if this is what the new documentary will focus on?

I kind of want to see what happened to those girls afterwards as well

Sucks, but the damage was already done by that point. Plus I would struggle dragging my teenage daughter through that and having her relive that and putting it out in the public. Ultimately I'd have his ass in jail personally, but I do get why they took the money, IF it was to protect her. If it was just for money then fukk them.

This is why anytime i hear about a famous person messing around with underage people, i always call for the parents to be arrested too.
no way that can happen without their complicity. what kind of person would take a payout from someone who raped their daughter? scust.

Everybody involved in the whole R. Kelly debacle ain’t shyt…

 

[LongLiveDET]

Chess move, since his catalog is tainted now

 

[old pig]

I’ve personally listened to women talk about their mothers turning them out when they were younger for FAR less

 

[BlackMajik]

And where's the source for this

SayCheese is known for making up shyt u know

 

[Kingshango]

Every adult that Aaliyah has been around failed to the very end.

 

[UpAndComing]

Aaliyah's family is just as much to blame as R Kelly

Yea, why do you think the mother has remained silent for all these years.

Turns out she was fukking Kellz too

 

[ThrobbingHood]

Her uncle and the founder of Blackground records, Barry Hankerson, was still R.Kelly’s manager for years afterwards. Trust me, these child stars get pimped out by their parents everyday.

They knew what was happening, but he “crossed the line” once he married her and it got out.

Her family full of bytch ass nikkas

 

[@OffHalsted]

Cap, Sony/RCA own that shyt..

If this was true his shyt wouldn't be on streaming sites just like Aaliyah music wasn't...
