What Happened To R Kelly?


Back in the 90s, R Kelly was known as the king of R&B. He revived a dying genre with his monstrous hits like Bump n Grind, I Believe I Can Fly, and Ignition. Kelly was not only a singer he had a cultural impact, he made R&B mainstream.

The Fight For R. Kelly's $1.5 Million Dollar Royalty Account

 


R. Kelly has more than $1.5 million in a royalties account with Sony, the singer’s former record label. The question now: Who gets that money?


R. Kelly’s former Near West Side landlord secured a $3.5 million judgment earlier this year against the jailed singer to cover past-due rent. A woman sued the singer last year, alleging sexual abuse, and was awarded $4 million. That woman, who the Chicago Sun-Times is not naming, is one of Kelly’s four alleged victims in his pending criminal case in Cook County.


After the awards were issued in each suit, attorneys for both plaintiffs contacted Sony with a “citation to discover assets,” which revealed Kelly had $1,544,333 in a now-frozen royalties account.

New Memoir Reveals Prince ‘Cheated’ Bassist Out Of Millions

 


For Mark Brown, the head games began with a cold call from Prince in 1981. And they ended, six years later, with the bassist — rechristened BrownMark, by Prince — confident that the rock star had derailed him out of millions in songwriting royalties.


As related in BrownMark’s new memoir, “My Life in the Purple Kingdom” (University of Minnesota Press), playing with Prince was the best of times and the worst of times — often at the same time. Like when he was cast in the movie musical “Purple Rain.”


“I took drama classes, joined SAG and acted in the movie,” Brown, 58, told The Post. “Then all my scenes were cut. Prince came up with some lame excuse about having to make the movie shorter.”


Before the fast talk and subterfuge, there was that unexpected call. Brown, then 19, took it in the Minneapolis rec center where his funk band rehearsed. “The first thing that went through my mind was that it couldn’t be Prince,” Brown said. “It was surreal.”

What If R. Kelly Is Found Innocent?


It's been seven times the embattled singer has been arraigned on sexual abuse-related charges in a little more than a year.

The new indictment adds several allegations of abuse involving a victim referred to only as Jane Doe 5. Two of the new counts carry mandatory minimum sentences of 10 years in prison if convicted, according to prosecutors.

But what if R. Kelly is found innocent through all this or the case gets thrown out due to lack of evidence? Does this mean R. Kelly gets to sue the justice system along with the people who helped to bring him down?

R. Kelly Pleads Not Guilty


R. Kelly has pleaded not guilty to a set of federal sex-trafficking charges leveraged against him in New York in mid-March, including those that he knowingly spread herpes to two people. He entered the plea via teleconference from a Chicago federal jail on Thursday.

As the coronavirus pandemic has escalated, Kelly has requested early release from prison twice, and was most recently denied on April 22. Kelly was indicted on multiple state and federal sex-abuse charges in New York, Illinois, and Minnesota last year. He has so far pleaded not guilty to all charges against him.

How Many Attempts Are They Going To Take To Bring Down R. Kelly


I don't know what the FEDs and the media are trying to achieve by trying to bring down the King of R&B, but so far, every attempt has been unsuccessful. From having so called medical records, to new victims coming out of the wood work, how much does it take to bring down one man.

Singer R. Kelly allegedly gave a 19-year-old fan a sexually transmitted disease by having unprotected sex with her despite knowing that he had herpes, new court documents claim. I'm like. com-on, are they doing everything to make R. Kelly look bad or not? This is just a bad look for the singer.

So recently, new documents were filed in Brooklyn Federal Court, that went on to claim that Kelly met with Doe after the performance at a hotel room that he booked for her and had unprotected sex with her.

R Kelly Pleads The Fifth


R Kelly has elected to employ his fifth amendment right to avoid self-incrimination in a civil case brought against him over allegations of sexual abuse. Kelly’s lawyers are concerned that him providing testimony in the civil proceedings could end up influencing the concurrent criminal cases he is fighting in the states of New York, Illinois and Minnesota.

The musician was sued by Heather Williams in February on the same day that criminal charges were brought against him in Illinois. She claims that she met Kelly in 1998 when she was sixteen. He invited her to his studio on the promise of allowing her to appear in a music video, but instead they became involved in a sexual relationship.

The star’s legal team failed in an attempt to have the case dismissed due to the statute of limitations. Judge Moira S Johnson rejected those efforts, saying that Williams may not have known as a minor that she had been abused.

Kelly’s team asked for the case to be put on hold pending the criminal proceedings. Or at least that their client could “plead the fifth”, ie employ his right under the US constitution to avoid being forced to incriminate himself.

My Trip To Bloomington Mall

Bloomington Mall
My trip to the Mall Of America was great. I loved how you walked into the main entrance and saw QVC live on t.v. and then the memorable theme park in the center. Different floors of the building have different selections to choose from.

Since opening its doors in 1992, Mall of America® has revolutionized the shopping experience and become a leader in retail, entertainment and attractions. The Mall of America is a shopping mall located in Bloomington, Minnesota.

There was once a time in my life when I lived in Redwing, MN which is only around a 40 minute drive from Bloomington. I was having the ball of my life. This came during a time I was turning into a man and was wanting to make a name for myself.

The Mall carried some of the hottest women and you knew of the best parties. When I was there, Juvenile promoters approached me about a event and handed me a flyer, and just as I know it, Juvenile walks up and shake my hand and keeps going.

With 520 shops, 50 restaurants and action-packed attractions, there's a lot to get lost in. Mall of America(R) is one of the top tourist destinations in the country! The Mall welcomes more than 40 million visitors a year from across the country.

I Done Did Everything But This


When I hear people say they done did everything in life, I get to wondering what? For facts I done did alot in my lifetime. I was young moving out on my own. I was 17 years-old with 2 cars and my own place. By the time I was 20, I was headed to trade school and buying my first place to live.

I always lived my life in the fast lane even if I was not into the fast life. Now it's a new time and its time for switch ups in my life. I been releasing singles for a few years now, but it's time for visuals. Not just that, i've gain national attention without doing shows. I claim myself as the most known unknown.




I've been to places like Mall Of America, lived in various places such as Florida, Mississippi, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Ohio, and Illinios. I've always been known for carrying studios and videos. Still, I have no visuals and presses. That's where the beginning takes off.

Elijah Cummings Talks Police Killings

Cummings, who is black, all but begged Comey to do something to help break the pattern of unarmed black people being killed by police. Just this week, Alton Sterling was shot dead in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, while selling CDs outside of a convenience store, and Philando Castile was shot and killed near St. Paul, Minnesota, after being pulled over for a busted tail light.

Representative Elijah Cummings, a Democrat from Maryland and ranking member of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, waits to begin a hearing with James Comey, director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), not pictured, in Washington, D.C., U.S., on Thursday, July 7, 2016. Comey is appearing before the committee to explain his finding that no reasonable prosecutor would bring a criminal case against Hillary Clinton, the former secretary of state and presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, even though she and her staff were extremely careless in their handling of highly classified information.

The Maryland Democrat said he woke up Thursday morning “to my wife literally crying” while watching a video of Sterling being shot. Then she watched the video of Castile bleeding out in his car. Cummings, who represents the majority of the mostly black neighborhoods of Baltimore, said he’s fortunate he’s never been harmed by police. Still, he said he’s been pulled over “50 million times” for no clear reason, and it’s all connected to people of color being targeted by law enforcement.

Gansta Marcus Talk The Return Of Missy Elliott

The producer out of Lima, Ohio releases a statement in the return of the great +Missy Elliott. "I feel this is a big moment of the era of the 90's. Missy was one of my favorite artist while living on the roads of Minnesota. She gave me motivation, then came back with hit songs like "Get Your Freak On."

Katy Perry and artist Missy Elliott perform onstage during the Pepsi Super Bowl XLIX. When asked about it, Gansta Marcus had this to say: The performance was huge, its was the bigining of a whole new life for Missy. This opened up a complete door for her and gave her a new platform to shine. Missy Elliott stole the show during halftime of last night's Super Bowl!"

Melissa Arnette "Missy" Elliott is an American singer, songwriter, rapper, and record producer. Her first major success came as a songwriter with childhood friend and producer Timbaland. Gansta Marcus then wanted to speak on the name +TimbalandVEVO and had this to say! Timbaland was one of the greatest producers of his time. When he dropped a hit, he really dropped a hit that no-one could compete with. If this man touched your song, the he created life to it."

When asked should +Missy Elliott return to the music industry, Gansta Marcus made this responce: "She should go off, even if its for one last album. I know she done built up some momentum during her time off give give her new crowd a great piece of work. Welcome back! and Thank You +Katy Perry for this unforgetable moment."

Shawn Marion Signs With Cavaliers


+Shawn Marion has just struck a deal with the +Cleveland Cavaliers. Free-agent forward Shawn Marion has committed to sign with the Cleveland Cavaliers, according to league sources. Sources told ESPN.com that Marion informed the Cavaliers this weekend that he intends to sign with them this month, despite the fact that Cleveland can only offer him a minimum deal.

The chance to play with LeBron James and immediately compete for a championship, sources said, clinched Marion’s decision to choose Cleveland in the face of a ramped-up pursuit by the Indiana Pacers. As ESPN.com reported earlier this week, Pacers president Larry Bird invited Marion to Indianapolis earlier this week for a face-to-face recruiting pitch over dinner, with Indiana in desperate need of veteran help on the wing after the season-ending compound leg fracture suffered by star swingman Paul George on Aug. 1

The Cavaliers have widely been considered to be the front-runners to sign Marion since it emerged that they’re poised to complete a trade for Minnesota’s Kevin Love later this month. Cleveland is restricted to offering Marion a minimum salary of $1.4 million this season after using all of its cap resources and exceptions elsewhere.

The Pacers confirmed this week that they’ve already been granted a $5.3 million disabled player exception by the league in the wake of George’s season-ending injury suffered on Team USA duty, so Indiana did have the means to outbid Cleveland. But the Pacers would stray into luxury tax territory if they spend more than $1.7 million of that exception, with Bird vowing at his news conference that Indiana — maintaining a longstanding team policy — remains unwilling to be a tax team.

Sources say that Marion had been telling teams for weeks that he hoped to wind up with a championship contender if he left the Dallas Mavericks in free agency. Marion spent the past five seasons with the Mavs and helped them win the first championship in franchise history in 2011 as a key role player who guarded players at four positions.
