Sunday Bloody Asshat
Is there such a thing as too much self-esteem? In the case of R. Kelly, why don't you judge for yourself?
From an upcoming interview in Hip-Hop magazine, musician R. Kelly is quoted as saying:
"I'm the Ali of today. I'm the Marvin Gaye of today. I'm the Bob Marley of today. I'm the Martin Luther King, or all the other greats that have come before us. And a lot of people are starting to realize that now."
Even though no punchline I could come up with here would be even a fraction as offensive as an alleged child pornographer holding himself in the same esteem as the leader of the American Civil Rights movement, I'll refrain.
All I can say is wow. Just... wow.

this is the kind of stupidity that you respond to with a "Yeah. Nice going, fuckface."

I'm sorry, did he say something? I was too busy looking at his stupid belt buckle. And to what affliction do we owe the snazzy bandage on his right arm? I couldn't take seriously anything a person dressed like that has to say. Perhaps someone should remind him of all the other folks who have talked about how "big" they are or are going to be (do you hear me Terence Trent D'arby?) whose music careers spiraled quickly downward. Buh-bye! Don't mess with the kiddies on your way out, cuz we're watchin'.

What? Don't ALL great men have sex with, videotape and pee on pre-pubescent girls? Unbelievable. He needs to get over himself . . . IMMEDIATELY.

All I know to say is "I wanna piss on you." Dave Chapelle classic.

Also, I'd like to see him head into the big house with a pink do-rag. Let's see how he turns out after that.
