R. Kelly Demands Respect From Young Thugs

It’s been months since Trey Songz dropped attempted to ether R. Kelly with his own rendition of “D.O.A.” and as he prepares to make his own push, for his own album, Kellz is finally responding.
He doesn’t go so far as to actually say dude’s name, but he does reference the new generation of R&B thugs.
“You cannot give your opinion and talk about someone who’s done what they’ve done in this industry; which is change the industry and brought a new genre of music and ideas to the industry and still doin’ it,” he says. “You don’t do that. It’s like tryna throw a rock on top of the SEARS Tower.”
He suggests toward the end of this exclusive with DJ Skee that he would never question the artisitc choices of any of his predecessors -Stevie Wonder, Donnie Hathaway and others among them. In essence, any artist attempting to go at him is more or less disrespecting the process that has taken years to materialize as it is today.
“Fortunately I am smart enough and I am wise enough that I don’t need to retaliate to sell my album, to be a better man a bigger man, or a tougher guy,” Kellz says before ending his spill. “I don’t need to retaliate to do any of that. And besides, elephants don’t swat flies.”
