R. Kelly at Milwaukee Theatre
Like Michael Jackson, pre-eminent pop genius (no, we’re not kidding) R. Kelly has a bond with the public and his rabid, massive fan base that's so strong, seemingly nothing can sever it, not even allegations of sexual impropriety of the most scatological variety. But where Jackson retreated from the public eye, Kelly pops out albums and videos and insane new entries in the Trapped In The Closet series at a rapid clip. He’s unstoppable. To hold fans over between official releases, Kelly put out The Demo Tape mix-tape as part of DJ Drama’s legendary Gangsta Grillz series not too long ago. It’s a fun, comically oversexed, hook-filled romp through contemporary hip-hop and R&B that ranks as one of the year’s best releases. If Kelly’s forthcoming album is half as irresistible, it will be another winner.
