Despite years of documented allegations of statutory rape, which included hanging around Chicago-area middle and high schools to troll for "dates," the chart-topping R&B recording artist is still invited to perform at various industry events, including November's Soul Train Awards.
Known for blockbuster hits like "Trapped in the Closet," "I Believe I Can Fly" and "Fiesta," he is still producing and performing music distributed by RCA and working with other artists as a producer-songwriter.
I suppose a video of one Robert Sylvester Kelly urinating on a young girl wasn't enough to get him permanently banished by record label executives, because now, he's back with his 13th studio album aptly titled The Buffet.
He stopped by HuffPo Live Monday afternoon to promote the new record.
