It’s barely been 48 hours since R. Kelly released his 19-minute “I Admit It” song, addressing some of the allegations against him and already, his wife and kids’ mother, Drea Kelly, has MUCH to say about it. Y’all already know that over the past few weeks, Kellz’s ex-wife of 12 years, has suddenly turned into quite the public spokesperson against him. She’s faced a TON of backlash from fans, because she waited nearly 10 years to finally make her public claims of physical abuse against R. Kelly.
Now…it seems Kelly’s “I Admit It” song has ignited her “ignition” from level 1 to 1,000. She’s now slammin’ him something SERIOUS online. Oh…and did we mention that Drea used the help of “Celie” from “The Color Purple” to do it? See what went down below…
Recap Of R. Kelly’s Odd Confessional Song & Slamming Of Celebs Who Attacked Him
Now, I must admit that R. Kelly’s new track (below) did seen a tadbit odd at times.
For one, he’s throughly aware of the underage sexual allegations against him lately, yet, he used a sample of Aaliyah to help get his point across. The late songstress was once rumored to be Kelly’s wife, when he was in his 20’s and she was approximately 15 years old. So um…yeah, that probably wasn’t the wisest musical choice in this scenario.
The other reason it was a little odd, was because in addressing the allegations against him, he admitted that he likes both “older and younger” – a statement that he probably should’ve left out altogether…UNLESS he was REALLY going to go into detail about just HOW young he’s referring to. For example: Kelly recalled his first time meeting Joycelyn Savage- the 23 year old woman whose parents sent her to live with R. Kelly (which is also odd on their part), but now claim he’s brainwashed and/or kidnapped her (which she adamantly denies). According to Kelly, he and Joycelyn were instantly attracted to each other, when her parents brought her backstage to meet him. During that time, Joycelyn was still a teenager according to Mr. and Mrs. Savage. So again, Kellz prolly should’ve left certain topics alone…UNLESS he was ready to REALLY go there…but he didn’t.
As far as his other topics, they were pretty straight forward. Kelly called out Steve Harvey, John Legend and Tom Joyner for publicly attacking him without knowing all the facts. He also addressed the extreme money problems that the sex cult rumors and other recent allegations have caused him, as well as his illiteracy and child molestation of his own. Now Drea’s got something to say…
Drea Goes OFF About R. Kelly’s “I Admit”
Drea has been going off on social media, following the song’s release. She’s urging people to seek help if they’re in an abusive relationship and she’s also calling out Kelly, telling him to “admit he abused her and other women. In one of her pissed off posts, Drea used a photo of Whoopi Goldberg’s “Celie” character, to get her point across. Check out her post below:
The “Celie” image was from the “Color Purple” scene where “Celie” pointed her two fingers at “Albert” (Danny Glover) and told him “Until you do right by me, everything you even think about gonna fail!” That was obviously a symbolical image of Drea implying she was “Celie” in this scenario and R. Kelly is the low-down “Albert” character.
In another Instagram post, Drea wrote:
“I am a voice for the voiceless! I will NEVER STOP. Just because I SPEAK UP doesn’t mean I’m not healed. Because I am healed… I SPEAK UP! #DomesticViolenceAwareness 365”
Even though Drea is slammin’ the hell outta her ex-husband all over social media, fans are still slammin’ her for not making her claims sooner. They’re now accusing her of doing this for fame and/or to revive her reality TV career. Drea has adamantly denied those accusations as well.
On another note, ILOSM family, how are y’all feelin’ about R. Kelly’s “I Admit It?”
