A commenter said: ‘One thing about black people is they enjoy watching their own people get dragged they don’t care if he innocent.’

One other follower posted this: ‘Free R.Kelly🙏🏾🙏🏾The greatest R&B singer who has ever lived,’ and a follower said: ‘A lot of the comments saying free him then complain about how black children and women are the most unprotected people in society. Like choose one. Are you pro protecting black women and children from predators no matter who they are or is all that protest & unity fake.’

Despite the egregious allegations against him, R. Kelly has reportedly received both doses of the coronavirus vaccine. As most know, the R&B singer-songwriter is currently sitting behind bars on very serious charges, including human trafficking, abuse, and sexual assault.
