2018 IN REVIEW

What’s Poppin!

Lifetime Docuseries “Surviving R.Kelly”

10+ women come forward and tell their experience with RKelly, including remarks about him and Aaliyah’s relationship. More than half were under age- 14 to 17 when they initially met him; only 2 women >>were over 30 and they were huge fans. All these women were mentally and physically abused, manipulated and brainwashed. They were isolated from everyone including family. Sparkle’s niece met RKelly when she was 12 and is allegedly the girl in the infamous sextape. She was apart of a group called 4 the Cause, her identity has not been revealed on the docuseries but I believe her name is Reshonna or Shonna Landfair-Edwards
Sales increased significantly after docuseries released … Why? Jada Pinkett releases video and needs answers
