R Kelly
R Kelly is an American R&B singer whose career collapsed amid revelations of sexual abuse.
Once among the genre's most successful artists—known for hits like "I Believe I Can Fly" and "Ignition (Remix)"—he was convicted in 2021-2022 of sex trafficking and racketeering involving minors.
His name now evokes predatory behavior toward young women: That guy's giving R Kelly vibes.
