THE FALL OF AN AMERICAN IDOL by
e.graham
The 30-year sentence of disgraced Chicago-born R &B
singer R.Kelly, who won three Grammys and sold over 75 million records
worldwide, was right on KEY. Especially, after the last Verzuz performance by
Ray J, Omarion, and Jeremiah, who sang slight OFF-KEY, which left many
listeners and fans feeling bamboozled and disappointed.
With these young crooners or "cooners" sounding
like an old HOUNDDOG howling at the moon, with perfect timing, Hollywood
promoted the NEW ELVIS PRESLEY movie directed by Baz Luhrmann, who teamed up
with Austin Butler and Tom Hanks to tell the dramatic life story of "one
of the greatest singers" ever to perform on stage.
Ironically, while the world criticizes R.Kelly's
relationship with a young pop-star Aaliyah Dana Haughton, Elvis, at the age of
24 years old, met his future wife, Priscilla, at 14, serving in the US Army in
West Germany in 1959.
In perfect harmony, Kelly, 55, conviction for federal
racketeering and sex trafficking charges stemming from his efforts over years

years in prison for trafficking underage girls with Jeffrey Epstein, an American financier, who died in a New York
prison cell on 10 August as he awaited, without the chance of bail, between
1994 and 2004, where she recruited and groomed them, in the wake of the MeToo
movement, which encouraged women to speak out about sexual abuse, often at the
hands of wealthy and powerful people.

who, according to his brother, was molested by their older sister, as a small
child, unfortunately, continued this evil cycle as an adult.
This is why (Luke 6:37,) states: "Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven.
But, remember, there
is another judgment pending, for the R &B Star, which according to
Revelations 20:12-13, states "small and great, stand before God; and the
books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and
the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books,
according to their works, which one's spiritual judgment.
