No more promotion for Best Of Both Worlds

Def Jam has canceled all promotions surrounding the R.Kelly/Jay-Z collaboration album, Best Of Both Worlds. After having $100,000 press day at New York's Waldorf Astoria that attracted Russell Simmons, Johnnie Cochran and Puff Daddy to name a few, the plug has been pulled to avoid any negativity being placed on one of Def Jam's top artists.
"We don't want any negative associations that might come with a video, any accusations or anything," Def Jam president Kevin Lyles told Time magazine in a recent issue. Jay-Z will not appear with Kelly in any pictures either and recently had his removed from the Vibe magazine which feature R. Kelly on the cover.
Protests have erupted nation wide over the controversy. Ten protesters led by Rev. Bamani Obadele and Illinois state Representative Ken Junkin smashed R. Kelly CD's at the Chicago radio station, WGCI. The protesters are urging the station to stop playing Kelly's music until he issues an explanation. Kelly phoned in to the station and claimed that he was a victim of his own fame, saying "When you're famous, they expect you to work miracles, and I'm not God."
In Philly, a gay and lesbian group known as Racial Unity is picketing Sam Goody record stores to prevent the chain from selling any R. Kelly music. Just last week, Kelly agreed to settle a lawsuit for an undisclosed sum brought against him by Tracy Sampson, who claims that Kelly talked her into having sex with him when she was 17 years old.
In Milwaukee, police arrested DJ Homer Blow of WNOV-AM for hosting a nightclub showing of the video tape, which allegedly shows R. Kelly having sex with an underage girl and urinating on her. Blow was also fired from WNOV for his antics.

Dannm!!! the shitt is really hittin' the fan big time.
If the foo (R KellY) did this then he should go down for what he did, If it wasn't him that did it, or if it was a set-up of some sort's. (Yo sceaming bitches are crazy) Then this situation has handed his Star a serious blow.
Not even his talent can bring him back from it.
Like a millenium "Bobby Brown".
"I in no way wish to offend Ladies in any way by refering to them as bitches in my commentary...it's to those women who are sceaming bitches I'm refering to
The one's who are out to get paid without doing shitt...but fuck and play the blame game"
I love women.....but hate Bitchez
