Outspoken rapper and activist Talib Kweli took to Twitter to voice his disgust in response R. Kelly’s new song “I Admit It.”
In a thread of tweets, Kweli lit into the “Bump and Grind” singer.
“I just read the lyrics to R. Kelly’s new 19-minute song. His lack of self-awareness is atrocious,” Kweli said. “There are several lyrics I take offense to. The one I will address is ‘I’m just a man.’ I am also a man. I would never use that to defend this behavior. He didn’t admit [expletive]. He blamed the victims [and] called them [expletive].
He blamed their parents. He bragged about [expletive] in his Benz, said we just mad he has girlfriends and regaled us with tales of how he likes to spank and pull hair. That was the worst apology/admission ever.”
