R. Kelly
R. Kelly is a Grammy-winning R&B singer and songwriter who rose to fame in the 1990s with hits like 'I Believe I Can Fly.' However, his career has been overshadowed by serious legal issues, including his convictions for racketeering and sex trafficking, which led to a 30-year prison sentence. In 2021, he was found guilty of exploiting his fame to sexually abuse young women and girls over a span of more than 25 years.
