R Kelly Bankrupt, Owes Nearly $1 Million In Unpaid Taxes


R Kelly Bankrupt, Owes Nearly $1 Million In Unpaid Taxes

R Kelly, who is currently living in Chicago, has reportedly failed to pay $837,000  to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and is therefore been given a tax lien.

The ‘I Belive I Can Fly’ singer was also ordered to pay $1,036,858 in tax seperately from the money he had already owed the IRS.  Friends and family are concerned that the singer will end up bankrupt after record labels see no future in R Kelly’s music.

R Kelly, real name Robert Kelly, who released ‘Love Letter‘, his tenth studio album disappointed record execs after previous albums reached sales of over 1 million. His latest single ‘Radio Message‘ which debuted last month turned out to be a massive flop, not even entering the Billboard top 100.

Kelly also underwent an operation two weeks ago due to breathing problems, it is unknown if he will still be able to sing after he has recovered.

    R. Kelly is NOT bankrupt!!! Just because he owes 800K+ in back taxes doesn’t mean he’s bankrupt!

    People and their assumptions. PFFT!

    This whole article is fabricated!

    1. R. Kelly doesn’t owe over 1 million in back taxes. He got that lifted already and there’s no doubt in my mind that he will pay off this ~800k tax lien if he already paid the ~1,000,000 tax lien.

     2. The Love Letter album did very well without promotion and the record executives at Jive and Sony echoed these sentiments! They’re actually pleased by the performance of Love Letter and the singles! The album is certified Gold and still consistently selling. Love Letter was also praised by several music critics! It’s a critically acclaimed album.

    3.  Love Letter and Radio Message are hits on Urban AC formats! Radio Message is a R&B song that was NOT sent to Pop formats therefore the single is NOT a flop. It’s doing very well on Urban AC! That’s audience the single and the album is intended for! Again, R. Kelly has done ZERO promotion for these singles. Especially, Love Letter. It’s still climbing up the R&B and radio airplay charts!

    4. R. Kelly underwent emergency throat surgery a WEEK ago and it wasn’t because of breathing problems. It’s because he had an infection on one of his tonsils and this happened because he’s a SINGER and he overworked his tonsils. Also it doesn’t help that he’s a heavy smoker too so that might’ve caused the infection, as well.

    So please do extensive research before posting.

    Thanks!
