R. Kelly Has A Tape That He’s Happy To Release

After a long post-acquittal silence that was punctuated by a couple of dissatisfying tracks, R. Kelly has returned to the full-length world with The Demo Tape, a DJ Skee/DJ Drama-produced mix that finds him taking on “Birthday Sex,” “Turn My Swag On,” and other hits of recent-ish vintage alongside some brand-new songs that might be on his forthcoming, untitled full-length (which I guess is replacing 12 Play: Fourth Quarter on the release docket).

“I took it all the way back to when I first started; all I had was my demo,” Kells told MTV. “It’s a way to start fresh, be humble. It’s like being a new artist. This is my demo tape for my fans.” Two warnings: There’s a fair amount of Autotune, and there’s even more super-explicit lyrics, as you might expect from a collection that includes songs titled “P.U.S.S.Y. Cry” and “Fuck Every Girl”–the latter finds R. bragging about his “dick and a half”–so you might want to get some headphones before taking time out of your work day to tune in.
