Song: Red Carpet (Pause, Flash)Album: Happy People/U Saved Me
Whoa, whoa, whoa. In another song, just a few posts down from this one, R. distinctly says, "Yeah, I'm braggin' and I don't give a fuck." And yet here he claims that he doesn't mean to brag, but um. So which is it, R.?
Seconds after asking that question, I realize: Who among us doesn't change their mind? We all sometimes intend to brag, and other times don't mean to brag, but um. And we're totally allowed to say one thing one time and another thing another time. This isn't a court of fucking law or anything.
And even if it was, R. Kelly is totally within his rights to say/do one thing one time and say/do another thing another time. It seems weird that judges are denying him that right. Who do they think they are?
One possible explanation for R. changing his point of view on bragging is simply time. In 2004, when R. released this album, he really didn't mean to brag, but um. Later, in 2008, having probably received so much judgment from judges and other people for offenses like "Bragging" and "peeing on 12 year olds", he was frustrated and more inclined to just end the conversation already. So he's like, "yeah. I'm bragging. And I don't give a fuck. [so go "convict" someone else, you big jerk.]"
I really appreciate that R. is a man who isn't afraid to grow.

You can only really go on for so long in a position like R. Kelly's (being such a songwriting genius and an outstanding lover to boot) without eventually resorting to bragging as means of communications. What ELSE is he supposed to talk about? He SHOULD talk about how great he is in bed/ rich he is/ talented he is/ drunk he is.
