A group of American parents have accused R&B icon R Kelly of holding their daughters against their wills and keeping them for his sexual pleasures.

A BuzzFeed article reports that although on the surface Kelly has not committed any crime, he has brainwashed several young women aged between 18 and 25 of abandoning their families to live with him.

According to the report, there are at least five women who have lived with him in the last one year.

‘A 31-year-old ‘den mother’ who ‘trained’ newcomers on how Kelly liked to be pleasured sexually. She was once the best friends with the girl in the videotape for which Kelly was tried in 2008; a 25 year old woman who also has been with him since she was 1,a 19 year old model who has been photographed in public with R Kelly, a 26 year old songwriter who began her relationship with him when she was 19 and an 18 year-old singer who is said to be his favourite girl at the moment.’

Two other women who once had similar arrangements with R Kelly told Buzzfeed that he charms young women to imagine that their lives with him would be lavish but soon changes when they move in with him. ‘Women who live with R Kelly are not allowed to call their friends and family and call him ‘Daddy.’ They also not allowed to wear anything apart from jogging suits to prevent their bodies from being exposed.’ Strangely enough for someone who once almost got jailed for recording a sexual act with a minor, he reportedly records his sexual activities with these ‘babies’.

Meanwhile, in a video interview with TMZ.com Jocelyn denied she was being held against her will and said she was happy with her life.

“I am in a happy place in my life, and I’m not being brainwashed or anything like that,” she said in the video, recorded from an undisclosed location.

She added, “I just want everybody to know, my parents and everybody in the world, that I am totally fine. I’m happy where I’m at, and everything is okay with me…I’ve never been held hostage or anything of that nature.”

However, when asked where she was, if she has other roommates or if she was free to leave where she was living she said, “I wouldn’t want to speak on that.”

Jocelyn revealed that she had not spoken to her parents in around six months but said she still received text messages from them. She said she had limited her contact with them because of the allegations they had made about Kelly.

The Savages and another unnamed set of parents claim Kelly is controlling their daughter. McGee and two other former associates of the musician allege he is controlling the lives of six women living at a guest house next to his home in Duluth, Georgia and a recording studio he rents in Chicago, Illinois.

Through his lawyer the I Believe I Can Fly singer, real name Robert Sylvester Kelly, has denied the accusations.

“Mr. Robert Kelly is both alarmed and disturbed by the recent revelations attributed to him,” his attorney Linda Mensch told TMZ in a statement. “Mr. Kelly unequivocally denies such accusations and will work diligently and forcibly to pursue his accusers and clear his name.”

His neighbours in Duluth have also denied seeing anything untoward at the home he rents in the community.

OdumoduBlvck recently praised Mavin Records founder Don Jazzy in an interview with Beats FM.

The rapper discussed his latest project, “Nothing Changed,” a collaborative effort with the Anti-World Gangsters crew. The album features Don Jazzy on the track “Asampete.”

OdumoduBlvck revealed that after recording “Asampete,” he felt the song would benefit from Don Jazzy’s contribution. When approached, Don Jazzy readily agreed to the request.

During their meeting, Don Jazzy not only added his vocals to the song but also surprised OdumoduBlvck with a generous gift of $10,000.

Impressively, Don Jazzy declined any royalties for his contribution to the track.

“When I went to his house to get his vocals, he gave me $10,000 and even my friend was asking me why he gave me such a huge amount of money,” he narrated in the interview.

OdumoduBlvck further praised Don Jazzy, describing him as the most original personality in the Nigerian music industry and a true icon.

“There’s nobody more original than Don Jazzy…The way the younger artists look up to Burna Boy, Davido, Wizkid, and Olamide today is how they used to look up to Don Jazzy”.

OdumoduBlvck’s praise for Don Jazzy’s generosity and influence on the Nigerian music industry echoes sentiments expressed by numerous artists whose careers have been shaped by the Mavin Records boss.

Four-time Grammy nominee Davido has credited Don Jazzy and D’banj’s flamboyant lifestyle for inspiring him to relocate to Nigeria and pursue his musical aspirations.

Don Jazzy’s philanthropic endeavours also continue to make headlines. Recently, he donated a substantial sum of 100 million naira to Very Dark Man’s charity.

Actress Sola Sobowale commented simply, “Fact.”

Other followers shared their thoughts, with one writing, “Anyone who is always seeking validation from the public whenever he or she does something, just know say that person no clear 💯.”

“Caring what people think about you is natural. Letting it drive your behaviours and keep you from doing things you believe in is usually a sign of,” said another person.

Another Instagram user shed more light on the issue, saying,

“codependency conditioning. The core belief in codependency is: what people think of me defines what I think of me. My mother always said, “Your opinion of me is none of my business.” It can get real exhausting perceiving yourself through the eyes of others. No matter how pure your intention, you cannot control how people receive you. Give others the freedom to perceive you as they wish, for it’s merely a reflection of themselves and not your reality. Never mind who sees you. Do you see you?”

“I don’t like people who wanna be liked by everyone, just do you and move on,”

“Thisss ,it’s okay to be a bad person in another persons story ,Only God is PERFECT 👍”

Elozonam Reflects On How “Japa” Makes It Hard For Him To Make Friends

Elozonam on how ‘japa’ makes it hard for him to make friends | fab.ng

Former BBNaija star and content creator Elozonam revealed how Nigeria’s “japa” syndrome—where individuals emigrate in search of better opportunities abroad—has impacted his personal relationships, especially with friends and family.

During a conversation on the Uncoloured Podcast, hosted by fellow BBNaija alum Venita, Elozonam candidly shared how his twin brother’s relocation has significantly altered their once-close dynamic.

“For my twin brother and I, being twins, we naturally used to argue a lot,” Elozonam said. “But after he left, there was nothing to fight about. Now I have to consciously reach out to him because there are days or weeks when I don’t hear from him. It’s frustrating, but I understand that everyone has to do what they need to survive and build a better life.”

Elozonam reflected on how the japa wave has reshaped his social circle. He traced the trend back to 2018 when his former boss moved abroad with his family.

“That seemed to open the floodgates,” he said. “Since then, people have been leaving one after the other. It’s exhausting. You become hesitant to form new friendships because you don’t know if they’ll just up and leave tomorrow.”

He expressed deep frustration about Nigeria’s deteriorating economy and infrastructure. He acknowledged that unemployment, insecurity, and poor living conditions push many Nigerians to seek better opportunities in other countries.

“Between 2018 and 2024, I’ve seen so many people leave. Nigeria isn’t improving, and everyone wants a better future. It’s hard to blame them, but it’s also hard for those of us left behind.”

Watch the interview below.

“…you’re now too wary of making new friends. Nigeria is not getting any better. We all know this”
