R. Kelly’s career took a knock after a string of sexual abuse allegations were made against him. He is currently on trial and remains behind bars following his arrest in 2019.
Kelly was shunned by the music industry, with many people removing his songs from their playlists.
The singer has written hit singles for stars such as Aaliyah, Britney Spears, Michael Jackson, and Destiny’s Child.
His legal team has admitted that he has “depleted” most of his funds.
