3. Benzino Speaks On R Kelly
In a recent appearance on the We In Miami Podcast, Benzino sparked controversy by arguing that R Kelly deserves a second chance at freedom. The disgraced singer is currently serving 31 years in prison for federal racketeering and sex trafficking charges involving sexual abuse of minors.
Benzino’s comments were captured by Hollywood Unlocked, where he compared Kelly’s situation to that of Elvis Presley, who also had relationships with young girls. He pointed out that the legal age of consent in America is 16, questioning why Kelly is facing such a harsh sentence for being involved with girls who were only a couple of years younger.
The clip of Benzino’s remarks on the podcast was shared on Instagram, leading to a mixed response from fans. While some disagreed with Benzino and cited Kelly’s history with underage girls, others supported his argument that Kelly shouldn’t be condemned to 30 years in prison.
This isn’t the first time Benzino has made controversial statements. Earlier this year, he referred to Eminem as “Rap Elvis” in a diss track, stirring up more debate in the hip-hop community.
As the discussion around R Kelly’s case continues, it’s clear that opinions on his fate remain divided. Stay tuned for more updates on this ongoing story.
