You read right. The Black Panties singer compared our favorite woman-bashing pop star to the likes of positive icons. Before you get your panties in a bunch (ba-dum-tss), let's just remember that Kelly has seen his fair share of controversy as well.
The singer states:
He got knocked down a little bit and he climbed up." he said. "You know, that sounds like Ali to me. That sounds like Martin Luther King to me. That sounds like a lot of the greats that have walked this earth. It even sounds a little bit like Jesus to me.That's a little steep for someone who knocks others down. I don't remember Jesus hitting some 20 year old kid in the face in D.C. Oh wait, maybe that's the Ali part.
He goes on to clarify:
I'm not saying that Chris Brown is Jesus or R. Kelly is Jesus. But Jesus is the No 1 inspirer of someone being knocked down and rising again.
Jesus is also the #1 "inspirer" of many positive things and was crucified by others. No one has crucified, much less "knocked down" Chris Brown yet. But when it happens, you'll definitely see it here first.
What do you think of the comparison? Is it true or is it a stretch?
