Sony Music dumps R. Kelly after controversial documentary

The ongoing drama swirling around the singer sparked a movement to "mute" Kelly previous year and it now appears bosses at Sony Music have responded by reportedly discontinuing their professional relationship with him.

Women's rights attorney Gloria Allred told reporters on Monday that her client Faith Rodgers, 20, faced "efforts to intimidate and retaliate" from Kelly after she filed the lawsuit now pending in New York's Supreme Court.

R. Kelly is no longer working with Sony Music, according to multiple reports.

RCA, owned by Sony Music has allegedly parted way with R. Kelly, sources say.

It said Kelly's catalog would remain with RCA.

Kelly, 52, released his last album in 2016.

Cadillac reveals its first electric vehicle
This vehicle will not be based on the electric architecture found on GM's Chevrolet models, the Volt or the Bolt EV. Cadillac says that what makes this framework different from others are the drive units and battery cells.

Billboard reported that the artist and Sony had agreed to part ways in the wake of the Lifetime series Surviving R. Kelly, which included accounts from his alleged victims.

Singer R. Kelly reaches out to fans as he performs during the Red Light Concert series at the Hasely Crawford Stadium in Port-of-Spain, November 2, 2013. A new album has been in the works; now it will not be on the imprint. Until recently, such accusations, which Kelly has consistently denied, didn't seem to have a large impact on his music career. "What I am hearing about the allegations against R. Kelly is absolutely horrifying and indefensible".

The documentary looked at decades of sexual abuse allegations against Kelly.

Months later in May, Spotify stopped promoting the work of the R&B singer.

Kelly has previously been accused of child pornography after a widely-circulated videotape appeared to show him having sex with an underage girl. As a outcome of the series, many artists and former collaborators have chosen to condemn Kelly, including John Legend and Chrissy Teigen, Chance The Rapper, and many others. He was acquitted of all charges.
