In this lively episode of Queue Points live, hosts DJ Sir Daniel and Jay Ray tackle one of the most polarizing questions in Black music history: Is R. Kelly the greatest American songwriter? 🤔 (Spoiler Altert - NO, he's not.) Fueled by viral social media hot takes, they unpack the complexity of R. Kelly’s legacy—from his undeniable musical genius to the societal implications of celebrating his work in light of his personal controversies.

Through a mix of humor, cultural critique, and deep analysis, they explore how R. Kelly’s music became a cornerstone of Black nostalgia, his mastery of the pop music formula, and the reasons his songs still resonate despite his downfall. Is it possible to separate the art from the artist? And where does R. Kelly stand in the pantheon of great songwriters like Smokey Robinson and Carole King? Tune in to find out!
