Twitter users are dragging R&B singer Erykah Badu after she mentioned R. Kelly and the numerous sexual abuse allegations against him at a concert in Chicago on Saturday. “I’m putting up a prayer right now for [R. Kelly],” Badu told audience members at the Aragon Ballroom. “I hope he sees the light of day if he’s done all those things that we’ve seen on TV and heard those ladies talk about. Badu continued, “What if one of the people that was assaulted by R. Kelly grows up to be an offender? It’s just something to think about.”It’s unclear if Badu meant to defend R. Kelly in her remarks.
