R. Kelly & Aaliyah: Woman Claims To Be Their Biological Daughter

A woman on TikTok is claiming that disgraced R&B singer R. Kelly and the late Aaliyah Haughton are her biological parents. "Okay, y’all, my name is Love," she said. "My given name. I am the biological daughter of Aaliyah Haughton and Robert Kelly, R. Kelly. I just want to tell my truth and tell my mother’s truth because I feel like it’s time and it’s needed. I feel like I went through so many things as far as keeping this identity and deliberating with different family members. You know the energy, you guys know how it can get. I just want the world to know the best part of me. I am also accepting of my mother Aaliyah Haughton. I’ve been shook around…"

The woman's video was reposted on No Jumper's Instagram account where she received a lot of backlash to her claims. "Cap," one fan wrote. Another chimed in writing, "Why her eyes look at each other. She know she lying." "It’s black history month we don’t need this s--- now," another user wrote.

Some fans defended her and wanted to hear her out on a Twitter post. "S--- a lot has been going on and we don’t know. Don’t look at her and automatically because of how she looks people’s quick to judge that is not nice let’s give her a chance." Another fan responded to a user's comment that had laughing emojis, "That is not nice who knows if this is true or not."

R. Kelly's team and Aaliyah's estate have not addressed this woman's claims publicly as of yet. Back in December, R. Kelly spoke to Ricky Party from behind bars to address a rumor that he and his fiancé Joycelyn Savage had a baby.

"Hell naw! She didn’t have a child," the Chicago singer said.

R. Kelly has three children from his previous marriage to Andrea Kelly: 24-year-old Joann, 22-year-old Jaah, and 20-year-old Robert Jr.

It's the New Year and we've already heard a bunch of great new hip-hop and R&B. In January, there have been offerings from A$AP Rocky, Chlöe Bailey, Ice Spice, J. Cole, and more. Take a look at some of the best hip-hop and R&B releases of the year so far:

For her debut EP, Like..? Ice Spice tapped in fellow Bronx rapper Lil Tjay for "Gangsta Boo." The track sample's Diddy's "I Need a Girl (Part 2)." "Gangsta Boo" is Ice Spice's first Billboard Hot 100 chart entry at #82.

Quavo pours his heart out on the emotional tribute to the late Takeoff on "Without You." In the music video, Quavo is seen smoking in the studio as the track plays behind him. This is Quavo's first song since Takeoff's death on Nov. 1, 2022.

On the anniversary of A$AP Yams’ death (Jan. 15), A$AP Rocky released his first single of 2023, titled "Same Problems?" The track pays tribute to those who’ve recently died. In the song, he calls out the intention of actually getting involved to stop senseless killings in the community.

"Pray It Away" finds Chlöe regretting a previous relationship and wanting to focus on healing. The song is part of her rollout leading to her debut LP In Pieces which is set to be released in March.

J. Cole surprised fans by dropping "Procrastination (Broke)" to a Brooklyn producer's YouTube channel this month. In the song, Cole raps about still having the habit of putting things off in adulthood.

Cordae and Anderson .paak teamed up for their latest single "Two Tens." In the music video, both artists are seen in the club rapping back and forth in conversation about two friends. J. Cole and Dem Jointz produced the song.

In "Sucka Or Sum" Rae Sremmurd raps about refusing to be played. SremmLife 4 doesn't have a release date but the sibling duo will most likely have this track on the long-awaited album.

Midwxst and Denzel Curry teamed up for "Tally" this month. Just like the artists, the music video gives a unique twist on the 1942 classic film Casablanca.

Trippie Redd taps in a posthumous feature from JuiceWRLD on "Knight Crawler." This track appears on Trippie Redd's album Mansion Musik that debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 chart.

"If I Stop Now" is just one of the singles EST Gee has dropped in 2023. The Louisville native also released "Blow Up" on January 27. "If I Stop Now," is more of a melodic rap song from him where he addresses his mental health in contrast to his fame. "Blow Up" has an opposite vibe with booming 808s.
