Kanye West commented on his fellow Chicagoan showing support, even in lockdown.
“My N***a Kells still got that Chicago spirit. They ain’t break him. And he got on Yeezy. On you Yeezy over everything,” Kanye tweeted after the photo went viral.
Kanye wasn’t the only person to chime in. After Kelly’s photo went viral, actor and comedian Michael Blackson said that he has begun to reevaluate how he feels about the R&B star.
“I was just looking at those R Kelly’s pics that surfaced yesterday while he’s in jail smh,” Blackson said.
“I lowkey feel so sad for how his life turned out. We can’t judge him because we don’t know the full story but from being a superstar to life in prison damn. My prayers to him and those affected by him.”

“It’s crazy. Motherf—rs going to be out there laughing and making comedian jokes and doing all that other s—t on the radio and everything else, but they a— could be next,” he said.

You can tell me on the weather is the sky blue, I’m not gonna believe the sh—. Because I’m in it now, I know what they do.”
