R. Kelly Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von R. Kelly:

'The Notebook' was beautiful, and I was crying because its hero and heroine had died together.

With my gift, I can pretty much write a song out of anything.

R. Kelly

Country music tells stories, and I've always loved to tell stories.

R. Kelly

I am very conscious of who I am as an artist and as an inspirational person.

R. Kelly

I've always wanted to write movies - I always used to tell my mom that I wanted to be a director.

R. Kelly

I only feel sorry for weak people. And mostly what I've come to find is that the weak people are the ones that are the haters.

R. Kelly

I want people to notice my writing abilities are real and that I'm not just stuck in one situation.

R. Kelly

Always believe what you see - with your own eyes, that is. Always believe what you see. That's the best way to go about this business. I've heard a lot of things about a lot of people, and it was never true.

R. Kelly

I've always had mostly women come out to see me perform. That's the reason the guys show up; they know R. Kelly is going to draw the women. Most of the songs I'm singing are catering to women anyway.

R. Kelly

In life, you have people that love to party. That's me. People that love God. That's me. People that love sex. That's me. People that love people. That's me. And people that make mistakes. That's me also.

R. Kelly

Before I can finish one song, another is knocking on my door in my head.

R. Kelly

When I first came in the business, I had a couple of close calls on planes going to London for shows. There was one time where the plane had to fly around until a storm ended, and then we started having a question about fuel, so we had to go through the storm. It was the worst thing that ever happened in my life. That really messed me up.

R. Kelly

My fans have always loved my metaphors.

R. Kelly

Downstairs in my house, I have a museum room. I keep all of my awards down there, and childhood photos, and even all the clothes I've worn on tour, in videos and on album covers.

R. Kelly

'The Notebook' was beautiful, and I was crying because its hero and heroine had died together.

R. Kelly

I'm a man that believes what I see, and everywhere I go... and everywhere I've been... I get nothing but love.

R. Kelly

There was a time I desperately needed for the world to know that I was no category guy. My whole goal in life was to reach that certain success where people will say, 'Hey, that guy can do anything. He's the Evel Knievel of music. He's jumping over 15 buses!'

R. Kelly

You're younger, you might want to go to clubs and kick it, but as you get older, you start seeing that life has more meaning to it. The people that you love are the people you want to start trusting and start wanting them to trust you and start respecting them.

R. Kelly

I started learning everybody's riffs, from Donny Hathaway to Jeffrey Osborne to James Ingram. That helped me create my own style of singing.

R. Kelly

There are so many songs in me that haven't been born yet. So I can't call myself a genius, but I never turn away a compliment, and I feel like I'm on my way to that mountain.

R. Kelly

If you're gonna tell your life story, you gotta be honest, or don't do it.

R. Kelly

You know, I'm no different from a fireman. You got to run into a fire no matter how big the blaze is.

R. Kelly

You don't see me in the club. And the reason is because I would rather be in the studio mixing these musical potions. Now sometimes they blow up in my face, and there's a lot of smoke. But that's who I am. Music is what I do.

R. Kelly

Not only did I get an A in music but I got an A in ladies.

R. Kelly

I wouldn't be able to do the songs as long as I've been doing if I didn't feel the pulse of the world. But I can feel people and I know what they want. I feel like I know how they are, because I am the people. And I just have a gift.

R. Kelly

If I could change anything, I would definitely have had a father around. My father. I would definitely say it affected me deeply as a young man, coming up. Who doesn't want a father? Those are the beginnings, and those are what can dictate the roads you choose in life, and choosing them well.

R. Kelly

My mother wasn't rich, and I never seen my father. I was a street performer. I've been shot. And now I'm known around the world, and I've touched a lot of people with my music. That's one of the great testimonies that's gonna go down in history.

R. Kelly

When you're me, when you're R. Kelly, everybody wants a piece of you, and if you don't give 'em a piece they'll find a way to get a piece of you one way or the other.

R. Kelly

I like to give people more than their money's worth.

R. Kelly

No matter how much money I make, no matter how many hit songs. I still perform like a street performer.

R. Kelly

'Love Letter' reminds me of 'Chocolate Factory' and 'Happy People.' It's a little bit of both of those, yeah. I just wanted it to be classy, man. And romantic. And maybe 10 percent sexy.

R. Kelly

I've programmed myself musically to come up with love-feeling tracks that are romantic, sexy, but classy, all in one. And that's the challenge. Once I create that music, then the lyrical content starts to come - you know, the stories and things like that.

R. Kelly

I learnt a whole lot from my mother. About music, relationships, being a good person, loving people, the whole of life. I learnt about everything from her. Every single day I think about her. All through the day.

R. Kelly

I'm not an A student; I'm not even a B student, but I've gotten a lot better with the reading because of texts. And I can voice-text and say whatever I want to people.

R. Kelly

I'm a lover of all sorts of music, which makes me a chameleon when it comes to performing anything, whether it's opera or whatever. As long as it's good and it feels good, I'm going to cling to it.

R. Kelly

I'm the Ali of today. I'm the Marvin Gaye of today. I'm the Bob Marley of today. I'm the Martin Luther King, or all the other greats that have come before us. And a lot of people are starting to realise that now.

R. Kelly

My friend, there is no end when it comes to 'Trapped In The Closet.'
