R. Kelly Music Has Been Dropped By Sony Music

R. Kelly music is officially gone by Sony Music.

Due to the sexual misconduct allegations, it led to the record label into separating ties with the singer.

According to Billboard,"Kelly had been signed to Jive since the beginning of his career in the early 1990s, and when Jive became part of Sony BMG, he became part of the Sony umbrella. He has been under contract at RCA, a Sony subsidiary, since 2012."

Additionally, the influence of the movement Mute R. Kelly and the documentary Surviving R. Kelly has also factored into this decision.
