R. Kelly sure could create an earworm. How else did a man who was repeatedly accused of sexual abuse of minors continue releasing chart-topping music for decades? In today's episode, Tom and Chris talk about what had to happen in order to get R. Kelly where he is today... that is, prison. And of course, what was his defense strategy?
