The series has gathered a lot of attention since its release.

The internet has been talking about the documentary that followed the life of the controversial singer R. Kelly that was released recently.

Surviving R. Kelly takes a deep dive into the life of the legendary R&B singer, and the horrendous crimes that he has been accused of committing throughout his career.

Various women come forward in the series, making allegations that they were sexually abused by Kelly over a number of years.

He has not offered a public response to the documentary, while TMZ have reported that he has not watched it yet, but that he is “disgusted” by the gruesome details unearthed in the docu-series.

TMZ claim that this is why he has refused to watch a single minute of it.

Reportedly, he also believes the documentary is merely a “vendetta” against him, as opposed to a call for justice for those he allegedly tormented.

EGOT winner John Legend featured in the documentary, and was extremely critical of Kelly, describing him as a “serial child rapist”.
