One of R. Kelly’s right hand men Demetrius Smith Sr., is releasing a tell-all book about being friends with R. Kelly and his relationship with deceased R&B singer Aaliyah.

The tell-all book entitled “The Man Behind The Man,” claims that R. Kelly got then 15-year-old Aaliyah pregnant before their controversial engagement!

Aaliyah and R. Kelly made waves when the 15-year-old R&B singer was reportedly in a relationship with a 27-year-old R. Kelly in 1994. Eventually, Aaliyah’s parents broke the relationship up and Aaliyah went on to sell millions of records as a teenager. 

This was the very beginning of R. Kelly’s long history of child pornography allegations and inappropriate relationships with teenagers. 

All GlobalGrind has to say is R.I.P Aaliyah! We miss you and your beautiful voice!
