OVO Sound boss Drake’s pops isn’t biting his tongue. Instead, Dennis Graham is voicing his support for singers R. Kelly and Jussie Smollett amid controversial felony cases.
In a new interview, Graham did not hesitate to say he is 100 percent behind Kells despite getting accused of having sex with minors.
“He’s a good friend of mine. I wish him the best. I hate that it’s happening to him. There’s a reason why women come out after the fact. He has my support 100%.” (Variety)
Dennis also shared sympathy for “Empire” star Jussie Smollett over getting accused of possibly staging his publicized hate crime attack.
“Jussie has been misunderstood. As a matter of fact, they know that. That story that came out about Jussie in Chicago is not true about Jussie. Jussie is a friend of mine, also. They have totally reconstructed his story.” (Variety)
A few days ago, Kells posted his $100,000 bond and soon after hit up a Chicago area McDonald’s.
Kelly’s $100k bond — 10% of his $1 million bail — was finally posted Monday after he appeared in court and entered a not guilty to plea to all 10 counts of aggravated sexual abuse. 5:05 PM PT — R. Kelly made a pit stop after leaving jail, stopping off at McDonald’s for some quick eats. We’re told Kelly ordered a quarter pounder meal with BBQ sauce on the side, washing it down with a soda and some coffee. We’re told Kels got cream and sugar with his coffee, but he went back to the counter and asked for more. (TMZ)

According to reports, Kells’ attorney popped into court on his to plead not guilty to 10 sexual abuse charges.
R. Kelly has pleaded not guilty to 10 counts of aggravated sexual abuse. His attorney Steve Greenberg entered the plea for Kelly in a Chicago courtroom Monday. Greenberg also told the judge that Kelly has turned in his passport — though the 52-year-old hasn’t been able to post bail yet. Kelly, one of the most successful R&B acts of all time, was indicted on 10 counts of aggravated sexual abuse against four victims, prosecutors said. (CNN)

I can confirm that we will be providing a second video showing R. Kelly engaged in sexual assault of a minor to prosecutors this morning. This tape was recently uncovered in connection with our ongoing nationwide investigation on behalf of victims. Justice must be done.
