R&B singer R. Kelly is having a tough month. A week after getting called out by hip-hop artist Vince Staples, multiple affiliates from his publicist to lawyer have left him.

According to reports, the departures follow the BBC Three documentary R Kelly: Sex, Girls And Videotapes where serious sexual accusations are made against the crooner.

Fresh allegations have also arisen against the singer, claiming he “knowingly and intentionally infected” a 19-year-old woman with an STD. The BBC Three documentary detailed sexual allegations surrounding the R’n’B singer. Since it aired, R Kelly’s executive assistant of over 10 years, Diana Copeland, has resigned, and it has been confirmed that Linda Mensch, R Kelly’s entertainment attorney of four years, has also quit.

As of this weekend, Kelly has lost key members from his crew including his publicist, attorney and assistant.

Several members of R. Kelly’s inner circle have cut ties with the singer, it was revealed today. His spokesperson, Trevian Kutti, confirmed to Pitchfork that she no longer works with Kelly as of April 16. Additionally, BBC3 reports reports that both Kelly’s entertainment attorney, Linda Mensch, and his assistant, Diana Copeland, are no longer working with him.

A few days ago, Vince Staples joked about catching heat from Kelly after calling him out in an interview.

Staples’ tweets come after blasting Kells in an interview and calling him a child molester.

“You don’t go to prison if you’re a black entertainer. Only if you’re a black gangster rapper. I’m changing my whole path. Think about it. R. Kelly never went to jail, and he’s a fucking child molester. He’s a child molester and he pees on people and he can’t read and write, and he didn’t go to jail. I’m a good person—R. Kelly’s a piece of fucking sh*t. So if piece of f*cking sh*t R. Kelly didn’t go to jail for being a child molester and peeing on people and having a human trafficking ring in Atlanta, then I’ll be all right.” (Complex)

Recently, a woman accused R. Kelly of giving her a sexually transmitted disease.

A woman who claims R. Kelly tried to groom her for his “sex cult” has reportedly filed a complaint against the singer, accusing him of infecting her with a sexually transmitted disease while he was in town for a concert in December. The unidentified woman, who was just 19 when she started dating the “Ignition” singer last June, filed last week with the Dallas Police Department and is preparing a federal civil complaint, according to documents acquired by the Daily News.
