R. Kelly continues to be in the news for disturbing reasons. Following accusations of child abduction by the Savage family last year, the singer is now being accused by a different family of doing the same with their daughter.

Angelo Clary tells TMZ that his 20-year old daughter Azriel Clary is one of Kelly’s sex cult victims. Clary says his daughter was 17 when they took her to meet the R&B singer to discuss her music career. He claims the singer managed to slip Azriel his number when him and his wife weren’t looking, and she moved in with him shortly after.
Angelo believes the real reason the singer is still allowed to roam freely is because America doesn’t care about underage black girls being victimized. He says Kelly would be facing the same faith as Harvey Weinstein or Bill Cosby if his accusers were white.
Angelo says he last spoke to his daughter 8 months ago.
Unfortunately, this is not the first time R. Kelly is facing allegations of this nature. The family of Joycelyn Savage also accused the singer of denying them access to their daughter. The Savage’s say Joycelyn was allowed to go live with the singer after she met him at a concert when she was 19 so he can help further her music career.
The family say they haven’t seen her for over a year, and are worried about her safety. However, Joycelyn who is now 22, in a video obtained by TMZ says she’s happy with her living situation.
“I am happy where I’m at and the people that I’m around.”
She also denied her father’s claims of Stockholm syndrome, and says she hasn’t been brainwashed.
“Oh no, nothing like that. I’ve never felt like a hostage or anything like that.’
‘I’m very heartbroken over what’s going on with this situation because it’s getting to a point where it’s getting too much. It’s just not right.’
Savage’s parents told BuzzFeed in an interview that they believe Kelly had been holding a handful of young women in cult like conditions and effectively treating them as his sexual slaves for years.
Three former members of kellys entourage, Cheryl Mack, Kitti Jones, and Asante McGee – have each come out to speak in detail the sort of treatment endured by young women who find themselves caught in the singer’s web.
“You have to ask for food. You have to ask to go use the bathroom… [Kelly] is a master at mind control… He is a puppet master,” Mack said.
They say there are at least six women living in properties rented by the R&B star in Chicago and Atlanta. The ‘guest houses’ where the women are kept are near his home in suburban Atlanta, and his apartment at Trump Tower in Chicago
R. Kelly’s case is a strange one because, more women are speaking out but somehow, it just feels like nobody’s paying them any attention.

Buzzfeed reported the story of a 16 year old girl Jerhonda Johnson (now Jerhonda Pace) who was abused sexually by Mr. Kelly back in 2008, which was at the height of his child pornography trial. Jerhonda claims she was 16-years old when her and Kelly started having sexual encounters.
“I had to call him ‘daddy,’ and he would call me ‘baby.’ He wanted me to have two pigtails, and I had to go out and find little schoolgirl outfits.”
Jerhonda, now 24 with three children say Kel
ly gave her an undisclosed fee to sign a non-disclosure agreement, but has decided to ignore the agreement because she fears other women are still being abused by the 50-year old.

“If I can speak out and I can help them get out of that situation, that’s what I will do,” she says. “I didn’t have anybody to speak up on my behalf when I was going through what I was going through with him. He’s brainwashed them really bad, and it kind of reminds me of Charles Manson.”
“I just really hope I can help these women out. Kelly needs to be stopped.”
