I'm in love with music, and I'm pregnant by it. It's like having twins. Or triplets. Or eight-lets!

I was the highest-paid street performer, probably, in the history of Chicago. I was making like $800 a day.

I belive I can fly, I believe I can touch the sky.

My music has shaken hands with the world somehow - it's a beautiful disease, and I'm glad I got it.

Once I started singing, I didn't have to try to be cool. I was just one of the coolest guys around.

I've always had mostly women come out to see me perform. That's the reason the guys show up; they know R. Kelly is going to draw the women. Most of the songs I'm singing are catering to women anyway.

Not only did I get an A in music but I got an A in ladies.
