R. Kelly Prepping House Album

Kellz gets ready to enter the EDM world with new release.

After more than two decades in R&B, R. Kelly is ready to break into the world of EDM. Kellz is prepping a house album, reports Miss Info

"I want ya'll to know a secret: I'm working on a house album right now, and I want ya'll to know its coming,"  Kellz shared with attendees of the Chosen Few DJ's picnic in Chicago earlier in the month. "I love music and feel like I can do anything when it comes to music, because I am music."

Apart from his EDM dreams, Kelly is working on a holiday LP titled 12 Nights of Christmas, and White Panties, the follow-up to Black Panties, released last year. The album however was marred by negative press stemming from Kelly's alleged sexual trysts with underage girls, and failed to spawn any hit singles. As of January 2014, Black Panties sold just over 300,000 copies. 

Kelly was also said to be going on tour with Mary J. Blige. It's not clear when they will be hitting the road together.
