According to several reports, it's been confirmed that R. Kelly and his label, RCA/Sony, have amicably ended their business relationship. Just days ago, it was reported that his record label shelved all pending music from the Pied Piper due to his ongoing criminal investigations. The Chicago native was heavily scrutinized because of the Surviving R. Kelly docu-series, and it seemed new details emerge daily about his disturbing dealings with underage girls, past and present.

After the airing of the docu-series, #MuteRKelly protests increased outside of the Sony offices in New York City, and several of his former collaborators pulled their music off of streaming platforms.
