R. Kelly sat down with Chicago radio station WGCI where he briefly addressed his child Jaya's transition from female to male, as well as rumors that he lost one of his homes in Chicago due to financial troubles.

When it comes to Jaya (who claims Kelly hasn't spoken to him about his transition since the news went public), Kelly says it's important to believe what we see with our own eyes and not go on rumors that may or may not be true, and to also be aware that there is a backstory we don't know of that should prevent the public from judging his family.

As far as his home, he says he didn't lose it, but gave it up because he's a single man now and simply didn't need that much space for himself.

Here it all from the man himself above.
