In news that will likely not be shocking to many, R. Kelly and his current record label, Sony, have reportedly split during the height of the controversy surrounding the singer. Kelly's partnership with Sony dates back to 2010, and since then he had released 5 albums and a greatest hits compilation, while he reportedly had two albums left on his most recent contract.
Earlier this week, it was reported that RCA and Sony were putting Kelly's new music on hold, though public pressure was likely too much for the label to endure. One demonstration even involved a plane flying over the Sony Music offices in Culver City, equipped with a banner that read "RCA/SONY: DROP SEXUAL PREDATOR R. KELLY."
It should be noted that while neither Kelly or Sony have released an official statement, he has been removed from the official roster list on RCA's website.
