Thread: if there was a Kellz Box set what would you want on it?

i was thinking today as I was looking at my box sets over the years that if Jive every Puts out a R.Kelly Box set I was thinking what would be the ultimate dream theme? would be all unreleased tracks? All Live tracks from various time periods,tracks he wrote for others with his own versions or all the un-cut remixes?? now mind you either way it's a multi-Disc set. also when would you want it??

cuz I don't see this box set coming out any time soon. Until then, I can at least be happy having an imagining party The threadstarter already said many things that I have in my mind. My dream theme is all about abundant, rare, new materials.

I'd go with "When he's older~". Could've chosen "In 5~10 years" at first, but then again I kinda thought about can't-get-more-ultimate-than-this type of box set.

I'd love all best live tracks. As long as it's live and sounds nice, wherever, whenever, and whatever~it was performed. From his own live shows, interviews(like the clip of "I Look To You"), shooting sets of music videos, his studio(kinda brief singing, not full singing while working on tracks-He might record those as a source for developing melodies and whatnot later), AND if a MTV Unplugged type of live cd is released before the box set, some tracks that stand out or are performed but unreleased also could be there.

And.....his version of songs he gave to others. "Fortunate", "Life", "You Are Not Alone", "I Don't Want To", "Street Thing", just to name a very few of all.

How about new versions of songs that have been released? His remixes go almost there enough to be new versions of the originals, but it'd be refreshing to have newly arranged versions. For example, Jazzy interpretation.

ive gone with when he's older so i can look back and reminise, i would probably have every thing on it but would still buy it anyways because i have got a good collection of his things!

I'd say a box set out when he hits 20 years in the game, it would make sense......how many people can say 20 years and who are still at the top?

Helena a whole disc of him doing his own songs for others would be awesome!!!

I said when he's older

At the rate he's going now, I would say 5-10 years.

Co-sign.

i would say 10-15 years.

around 2020-2025. I think by then he will be at the perfect age for a box-set and a tour. god willing.

within these 15 years hopefully he has time for Musical Virus an R-and-B record, something special like conducting a Broadway play or a theatre version of Trapped in the Closet.......all these things.

i would say anyday now!! i want THE MV PROJECT all 5-7 discs in a wonderful looking package with a bunch of unreleased stuff from the vault!!!
