Thread: R..Kelly's music on Glee?

would you be cool with this and if so what era would work best for you and why?

tonight i watched and " i look to you" was a featured song. now i didn't turn the volume up until i heard that familiar RK beat which then i said oh they got a kellz song up in there. good move there?

If they're going to use an R. Kelly song it has to be from the Chocolate Factory or Happy People albums in my opinion; so many 'easy listen' tracks to choose from and they could go well with the show's themes...

"what is glee am i missing something?"

I have heard of the show, but never watched anything for myself. Heard that they had an episode for Madonna and things like that.
Time to find out the format of the show. I'll make a judgement after that. Gonna watch a snippet now.

Please no, lol.

I guess it would be good promotion for the song, but I really hate the show and they've murdered plenty of good songs in the past. And it would be really annoying if the song they performed ended up being more popular than the original

dunno, Glee is funny at times. Dunno how the would do on a song by the R. Then again I always like Kelly's music even if it's sung by others. Just go to Youtube and search for "R. Kelly cover'.

Wouldn't TITC be the ultimate Glee song?

That would be good ideal i love to watch glee

I think it would be cool to have it on Glee. Glee isn't my bag and i've never seen the show but it can get him out to a new audience and have people say....hmmm who sung that song? it was who?? well i don't know much maybe i should buy a CD by them ??

thats what you may get and that would be sweet

Annoying? That would be disastrous! Of course, younger audiences might be given opportunities to be introduced to his original versions, tho. I wouldn't like one bit if their covers get more props than he has gotten so far.

great idea and more listeners

I enjoy 'Glee'. It's an original format and a good way to get young audiences to pay attention to some quality music. I think it would be good promotion for his music.

Co-sign. I don't like the idea that they chose "I Look To You" only because Whitney Houston sang the song.
