#SurvivingRKelly: Universal Publishing has dropped R.Kelly
More troubles for veteran RnB singer, R.Kelly as his brand has received another blow.
Last week Sony records announced they were parting ways with R.Kelly in the wake of the backlash from the ‘Surviving R. Kelly‘ documentary on Lifetime. Universal Publishing has followed suit.
From Billboard
Universal Music Publishing Group has quietly dropped R. Kelly from its songwriter roster, months before his label, Sony Music’s RCA Records, ended its recording contract with him Jan. 18.
“UMPG no longer represents R. Kelly,” a company spokesperson confirmed to Billboard.
The move happened last spring, according to sources.
