R. Kelly's former lawyer calls him "guilty as hell," made him take "libido-killing shots" and re-wrote "Ignition" to avoid conviction Posted: 08 Mar 2019 11:11 AM PST Kelly's former lawyer, Ed Genson, is retired and basically on his death bed and all out of fucks to give. The Chicago Sun-Times has a really interesting interview with the guy who represented R. Kelly in his 2008 child pornography trial. In addition to calling his former client "guilty as hell," he details some extreme and surprising measures he took to help keep Kelly "out of trouble for 10 years." Here are some choice excerpts: "He was guilty as hell!" Genson said. "I don't think he's done anything inappropriate for years. I'll tell you a secret: I had him go to a doctor to get shots, libido-killing shots. That's why he didn't get arrested for anything else." ​ That's why, Genson said, he knew Kelly was attracted to young girls. Because of lyrics Genson kept Kelly from using. "I was riding in the car, listening to a song and said, 'Are you crazy? This is all I need.' He re-wrote it." Which song? "Ignition," Genson said. "It's a song related to a guy driving around in a car with his girlfriend. It was originally a high school instructor in a class teaching people how to drive a car. I changed the words." Does Ed Genson deserve a song-writing or production credit for "Ignition?" EDIT: Son of Super-Lawyer weighs in: Genson's son, Morton Genson, said Friday that he believed his dad wasn't thinking clearly when he gave the interview at his home in Deerfield, Ill. He said his dad has been "in and out of the hospital" and returned for another stay shortly after the interview a few weeks ago. "He's on a tremendous amount of medication," Morton told the Daily News Friday when asked about the comments. ​ submitted by /u/MattyRaz [link] [comments]
