Joyner Lucas Sticks Up For R. Kelly & Receives Backlash From Fans

It's been a very intense week for R. Kelly. 

The Surviving R. Kelly Documentary was released which linked him to sleeping with a then 15-year old, Aaliyah. 

Then, his former manager (a guy) came out and said that Kelly offered him up the booty. 

With all the negativity going on, it seems Kelly has some sympathy from fellow artist, Joyner Lucas.

Taking to his twitter, Joyner pleaded with Kelly not to commit suicide. The post is now deleted, but it prompted fans to flip out on Joyner.

After being screamed at, cussed out and called a supporter of a serial rapist, Joyner took down his tweets and explained his stance.  

I took my tweet down because i felt like maybe I should of watched the documentary before commenting. I haven’t seen it yet. All I know is I wake up 1 day and everybody wishing dude go kill himself. Im the same dude who created A suicide awareness video. Imma watch the doc tho.

I gotta be careful with how I word shit now or what I speak on. Things can get taken out of context fast and next thing you know everyone start treating me like they just watched a “surviving Joyner lucas” series. Smh Like god damn. I’m 100% in full support of victims. Chill bro

Do you think Joyner deserves all the backlash?
