R Kelly's estranged daughter speaks out against him, calls him a 'monster' and says she is 'well aware of who and what he is'
R. Kelly's daughter Buku Abi has chosen to speak out and break her silence about the singer-songwriter who has been accused of sexual assault and abuse by several women. Abi whose real name is actually Joann Lee Kelly decided to respond to the allegations made given the release of Lifetime's docu-series, 'Surviving R. Kelly'.
She took to Instagram to share a lengthy post which read, "Buku here. I just want to say a few things. Before I start I just want it to be known that I am speaking from the heart, nothing I say is to hurt ANY party reading or affected by this. To the people that I feel I should be speaking up against everything that is going on right now, I just want you all to understand that devastated is an understatement for all that I feel currently. I do apologize for my silence to all this happening comes off as careless. That is my last intention."
