R. KELLY TO PAY OVER $500,000 IN SONGWRITING ROYALTIES TO HIS VICTIMS
R&B singer R. Kelly has reportedly been ordered to hand over more than $500,000 in royalties to the courts. According to a report from HipHopDX, Kelly will be required to disburse the money to his victims.
The hip-hop outlet reportedly obtained documents indicating that the United States Court in the Northern District of Illinois issued a third-party citation to Universal Music Group back in May in order to discover assets. The terms of the citation indicated that Universal Music Group would have to disclose how much money in outstanding royalties Kelly still needed to be paid for songwriting.
It is reported that these royalties will be used to pay the singer’s victims, who have allegedly received about $27,000.
