I think R. Kelly's range is so vast and broad that in order to stimulate himself creatively as an artist, he has to step so, so far outside the box, or else he feels like he's not challenging himself.

I can't really see myself as an artist. Now, to step out here and there, do it when I feel like it, that's a possibility. But for me to be a full-fledged, full-time artist in the industry, I don't think so.

People put me on a box, and I love when people think they know what I am capable of or not capable of. I thrive off of that.

Its Better to Destroy the BOX than to Think outside the BOX.

You are like jack still in the box while I am out side the polygon.

Gene Kelly was hard on me, but I think he had to be.
