"R.Kelly's Bi-Sexual"-Carey Kelly(R.Kelly's Brother)

[roc_com]

A few years back a rumor circulated that R. Kelly planned to claim that it was actually his brother featured on the sex tape that prompted child-pornography charges against the singer. But R. Kelly's younger brother has a tape — and a few claims — of his own.

Carey Kelly has resurfaced in a new low-budget DVD in which he puts forth a number of allegations against his more famous brother. Chief among them, Carey says R. offered him $50,000, a record deal and a house if he would perjure himself on the witness stand. Previously Carey had expressed concern when he heard that his resemblance to his brother might be used as a defense strategy to cast doubt that it was really the singer on the tape (see "R. Kelly's Brother: I Support Him But Won't Take The Fall").

"I got a call about a year and a half ago," Carey says on the DVD, released Tuesday and produced by Drahma Magazine. "My brother wanted me to do some sh-- pertaining to this case that would leave me behind bars with a record deal. It doesn't make sense, so I turned it down. ... Since I couldn't lie for him in a court of law, we're back to beefing again, and we ain't brothers no more."

Carey elaborated on New York radio station Hot 97's Friday morning show, saying R. made the offer while the two were in a hot tub, ostensibly so the singer could be sure his younger brother wasn't wearing a wire. Even though he was alternately living in an abandoned building and sleeping in his car at the time, the offer of money and fame "was not worth it to me," Carey said. "I'd rather get it on my own than sell my soul, so that's why I'm speaking the truth."

Carey also claims that R. abuses his wife (see "R. Kelly, Wife Separate — Petition For Restraining Order Tells Of Alleged Abuse"), tried to molest their other brother's daughter and molested their 12-year-old second cousin. And if those claims weren't enough, Carey also says R. is bisexual ("He in the closet for real," Carey said on Hot 97).

"This is not the first time Carey has made ridiculous accusations against his brother," an R. Kelly spokesperson said. "We're not going to dignify them with a comment."

A source close to the singer said Carey's accusations are "frustrating" because "R. Kelly doesn't want to go after him publicly." But the spokesperson said R. considers Carey to be "troubled guy with lots of problems who's mouthing off."

Carey says all his claims can be proven. But Carey's credibility might be called into question for a number of reasons — most of them self-admitted. One, he just got out of jail for theft. Two, he has a grudge against his brother and says he believes the singer has prevented him from having a successful music career of his own. Even though he contributed to a few tracks on R.'s 1993 record, 12 Play, Carey says he hasn't received any royalties. "I never asked for a handout, but pay me for what I do," he told Hot 97. Carey says he also believes that his brother got him blacklisted by the music industry.

"Why are people feeling sorry for [R.]?" Carey asked. "Saying that the girl's lying and that's why he caught the case? He caught the case because that's God's way of waking him up. What you put out there comes back. It's called karma. But I'm not trying to say anything that's going to put him behind bars. I just wish that people that supposedly love him really reach out to him and say, 'You need help, man.' He's sick and he needs help."

R. Kelly's child-pornography case proceeds in a Chicago court April 7.

Carey Kelly says he's not being disloyal to R. Kelly by alleging that his famous brother asked him to take the fall in his child-pornography case — the way Carey sees it, it's actually the reverse. By suggesting it was him on the sex tape, Carey claims, his brother sold him out first.

"I was blamed for the video, and nobody's saying anything about that because I'm a nobody," Carey said. "No one says, 'Man, why did he say it's his brother?' His attorneys blamed me for the video. That's the only reason I'm speaking out."

Carey Kelly claims he saw R. Kelly's defense attorney on the news saying that it could be Carey on the tape. Attorney Ed Genson has denied making such a statement, and Carey said his brother refuted the statement when he confronted R. about it.

"If I'm seeing it, then the camera's playing tricks on me," Carey said. "Unless this is 'The Twilight Zone.' I can't knock the people who didn't see it, but a lot of people did. And I felt like my brother should have come out and told people, 'My attorney said this, and this is not true.' "

Whether it stemmed from a news report or not, the rumor spread that Kelly's defense team was going to use his brother's resemblance to create reasonable doubt. Then Carey found himself involved in the actual investigation, he said.

"They questioned me, and they followed me," Carey said. "I moved three or four times, but that was dumb, me not thinking they, the police, can find me. It was like I had done something wrong, a crime, urinated on a girl, and they treated me like I had actually done it. It was humiliating, it was frustrating, and it was aggravating."

Carey said the worst part of it was how it affected his six kids, who started getting teased and beat up at school. "My son, he used to love going to school," Carey said. "Now it's a job, since this is all he's going to hear all day. It's not fair for a kid to go through that, especially if I had nothing to do with it."

Still, Carey had hopes his brother would set the record straight, so he said he gave him time to sort things out. And when he got a call from their other brother, Bruce, saying R. wanted to talk to him, Carey thought it was to apologize.

"Bruce said, 'Look, man, he just wants us to be brothers again,' " Carey said. "And there I go, like a fool, I go running. When I get there, I get stripped like I've walked in with a wire. 'Man, if you thought I was wired, why do you have me coming?' And Robert put his head down and laughed because I know him better than he knows himself."

But Carey said he wasn't laughing when his older brother allegedly told him what he wanted: for him to give and sign a statement to his attorneys in front of a camera, saying it was him on the tape to deflect heat from the singer. In exchange, Carey claims Robert offered him $50,000, a record deal, and a house (see "R. Kelly's Brother Accuses Singer Of More Abuses").

"I wasn't willing to sell my soul for a house," said Carey, who was homeless at the time. "I got a house, a car and a record deal, but I'm in jail? It don't add up. He could have offered me $10 million, $20 million, $100 million, and I would never had done it because what am I going to explain to my kids? 'I'm in jail for what someone else did because it's the 'hood and I got to be loyal'? I'm not stupid."

There's no way to corroborate Carey's story — the two were alone, the conversation wasn't recorded, and Carey admits he has a grudge against R. for supposedly thwarting his music career. An aspiring rapper himself, Carey recorded with his brother on "12 Play" and toured with him for six years, but he hasn't met any success on his own. Some have suggested that Carey is coming forward now to further his own career, since he plans to release an album on the Internet as Killa Kel, but he claims that he just wants to set the record straight.

"People say, 'He's doing this for a buck,' " Carey said. "Yeah, everybody needs money to survive, don't get me wrong. But being accused in this videotape destroyed my life. That's why I'm speaking out. Because it started destroying my life, started destroying my kids' lives, when I wasn't doing anything but minding my own business.

"I love my brother," Carey continued. "I'm not trying to put him in a position where he can't sell records or his fans hate him, but if that was another person, the trial would have been over. I don't gain anything by making up a lie, by trying to hurt somebody or bring them down."

In the meantime, prosecutors in Chicago's state attorney's office said they are in the process of trying to speak to Carey and determine the veracity of his claims. For his part, R. Kelly's camp disputes the allegations.

"This is not the first time Carey has made ridiculous accusations against his brother," R. Kelly spokesperson Allan Mayer said. "We're not going to dignify them with a comment."

R. Kelly's child pornography case continues April 7.
