Kelly's music is sometimes hard to separate from his borderline-absurd real-life misadventures, since his alleged misdeeds inevitably inform his recordings. While most artists are influenced by life unfolding around them, few people's private worlds bleed into their creative work in such a public and chaotic way. Heart-on-sleeve emotion has been a hallmark of Kelly's music, and as scandal has surrounded him, so have heartfelt pleas of forgiveness and repentance.His ambitious 2004 double record, HAPPY PEOPLE/U SAVED ME, can be seen as a reaction to/against all this drama. The titles reflect the music within to perfection, the former containing infectious celebrations of life and love, the latter every inch a traditional gospel/soul record. When freeing himself to party on HAPPY PEOPLE, Kelly lets loose a torrent of catchy, groove-laden love songs, most notably the clever "Love Signals." On U SAVED ME, he gains gravity with a solemn grace that transcends his troubles, making a credible artistic conversion. Editorial Reviews Rolling Stone | |||||||||||||

This is the worst R.kelly album ever. I don't believe he could do any worse. You'd think with a man of his talent this wouldn't be possible. But I tell you when I listened to this I was so mad, I wanted to take it back to the shop and get my money back. It is that bad. I think what makes this album so poor is it's content. I mean R.kelly fans love him for his sexy lyrics and slick beats almost 'dirty' if you will. This album is an attempt at a cleaner, religious R.kelly. I mean if you want this kind of music there is the beautiful Gospel. R.kelly definitely made a mistake with this album. I wonder if he realises it? I can't really recommend any tracks on this album. I believe them to be all not too good. It’s really boring and a complete waste of listening time. Buy at your own will. Review ID: 10000000002336081 Was this review helpful? Report this review Review created: 08/06/06 by: Boring. Boring. Boring. Perhaps this review is boring you. Well, me too. This album is just disappointing. And it's a double album too! Verdict: Imagine doing something boring, then double that boredom - eureka! you now have R Kelly's un-Happy People. I think i am falling aslee.....
