MAYBE DIS WHERE R KELLY GOT HIS INSPIRATION FROM????? WHO KNOWS??? I STILL KNOCK DIS SONG

[themaxxxman1]

cold classic song from Rick

[pleasure64]

this is the only song, that was a turned off,especially when she was only 17 , How old was he./?????????Disquesting

[countryfunkinbunkin]

@pleasure64 your probably cool with cousin Dupree by steely dan not that it's right by any means,but in a country where sex sells everything and it's dad to boot it happens way to much. Lets stop using sex to sell everything. Can you hear the crickets chirping?  17 with consent is carnal knowledge in most States GOD knows what HE'S doing and HIS ways certainly sure up the nuclear family!!! unfortunately hormones and feelings win when Jesus is not at the helm of your life. Dupree's raunchy

".....But She Was SEXY!!!" :)



[ramirosan145]

[PutterLee]

Not that the topic is new: just check out volume 2 of Proust's "A la Recherche du Temps Perdu" titled "A l'ombre des jeunes filles en fleur" or in English: In the shadow of young girls in flower... the Rick James Marcel Proust connection is hard for some to understand. But its sexy!!!

[PutterLee]

rick james will always be there to discuss controversial issues in a public forum. i think we can all remember a time when we were checking out a girl who we knew was 17 and we thought, come on, man she's only 17! But she's sexy!!!

[dahotness408]

you know r. kelly probably wanted to do a cover, but was like "naw, that's pushin it"

[Shriner66]

Can't wait till they play this on American Idol.

[Loosewire2]

My favourite song about paedophilia :P

[MysteriousButterly]

OH S**T OMg ONLY 17 ...lol

[MJRookieRook]

@MysteriousButterly Ha! I loved this song especially once I was 17 and I thought the same thing lol

[indodesi]

Actually, the age of consent varies by jurisdiction, and in many many places, it is 16. Do you people actually think that 200 years ago, anyone waited till 18 to get busy? Alexander the Great left Greece at 17 to conquer the world. These days, he would have been forced to still in some lame high school "World History" class. Around 18 or 19, Alexander the Great, conquered Egypt, and was worshipped as a Pharoh. I was no virgin during those exploits. We have made adolescence too long.

[krazyboi42]

@indodesi why cant you just enjoy the damn song

[liacashmere58]

@krazyboi42 Well, the song is about messing around with a minor. It's going to rise some eyebrows for some

[pleasuremaster291]

yeah but older women is OK. thats why men all over the world have to come TOGETHER,bond and IRRADICATE EXTERMINATE THESE RELIGIOUS SPONSORED +LAWS!!

[yaziyo]

Love this, no artist would dare to do this today!

[DanielKaine]

COME HERE YOUNG GIRL!!!!!!!!! LMAO

[pleasuremaster291]

this song is for REAL MEN!! not jesus family values SHIT!!

[OQUENDO1968]

I used to Love this Song..Rick James was obviously very talented and popular...but doesnt this song suggest Pedaphilia? Just Sayin'.

[clipsryan]

@OQUENDO1968 Pedophilia is the attraction towards prepubescent children. No real differences happen between 17 and 18. Just sayin' :). Some look 17 and are 20. Some are 20 and look 17. It gets confusing around the late teens but I see what you're saying.

[OQUENDO1968]

@clipsryan It can be confusing. I read an article just recently that lead me to ponder the situation and reason as to why they actually have laws like statutory rape on the books. Sex whith (little) children is definitely disgusting, wrong and should not be allowed. But when it comes to the late teenage years ( 15, 16,17), the real reason they have is law is because of money. Rape implies force, and in statutory rape, there is no force. It's about money. Everything is based contract

[TheSrg225]

@OQUENDO1968 HAHAHA, U SIR R A QUEER!

[OQUENDO1968]

@TheSrg225 So What If I Was...What The Fuck Is it to You?!?!

[liacashmere58]

@OQUENDO1968 I agree with you. Come on how young is 15,16, and 17 really? I met a boy yesturday who could pass for 17 but was 14. He told me older women hit on him all the time

[peopleofdetroit]

@OQUENDO1968 Pedophiles are sexually attracted to pre-pubescent children. A 17-year-old is hardly a pre-pubescent child.

[OQUENDO1968]

@peopleofdetroit I tend to agree with you, especially nowadays. The problem is, it's a slippery slope. As a few have mentioned, between 17-20, there's no real difference. It's all a bout intent and how to make those who do that feel guilty and try to dissuade men from preying on young women. When the roles are reversed, it's not as bad. Of course the media is trying crack down on women sexing up boys. We know in most of those cases, the boys were not victims. Very murky waters in indeed.
