Jailed R.Kelly Offers Tyrese Condolences After Mother’s death

Tyrese took to social media late Friday night to thank jailed R&B crooner R.Kelly for his condolences after losing his mother, Priscilla Murray Gibson, who died last month following her battle with COVID-19 and pneumonia.

“Yup….. just broke down in my trailer took me 45 mins to recover love you Kellz,” the “Fast & Furious” star, 43, captioned a screenshot of a text he shared relaying the message from Kelly, 55.

“damn he is on the inside and still took time to get Condolences out to me and my family…Love you Kellz……. No comments needed,” Tyrese Gibson added, as he turned off the comment section on that particular post.

“Selfishly I wish they could sneak a protocols rig and a mic in your jail cell so that you can unload all of those ideas cause I know you don’t write all of your hits have been freestyled off the top…… But that’s just me,” he went on before calling his “Pregnant” collaborator the “R&B King!

In the accompanying screenshot, the “Ignition” singer allegedly told the Watts, Calif. native, “Hey lil bro, my condolences to you about your mom. She is in a better place with my mom, and they both smiling down on us..I pray for you and keep it going. One Love.”

He added, “I know it a lot having to deal with this is the limelight, but keep ya head up.”

Robert Kelly was found guilty September 2021 on nine different counts, including racketeering and various sex crimes against “women, boys and girls for decades.”

“To the victims in this case, your voices were heard, and justice was finally served,” acting US Attorney Jacquelyn Kasulis said outside of court following the verdict. “No one deserves what they experienced at his hands. Or the threats and harassment they faced.”

The singer is currently jailed at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center, where he recently contracted COVID-19 as he prepares for his appeal.
