R. Kelly: Nothing can stop him
Submitted by Erik Gonzalez on June 7, 2007.Kind of a quiet week in Billboard land this week. R. Kelly has returned to the #1 spot with his new album, Double Up. Has an indicted musician ever had as much success as R. Kelly? I mean, honestly, apparently no one cares that R. Kelly likes his ladies young. Ah well.
Anyway, in more pleasant news, TIG fave Amy Winehouse is on the doorstep of the Top 5 for the first time, hitting her peak at #6 - she's also making her way up the singles chart as "Rehab" has crawled up to #48 (I'm sure Brits and Linds love that track). And well, that's about all that's interesting. I mean, I could make some crack of Perry Farrell's Satellite Party only making it in at #91, but that would be mean, but at least today's TIG cover man Elliot Smith is still hanging on with New Moon at #100.

Why do I think you're going to have future opportunities to attend a Amy Winehouse wedding?

She'd love that red number you've got. I can't wait to hear all the crazy details on Ms. W. I can't believe you've been holding back. I love that kind of stuff.
And here all the talk since you've gotten back from France is all about back up singing techniques, French sundries, and indie rock!

Amy W. is not only the cover girl on *Rolling Stone*, but she's also on the cover of *Spin*. From Idolator:

Yikes! When did Spin start looking so crappy? I guess I haven't seen it in a while.
I'm interested in the "Rise of Raunchy Indie Rap" story! I wonder if Yo Majesty's in there.

Like I said, I guess I haven't seen it in a while. Like, since 1990ish.

Go Amy Go!!
Did anyone else see she's the Rolling Stone cover story this week? I read the article on the flight back, and yah... she's a little crazy. But then, I might just be a bit bitter cause she didn't invite me to her wedding.
