Unfortunately for Kells, this arrived just a few days after his former landlord in Chicago alleged that he owes $3.4M in back rent for the studio space he was renting out. Kelly’s been facing a tremendous amount of trouble over the past year over this studio. In early 2019, he was hit with heavy fines after it was revealed that the space was being used for more than just recording. 

Despite the fact that things have been going south for him for a minute, his lawyer reportedly got him a bail hearing which is set for March 5th. Kelly’s lawyer argued that the singer never missed a court date in relation to his previous child pornography case. His lawyer also said that they would make sure that Kelly’s use of the internet and social media was limited and that he wear a monitoring device.
