R. Kelly Wants a Computer in Jail to Finish Album: Report

Steve Greenberg said Kelly has been working on a record album and wants to finish it

R&B star R. Kelly reportedly wants access to his computer while he's in jail so that he can finish his latest album. 

Kelly's attorney told the Chicago Sun-Times the singer "needs to make money and he has been precluded from doing so because of his legal situation." 

Steve Greenberg said Kelly has been working on a record album and wants to finish it. 

A judge ordered Kelly to be transferred from Chicago to New York City for an Aug. 2 hearing on federal sex charges.

Kelly was already facing state sexual abuse charges in Illinois when he was arrested July 11 on federal indictments in Chicago and New York. He is being held in a Chicago jail without bond.

Among other accusations, prosecutors allege that the Grammy-award winner had sex with underage girls, that he filmed himself doing so and that he tried to cover it up.

A former Kelly employee, Milton "June" Brown, pleaded not guilty in Chicago on Friday to a federal charge of conspiracy to receive child pornography.
