What took so damn long? Today (Feb. 22), R. Kelly was charged with 10 counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse in Cook County, Illinois.

The Chicago-Sun Times confirmed the charges and reports that he is due in court March 8 per paperwork. An arrest warrant for the R&B singer is expected to be issued today.

Recently, two more women came forward in Baltimore to accuse R. Kelly. Also, infamous attorney Michael Avenatti submitted more videotapes (plural) to authorities that allegedly featured R. Kelly sexually assaulting underaged women.

The allegation against R. Kelly were brought to the forefront of pop culture once again thanks to the Surviving R. Kelly docuseries.

Now the question is, will justice be served?
