US publisher SmileyBooks has announced that R Kelly is writing his autobiography, with writer David Ritz, and that it expects to have the book in stores in 2011.

A statement revealed that, as well as covering all the standard stuff, like growing up, the death of his mother and why he's so great at writing songs, Kelly will also discuss the child sex charges of which he was found innocent last year, six years after the case was originally brought against him. Oh, and he'll be writing it as Robert Kelly, which apparently makes a difference.

Kelly said in a statement: "I'm writing this book as Robert Kelly, not R Kelly. I'm tired of being misunderstood. I will show you the tears, fears, and sweat. I will open my heart and reveal the good in my life as well as all the drama. I want to tell it like it is".

SmileyBooks President Cheryl Woodruff said of the book: "You have the creative passion of R Kelly, revealed in his groundbreaking 'Trapped In The Closet' series, coupled with writer David Ritz, who has collaborated with the musicians Marvin Gaye, Ray Charles, BB King, and Aretha Franklin. It's a great pairing".

I dunno, what does R Kelly really need to say that he hasn't already said in the first single from his new album? www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZo26PzXohU
