(AllHipHop News) Tonight (December 9th) at 7pm, Hot 97 could turn into a battle ground as Funkmaster Flex is preparing to call out R. Kelly.
Taking to his personal twitter account, Funkmaster Flex derided the veteran R&B singer for refusing to appear on Hot 97 due to the pair’s storied beef over the years:

The problems seem to stem from Funkmaster Flex plublicly voicing his distaste for R. Kelly’s 2008 interview with BET following his acquittal of child pornography accusations. During the interview, Kelly questioned what truly constitutes a “teenager” and stated he had 19 year old “friends”.
