Kells: Is he a crazy genius or is he just plain crazy? One would think that making a 24-part epic (which more or less uses the same beat on loop) composed of soap opera-esque plot twists would never work . . . but it did. One would think that, during his trial, his nonsensical, desperate defense team strategies were insane . . . until they worked.
Kells is clearly the fredgiest man in R + B. He possesses an air of theater that is absolutely fascinating. See this video, for instance:
Slate has just archived and committed their exemplary coverage of his trial to audio (which was about as fascinating as the man himself). Every day of this trial brought me joy, largely due to the absurd theories/defenses leveraged by the Kelly team. Relive the magic: here.
