Book SynopsisTrade Review"There really isn’t anyone more qualified to write about the saga of R. Kelly than Jim DeRogatis. Jim has done the work. He’s built the relationships. He’s cared about the outcome for almost two decades” -- Tarana Burke, founder #MeToo
“Jim DeRogatis heroically and doggedly pursued the story of R. Kelly’s predation on young women when the rest of the world simply would not care. For much of his career, Jim has been a music journalist, which means his livelihood depends on the good will and access to musicians and the music industry. All of which he jeopardized by revealing the darkest truths about one of its biggest stars. Give the man a Pulitzer, or something. Praise his name.” -- Peter Sagal
“a brave and important book” -- Booklist
"a stunning account of harm done and dismissed." -- Daily Beast
"Soulless provides new information and insight to readers about the many avenues of sexual assault Kelly has driven down and what can lie ahead in his upcoming trials." -- Vibe
"The writer lays out the case against Kelly in his new book, Soulless. He details not just the accusations of sexual abuse, but Kelly's complex history of out-of-court settlements, the music industry's complicity in his actions, and law enforcement's failure to bring him to justice. -- BBC News Online
"A piercing work of investigative journalism on a celebrity scandal that continues to fester." -- Kirkus
