In this episode of 1001 Songs That Make You Want To Die, the boys take flight—literally and metaphorically—as they dive headfirst into R. Kelly’s delusional gospel-ballad-turned-Olympic-theme, “I Believe I Can Fly.”

From Space Jam nostalgia to the harsh reality of sex crimes, Chibbs, Bevo, and Dan Southern unravel the bizarre lyrics, ridiculous metaphors, and the twisted irony of a convicted criminal writing about purity, freedom, and everlasting arms.

Expect chaotic tangents about flapping mechanics, bird burglaries, and which Matrix movie Neo actually flies in—all while trying to separate one of the world’s most infamous “sex perpetrators” from one of the most overplayed anthems of the ’90s.

It’s one part pop-culture therapy session, one part roast, and entirely unhinged.

🔥 Highlights:

• The Matrix flying debate no one asked for
• NASA deleting R. Kelly from training videos
• “I Believe I Can Die” – the remix nobody wanted
• Space Jam, Sylvester the Cat, and the horny rabbit problem
• R. Kelly’s rise, fall, and long-awaited prison tour

⚖️ Featuring:

Chibbs, Bevo, and Dan Southern
