that seems to be responding to a buzzfeed piece which completely bungles the story by claiming r kelly was "credited as a co-lyricist" which is obviously wrong
but it doesn't actually address the point of "it's a bad look to sample r kelly, especially because it means he gets a credit". like ok, even if they didn't actually care about the bit from the r kelly track & just wanted to use a sample of ron c talking that just happened to have the intro from the r kelly track in the background, if they do agree he's that bad then maybe they should have just left it off completely. the orchestral bit from the r kelly track behind ron c talking isn't "faint" either
