Last week, during an appearance on Tank and J. Valentineโ€™s โ€œR&B Money Podcast,โ€ Moses was asked to pick the best five R&B songs of all time. One of her selections was Kellyโ€™s โ€œThe Greatest Sex,โ€ from his 2000 album, โ€œTP-2.com.โ€

When describing the song, she says, โ€œYou can close your eyes and see everything heโ€™s saying.โ€

She later describes Kelly as โ€œone of the greatest songwriters to ever live.โ€

Over the weekend, a user on social media caught wind of what Moses said on the podcast episode and had some harsh criticism of the veteran R&B singer, writing in a post on X, โ€œok i did watch #rnbmoneypodcast with @TeedraMoses and i sincerely would like to say f**k her. ummmm. idk how many times we have to REPEAT that Robert Kelly was writing songs about having sex with TEENAGERS & the reason why its so visual is bc its teaching kids how to f**k.

The user later added, โ€œits not like other abusers and people keep telling yโ€™all that and you wanna be edgy or whatever and youโ€™re ignorant. NO OTHER PERSON WAS MAKING SO MUCH ART ABOUT SEX WITH KIDS LIKE WHAT THE F**K IS NOT CLICKING. HIS ART IS ABOUT HIS ABUSE.โ€

On Monday, Moses saw what this person said about her and responded viciously, writing on X, โ€œF**k u u ugly b***h and I ainโ€™t blocking you cuz I got time in the new yr to bless u with these words!!! You donโ€™t know me! But those that do know what Iโ€™m about. Go play with ya support dog b***h donโ€™t play with me! Coming on this app w dat bullshit. I will slap piss from u!!โ€

But her clapback did not end there. In the comments, someone wrote, โ€œOne thing about you old black b*****s is yall gone ride for that nasty predator.โ€

Moses wrote in response, โ€œOne thing about an uninformed person speaking on some shit they have no clue about they will always be dumb!โ€

Although Moses has stopped arguing with fans on X, many have continued to criticize her, questioning why she would praise such a controversial figure.

One person on X wrote, โ€œcrashing out over r. kelly?โ€

Another person added, โ€œShit like this makes me think people are genuinely stupid. Teedraโ€™s sound/music is making a full resurgence over on tiktok rn. Got a whole song going viral. And yet sheโ€™s so committed to letting people know she supports a rapists that sheโ€™s willing to crash landโ€ฆin a tweet.โ€

Meanwhile, Kelly is still sitting in a federal prison, serving his 50-year sentence.
