Trapped in the graph

Jan 28, 2009 16:10

If you read only one sociological analysis - infused with literary commentary and festooned with crisp graphs - of R. Kelly's Trapped in the Closet today, it should be this one.

The graph has a very dense core and two peripheral structures. The structure on the right consists of Pimp Luscious, Bishop Craig, Reverend Mosley James Evan, and the Peace Within Choir. While entertaining in of itself (why is the pimp in church in the first place? and did you notice the blind prostitute?) the scene involving these characters is as peripheral to the story as it is to the network.
