Gary Oldman hilariously dramatizes the autobiography of R. Kelly in this Jimmy Kimmel 'Soulacoaster' skit. Though viral videos such as this one are becoming a commonality on the web, nobody seems to do them as well the Jimmy Kimmel Live Show. The late night host and comedian Jimmy Kimmel seems to be the king of parody, and rightfully so.
In this sketch, renowned English actor Gary Oldman reads out 'Soulacoaster: The Diary of Me' from legendary musician R. Kelly knowns for infamous songs such as 'Bump N’ Grind' and 'Feelin’ On Your Booty.' Oldman is filled with a bone-chilling intensity and, as he proclaims lines such as "just wanted to holler at you" or "you feel me," it is hard not to burst out into laughter. If Oldman were hired to be the narrator on the audiobook, there would no stopping the autobiography from becoming a top seller.
