Embattled R. Kelly might take a financial hit as more of his hit songs get pulled from streaming services, but he’s more concerned with filing a fat lawsuit against Lifetime over its docuseries.

Sources connected to the singer told TMZ he’s not flipping out about people like Celine Dion and Ciara yanking their R. Kelly collabs. We’re told his only reaction has been to dismiss those artists as “phonies” who are trying to salvage their own images on the heels of the “Surviving R. Kelly” allegations.

Reports say he is freaking out about what he considers “lies” put forward in ‘Surviving.’

Kelly’s lawyers had reportedly fired off acease and desist letter to Lifetime ahead of the six-part docuseries airing. Of course, Lifetime didn’t blink and Kelly’s now pressuring his attorneys to follow through with the legal threat.

Another report also revealed he had daily meetings with lawyers where they not only discussed the content of ‘Surviving’ but also attempt to dig up dirt on Lifetime execs.

“Kelly seems crazed about getting revenge, and will leave no stone unturned until he gets it”, a source had put it.

So far, though, no lawsuit, while Kelly keeps taking shots.

His label, RCA/Sony, had pulled all financial backings for new projects – and prosecutors in two cities are actively seeking potential witnesses and victims to bring charges against him.

Fair to say, the walls are closing in and Kelly’s not happy about it.
