     *A round of songs leaked from R. Kelly's upcoming "12 Play 4th Quarter" album are making headlines for their steamy content despite having just been acquitted of child pornography charges.     

      Both MTV and Billboard mentioned the amount of sexual content in the leaked material – which includes the tracks "Screamer," "At the Same Time," "Two Seater" and "Son of a B*tch."

       The album's first official single, "Hair Braider," peaked only at No. 56 on Billboard's Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart this spring, in the midst of Kelly's trial. The second single appears to be the confirmed album track "Skin," which has a music video that will be shot this weekend, according to Billboard.com.

      The vocoder-laced "Screamer" uses a beat reminiscent of Prince's "The Beautiful Ones" as Kelly sings about trying to keep a lady friend quiet while having sex with her in a crowded house.

      On "Two Seater," Kelly raps over a chopped-and-screwed chorus while boasting about his car and financial status. "At the Same Time" finds Kelly detailing sexual encounters over guitar plucks and a double bass drum. "Son of a Bitch" has Kelly using a conversational tone over rolling piano notes to describe yet another sexual encounter.

       Other leaked tracks include "Might Be Mine" the retelling of a "true story" about a stripper whose lawyer called him one day to say the woman was pregnant with his child.
