Trapped in the Closet is a
rap opera by American
R&B singer
R. Kelly, which currently consists of 33 "chapters" released from 2005 to 2012. Written and produced by Kelly, the series tells a story of a
one-night stand which sets off a chain of events, gradually revealing a greater web of lies, sex, and deceit. The music follows a distinct
E major pattern, and most chapters of the story feature the same melodic theme.
