"Trappe in the Closet" is an urban opera or "hip-hopera" released by R&B singer R. Kelly in 2005. The songs relate an ongoing narrative, which Kelly exploited by sending chapters to radio stations one at a time to generate interest. It has no chorus and is told in a conversational manner, using dramatics and cliffhangers between the episodes. The songs tell the story of a one-night stand that sets off a chain of events, which gradually reveals a web of lies and deceit.
