R. Kelly has written a song for charity. “Sign of a Victory” is one of the three original songs selected as the official World Cup Anthem that will benefit African organizations.


Kelly is set to perform his new track at the FIFA World Cup Ceremony on June 11 in Johannesburg Soccer City Stadium. He will be taking the stage with the 27-member African singing group Soweto Spiritual Singers.

He told the press, “Africa has always had a special place in my heart, both musically and emotionally. So it means a lot to me to get to work with the Soweto Spiritual Singers and perform my song at this huge event in Johannesburg.”

The singing group members are as excited as Kelly to perform with him.

They said in a statement to the website, “We share our exhilaration in working with R. Kelly on ‘Sign of a Victory’. It is a testament to the talent and artistry we possess as South African artists that we can stand shoulder to shoulder with our fellow international musicians.”

“Our experience has been overwhelming and we are highly honored to work with R. Kelly.”
