R. Kelly took the stage at the Bonnaroo Music Festival in Manchester, Tennessee over the weekend, offering up a mix of party jams and soulful ballads. Kellz offered up his headlining set on Saturday night, playing favorites including "Bump N Grind" and "I Believe I Can Fly."
In a constant back and forth with the crowd, Kelly fired up the audience before playing the "I Believe I Can Fly," saying: "If music has inspired you to do better, make some noise."
In addition to his classics, Kelly also rocked a rendition of "Ignition (Remix)" as the opening track, setting the tone for the rest of the night. Kelly was just one of a handful of R&B and Hip-Hop acts to hit the fest this year including a super-jam set featuring Wu-Tang Clan's RZA, DJ Jazzy Jeff, Solange, Schoolboy Q and Chad Hugo of the Neptunes.
