New Video: R. Kelly – ‘Sign of A Victory’

The video for R. Kelly‘s World Cup anthem, ‘Sign of A Victory’, made its debut today. Featuring South Africa’s Soweto Spiritual Singers, the video depicts Kelly’s ambassadorial trip to the African nation ahead of the games.

Peep the video after the jump…

A decent enough clip for what it was. I must say, though, that the song grows on me more and more with each play. That’s why one has to give props where props are due: R. Kelly can hit us with adult-themed songs, yet flip the script and drop inspirational numbers such as this, ‘I Believe I Can Fly’, ‘U Saved Me’, and countless others.

Randomness: Does anyone else find it weird that R. Kelly was riding high on the charts DURING his court case, yet as soon as he was acquitted, folk seemed to lose interest? Things that make you go hmmm….
