R. Kelly is currently traveling the country on his "Black Panties Tour", which will hit Jacksonville, Florida this Friday, April 25 on it's next stop. While he has plenty of new music in the works that we are already anticipating, his diehard fans will be able to add another release to their collections this May. 　　RCA will be releasing the official best-of album 'The Essential R. Kelly' under the Jive label on May 19. The 35-song, double-disc set will feature his biggest hits including "Down Low", "Bump & Grind", "Ignition (Remix)", "When A Woman Loves", "I Believe I Can Fly" and many more. Plus, it includes hard-to-find remixes, rare movie soundtrack cuts (several of them out of print), and career-defining collaborations.
