April 23 2011 - R Kelly concluded his short visit to the UK with a sold out gig at Manchester’s Apollo on Saturday.

The US singer, who played London on Friday (April 22), delighted fans with a hit-laden set featuring the songs 'I Believe I Can Fly' and 'Bump N' Grind', and also saw him smoke a cigar on stage.

The intimate gigs were in support R Kelly’s eleventh and most recent studio album ‘Love Letter’, and were his first in the UK in nine years.
