Groundwork and composition [edit]

In a 2013 interview with The Boombox, R. Kelly was asked nearly the creative process behind the song: "When I met Michael Jordan on a basketball courtroom at an able-bodied guild — nosotros hooped together in Chicago — he came to me and asked me if I wanted to do a song for his upcoming flick," Kelly said. "I was like, 'Yeah!' I didn't fifty-fifty ask what it was. [Eventually] he let me know what it was, we went to a screening to watch information technology and that's when I ended up coming upwards with 'I Believe I Can Fly'. I knew from the first melody that was gonna exist the song that was gonna take me out of R&B and into another genre of music."[ii]

Critical reception [edit]

A writer for Associated Press described the vocal as "majestic" and "gospel-styled", noting that "hearing R. Kelly's booming vocalisation reach a crescendo while backed upwardly by a choir is a rousing performance that will become many replays".[3] Larry Flick from Billboard wrote that information technology is "highly inspirational" and "embodying the listen-set of the two superstars [Michael Hashemite kingdom of jordan and R. Kelly]". He added, ""If I can dream it, I can reach it." A bang-up motivator for the children who volition flock to the silver screen for Hashemite kingdom of jordan".[4] A reviewer from Chicago Dominicus-Times viewed it as a "warm anthem".[v] Ross Scarano from Complex said, "Like it or not, R. Kelly's "I Believe I Tin can Fly" works considering of R. Kelly. There'southward not another vocaliser alive with the same combination of ability, hostage conviction, and personal demons—demons that Kelly believes he needs the listener's support to fight." He added that the singer "calls on strings and a choir and every bit of forcefulness bachelor in his lungs and vocal chords to rise higher up the broad struggle described in the lyrics."[6]

David Browne from Entertainment Weekly commented that the "become-for-it lyrics and florid orchestration seem to have been written with a future Disney musical in listen."[7] Tom Ewing of Freaky Trigger noted "I Believe I Can Fly"'s "genuine power as a redemption song" and also called it "the most convincing self-assistance vocal".[8] British newspaper Lennox Herald picked it as the "undoubted highlight" of the Space Jam album".[nine] Thessa Mooji from Music & Media described it as a "dramatic ballad".[ten] A reviewer for People Magazine labeled it every bit "schmaltzy merely potent".[xi] Sunday Mirror rated it five out of ten, writing, "'I believe I can soar' sings R. Kelly but I suppose we should be thankful that he's released a proper song for one time instead of those awful rap cover versions which are bottleneck up the charts these days. It's taken from the film Space Jam and if you lot bought Toni Braxton's last single and liked The Bodyguard and so you will buy this for sure. I believe it will fly to the summit of the charts though it makes me sore to say it."[12] James L. Brown from USC Today accounted it a "long slow ballad".[13]
