The jury in the R. Kelly trial found the singer not guilty on all 14 counts of child pornography.
According to the Associated Press, the decision came after just two days of deliberation.
Kelly was originally charged six years ago with appearing on a graphic videotape with a girl alleged to be 13 years-old.
Throughout the course of the trial several family members and friends have testified for both sides; some identifying the alleged victim and Kelly as the participants on the tape and others disagreeing. Both Kelly and the alleged victim deny appearing on the tape and neither testified during the trial.
The jury of nine men and three women began deliberation on Thursday and were sequestered after three hours that evening. Deliberation resumed today.
