"She's Got That Vibe" is the debut single of American R&B singer-songwriter R. Kelly and Public Announcement from Kelly's debut studio album, Born into the 90's (1992). It was written and produced by Kelly. The song was released as a single on Jive Records in November 1991.^[2]^[3] The song was a top-10 hit on the US Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, peaking at number seven. It also peaked at number three on the UK Singles Chart on re-release in 1994 and number 59 in the Billboard Hot 100. "She Got That Vibe" was later picked on R. Kelly's first compilation album, The R. in R&B Collection, Vol. 1.

Critical reception

Emma Cochrane from Smash Hits gave "She's Got That Vibe" three out of five, noting that Kelly "has wisely dropped the sexist lyrics of his latest release, "Summer Bunnies", and instead gone for a swingbeaty kind of groove. However, it's just all a bit too smooth."^[4]

Music video

The accompanying music video for "She's Got That Vibe" was directed by R. Kelly.^{[citation needed]}
