According to TMZ, the music icon decided to pull the song down from streaming services following R.Kelly's present sexual assault allegations and the now famous #SurvivingRKelly documentary.

'I'm Your Angel' was one of the biggest songs in the 1990s as it reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and stayed there for 6 weeks. It went certified platinum and sold more than 1.5 million copies. It was also nominated for a Grammy.
