R. Kelly is reportedly due back in court in a week to face the charges.
Earlier this year the R&B artist was charged with 10 counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse.
He pleaded not guilty and has been released on bail.
If convicted on the earlier charges which involve four alleged victims, three of whom were minors he could face three to seven years in prison.
