saying you had the fans to just get it because of the support and love that's exclusively for them so that's why i made the album exclusively for the people who want the album so what's going to be like you know what's the theme of because you know i see a lot of albums now they go from my story telling people all my stuff is going on their life i mean what's your angle at this time man because you know you could have went way left and you kind of stick on the same thing telling people give a little clue of what's gonna happen okay like i'm i'm in the middle like like i i think i'm my style is is not changed but it's just my like my growth as an artist that changed like me having fun on the record me writing about true stories i'm saying writing about creative ideas and dancing and

smash hits with pawn d replay and run it around the same time from there their paths continued to cross they both had a lot of chemistry together and were seen together all the time in fact paparazzi were so crazy over them that they couldn't even get something to eat without being ambushed by them i mean that does come with fame though but yeah just saying 2008 was another huge success for breezy as he would be featured on a bunch of songs [Music] like me [Music] damn near every music video it seemed like and he also re-released his exclusive album and called it the forever edition because of

like that oh our next guest is a pop superstar who just also happens to be one of my favorite dancers in the world please welcome the incredible chris brown chris brown at this point in his career was an absolute superstar beyond measures he was loved by everybody from the personality to the music to the performances on stage he could do no wrong that was until everything would come crashing down on him though in the beginning of 2009 and we begin at 10 with breaking news a grammy award nominee has just posted bail on criminal threat charges chris brown is accused of assault and battery neither he nor his girlfriend singer rihanna showed up at tonight's awards show kcal 9's sariah fidel live now at the mid wilshire lapd station with the breaking details soraya and juan just a few hours ago we saw chris brown drive off with his attorneys out here minutes after he posted bell according to sources the alleged fight broke out inside a lamborghini that was located at hancock park after two and a half hours in police custody 19 year old r b artist chris brown bailed out and drove off with his attorneys in this black escalade he reportedly canceled his grammy award performance and went to the lapd wilshire division to turn himself in the exact charge was criminal threats and it's going to be investigated as a criminal threats investigation there may be domestic violence charges added later but that will be up to the district attorney's office sources tell kcal9 and cbs2 brown's girlfriend 20 year old pop star rihanna is the woman involved in the alleged domestic violence assault case according to sources 9-1-1 calls reported a woman screaming in this hancock neighborhood shortly after midnight sources say brown fled the scene on foot and police found facial contusions and bite marks on the victim's arm it was booked and released on a thousand dollar bond chris brown and rihanna were last seen at the clive davis pre-grammy party saturday night they performed and left together nearly 24 hours later both were a no-show for the 51st grammy awards where they were scheduled to perform and up for multiple awards anything that i heard you know i don't want to speak too much on it but i was completely devastated by the concept of what i heard so i mean you knew i had to talk about it some would say that if this incident had never occurred chris brown's career status in the game today would be way different i've heard people say he'd be way more famous and just overall bigger on a global scale than he is today some say he'd be like a justin bieber or bigger than drake is today etc etc he's obviously already a star and famous today but how much bigger would he have been if everywhere you go people didn't always bring this up this is always that dark cloud that's always lingering above chris's name for the rest of his life really [ __ ] every time i bring up his name there's like no in between it's either you forgave him and you still love him or you just bring up rihanna or woman beater or you express how much hate you have for that man like i said there's no in between i'm probably gonna get a bunch of comments on this video just about this situation alone or nothing but hate comments but either way people have a strong connection and passion when it comes to chris's story look obviously what he did was terrible and i would never justify putting your hands on a woman which he admits a bunch of times is wrong and regrets everything but personally i think everyone deserves a second chance in life and even rihanna forgives him and will always love chris they've made amends and it's over with but people to this day still bring it up and it's a shame for chris brown's sake because that just goes right back to what i was just talking about where would his career be at right now if that didn't happen he even said in his 2017 documentary and i quote i went from being on top of the world number one songs being kind of like america's sweetheart to being public enemy number one i felt like an effing monster hi i'm chris brown since february my attorney has advised me not to speak out even though ever since the incident i wanted to publicly express my deepest regret and accept full responsibility although i would do some interviews and answer some questions in the future i thought it was time that you heard directly from me that i am sorry i have tried to live my life in a way which can make those around me proud of me and until recently i think i was doing a pretty good job i wish i had the chance to live those few moments again but unfortunately i can't i cannot go into what happened and most importantly i'm not gonna sit here and make any excuses i take great pride in me being able to exercise self-control and what i did was inexcusable i am very sad and very ashamed of what i've done my mother and my spiritual teachers have taught me way better than that i have told rihanna countless times that i'm telling you today that i'm truly truly sorry and that i wasn't able to handle the situation both differently and better i recognize that i've truly been blessed i've been blessed with a wonderful family wonderful friends and fans god has been generous in giving me the ability which has brought me fame and fortune i've done a lot of soul searching and over the past several months i've talked with my minister and my mother and i spent a lot of time trying to understand what happened and why i have let a lot of people down and i realized that and no one is more disappointed in me than i am as many of you know i grew up in a home where there was domestic violence and i saw firsthand what uncontrolled rage could do i have sought and i'm continuing to seek help to ensure that what occurred in february can never happen again and as i sit here today i can tell you that i would do everything in my power to make sure that it never happens again and i promise that what i did was unacceptable 100 i can only ask and pray that you forgive me please i hope that others learn from my mistake i intend to live my life so that i am truly worthy of the term role model thank you chris stayed relatively quiet for most of the year that was until he would go on to drop his lead single i can transform you in september for his next studio album graffiti which is a very underrated album by the way he followed that up with his next single crawl releasing on my birthday actually on november 23rd both singles were decently successful and the album would finally release on december 8th 2009 to not so good reviews it was mostly [ __ ] on by critics really it debuted at number 7 and sold 102 000 copies first week in fact chris brown himself was actually upset at the way it was distributed tweeting they didn't even have my album in the back not on shelves so for myself i'm tired of this [ __ ] major stores are blackballing my cd not stocking the shelves and lying to customers what the f do i gotta do i'm not biting my tongue about [ __ ] else the industry can kiss my ass despite all that though the album has some really good gems man like what i do [Music] chase our love which is one of my favorite chris brown songs ever [Music] so cold [Music] the title track graffiti sing like me [Music] yeah this album is pretty solid joelle santana would actually get chris brown on his song back to the crib in the end of this year [ __ ] is a banger for real [Music] interestingly enough though def jam's president la reid wanted trey songz to do the song instead of chris brown because of the whole incident but jewels was like nah bruh i want chris now it's 2010 and this was the start of a new chris brown saga and kind of a reboot of sorts and in my opinion some of the best music from breezy came from this time period at this point though after graffiti didn't perform well chris would fall into a deep depression from his friends and family to his fans turning on him he took some time to reflect on his life and contemplate if he still even wanted to make music anymore and this is where he would become really close friends with tiger and in my honest opinion this may be a hot take but bruh tiger really rejuvenated chris brown's career and gave him that fight that dog and he lit that flame that was under him and that confidence really started to show after being around him chris would kind of start leaning more into the hip-hop aspect of things during this time too and started building his fan base from the ground up this was the era where the snapbacks and tattoos really started being a trend and tyga's swag was all about that chris brown's audience grew from mostly females to a mixture of dudes rocking with him now tyga even talked about this time in an interview yeah chris is like you know he just like me though we we think i like you know what i'm saying just and at the end of the day yeah i think like chris went through a point to where like you know to the point to where he didn't even want to do music anymore you know what i'm saying because people was bashing them so much you know i'm saying like in the situation you went through and i didn't judge them you know what i'm saying like i still looked at him like yo you chris brown you you mike jack you know i'm saying you gotta you gotta make music you know what i'm saying but he he wasn't like really motivated to do that i flew out to virginia i stayed at his crib for like two months and we recorded a whole mixtape that's when we recorded deuces all that you know i'm saying so like i was with him at that point to where like people wasn't like really [ __ ] with him like that you know what i mean but i was just like who cares what people think you you got the gift like a lot of us in this generation a lot of people that never gonna have before he would drop that fan of a fan mixtape he would drop his first ever mixtape called in my zone and it was pretty fire it was something for the fans for real and i loved it with bangers like twitter [Music] please excuse me too freaky i got that long money so was my dude change my [Music] he would then go on to release fan of a fan on may 16th is [Music] [Music] [Applause] and it really put chris brown back on the map as well as making tiger a force to be reckoned with too i'm so raw turn the oven on chef papa john i get the parmesan i was actually a huge tiger fan around this time bruh the well done mixtapes [ __ ] i'm the [ __ ] you could ask anyone that knows me bro i had the last king snapbacks going crazy but anyways at the bet awards this year in june chris brown would dedicate his performance to michael jackson who had passed away a year prior and chris brown put on one of his best performances man honestly to find this footage yo i had to go through hell and back to find this [ __ ] fam i can't really show all of it though cause copyright but breezy started crying like crazy when he started performing the song man in the mirror as it was so fitting for him at the time going through what he went through for a whole year and losing one of his idols i'm sure it was a lot for him [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] this wind is [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [ __ ] [Applause] i'm totally down because it's going to be amazing um people are going to be talking about this for a while and i think uh the basis of everything it was just something different that i think all of us kind of learned something from in the summer of this year he would be featured in another film takers where his performance is really good for real now chris the question that all of america wants to know did you do your own stunts yes yeah you did yeah how do you like prepare for that i mean i know it's like all type of exercises and stuff how do you prepare he doesn't yeah i didn't i didn't really exercise like they did they used to be like how did you don't stretch like you didn't stretch that stretching i was like no i just kind of just already do it [Applause] [Music] later on that year in november he would go on to release another mixtape in my zone part two with some pretty lazy cover art i'm not gonna lie bruh but it has some pretty dope tracks [Music] [Music] and later on this year he would go on to announce his next studio album fame which in my opinion saved chris brown's career [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] our special guest is an eight-time grammy nominee whose latest album fame boasts three consecutive number one hits the album fame which was chris brown's last album with jive records was released on march 18 2011 and debuted at number one selling 270 000 copies first week it was his first number one album and went on to go double platinum at least the critics are kind of hating though some of these reviews are bugging a 52 out of 100 from metacritic what are you smoking bro this is probably chris brown's best album in my opinion and i remember when this came out damn near every one of these songs were on the radio bro it was everywhere every party every car that was driving by was bumping these songs but anyways he also ended up putting deuces and no [ __ ] on it from how successful those songs were the album won five awards at the 2011 bet awards and would eventually go on to win three grammys including winning best r b album which was actually chris brown's first ever grammy and it also won best r b album at the billboard awards 2011 was arguably chris brown's biggest year and definitely a comeback for sure yo y'all remember the cat daddy i mostly remember the music video for chris brown being in it [Applause] [Applause] [Music] [Music] and the features he was doing this year was bodying everybody's songs [Music] wow [Music] in promotion for the album fame he was on good morning america where he was apparently blindsided by the questions he was being asked and you could visibly tell he was a bit frustrated about it what's going on now is that recently the restraining order against you that rihanna had had issued has been relaxed have you all have you all seen each other been around each other i mean not really i mean it's not really a big deal to me now as far as that situation i think i'm past that in my life and i think today is the album day so that's what i'm focused on so everybody go get that out yeah but you can understand how some people you know what that was very serious what you what you went through and what happened and what uh and uh even the judge though afterwards said that you had served your time as far as the community service and that and moving on but have you been able to how have you been able to focus on his album you know i think this this album is what you know i want people to hear and want people to really get into so definitely this album is what i want them to talk about and not the stuff that happened two years ago i understand that i understand that he still went on to do his performance but after this would happen chris brown's gma appearance tuesday the singer stormed backstage in a rage a cooler was thrown and this window was broken wednesday on b-e-t's 106 and park video countdown brown expressed his frustration over being asked a question about his past in the gma interview i was thrown off by it you know i felt like it was like okay they told us this just that they can get us on the show to exploit me you know that's what i thought you know and so i took it very very hard although you can see me upset you know i kept my composure did my performance and when i got back i just let off like steam in the back you know i didn't didn't physically hurt anyone i didn't i didn't try to hurt anyone i just wanted to release just the anger that i had inside me because i felt like i worked so hard for this music and i love my fans and i love to be able to make positive music that i felt like people kept just trying to take it away from me take it away from me so yes i got very emotional and i apologize for acting like that he also dropped a pretty dope mixtape in august of this year boy in detention [Music] i bought the snap back back last kings and them this year they sound like crap [Music] it's definitely a special year for me as i graduated high school this year and chris brown just kept his foot on the gas with a bunch of fire features [Applause] [Music] been a long time [Music] now this whole thing with drake and chris brown that happened at a nightclub in new york nobody truly knows what happened unless you were there or he said she said was it over rihanna who knows bro i look up and i see like people in the middle i'm like all right it's not going to go down because you know i'm saying that's just probably people talking i think i caught a bottle coming by like going this way and then a whole bunch of bottles coming back to this way and then just mad commotion whoever was in the middle was pretty much getting beat up that's when a big brawl broke out like i guess the body chris brown bodyguard i guess that's who that was that was getting beat up and drake was drunk everybody was drunk liquor and too much liquor and a celebrity plus somebody that they don't like is not a good thing but i'll tell you one thing there was definitely some bad blood between the two chris brown right and drake the club that the drummer that went down in the club bottles being thrown so on and so forth dude do these cats really need to touch each other you know what i'm saying then the twitter gang banging and you know yeah yeah i think it's crazy i mean regardless if it's actually over the girl or just disrespectful right they need to you know they could cool that down right you know i'm saying like before you know it turns into something else and they're gonna see what it ends up because it's gonna end up lawsuits flying and all kind of yeah man trust me i don't get involved me and him don't see out of high so it's going to be you and drake are you in the lawyer not me and drake you know i don't really try to talk about him when i'm right oh yeah i just laid the pipe for the media and like for any media outlet that listens to this interview like don't ask me [ __ ] about that man when i come up there you know what i mean like and leave that man alone you know stop praying on his insecurities man because you know his insecurities are the fact that i make better music than him that i'm more popping than him and that at one point in life you know i'm saying the woman that he loves fell into my lap i did what a real [ __ ] would do and treated her with respect so she doesn't she's not up there talking down on me you know i'm saying and all those things combined you know create an individual that comes up to your radio station and and is just gonna you know do dumb [ __ ] but it's like it shouldn't be about tearing that man down it shouldn't be about wanting to see me and him tear each other down like we have an issue and it's either gonna drag out or or maybe in 10 years we'll laugh about it over drinks but just let us solve that [ __ ] because it's not me and kendrick it's not me and hoes that's not common it's not even you and comments you're not going to get anything out of it like no but i don't want to hear that man rap you know i'm saying nobody wants to hear me rap against him i'm you know like i really do this [ __ ] like that's not you're not even gonna get anything out of it so i just like i just urge people man to just you know like and when i say people i mean like media like just leave that [ __ ] alone man just leave him alone man let it let him put out that whatever project x or whatever that [ __ ] he's working on and i'ma just do you know i'ma put out this real [ __ ] for the people like and that's it i mean damn [ __ ] all right he will go on to drop his next studio album fortune and it was pretty successful debuting at number one and sold 135 000 copies first week and it had a bunch of singles like turn up the music don't wake me up [Music] even strip was on here and some other really underrated songs are on here too [Music] don't judge me bruh that song and the music video puts a tear to my eye i am not gonna lie don't judge me and his performance at the 2012 billboard awards was fire activate fun zone [Applause] us down [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] and towards the end of this year he would go on a six-week overseas tour now we're in 2013 and around this time chris brown was already dating karuchi on and off since 2011 but also was giving rihanna another chance too as you can see them here together after the grammys in fact he said he was in love with both women at the same time he talked about it in his sway interview in april of this year i was in love with two females right so you know during that process their feelings toward that you know like women are emotional men are emotional and i can't you know be selfish and think that they would have a okay feeling towards it you know but but i just had to be honest and if they accepted it they accepted it if not that's just my consequences because

pills and automobiles and questions [Music] in october he would drop the last single leading up to the project high end which is such a banger man all the vampires know that we don't go to sleep all night i mean the album heartbreak on a full moon was finally released as a double disc on halloween of this year yeah there were a lot of songs like 45 but overall i enjoyed it a lot there's a lot of hidden gems on here as the album has a very cohesive dark and soulful tone to it [Music] [Music] in fact it was really highly praised by critics usually they'd be hating like crazy on breezy but not this time around despite being counted for only three days of digital and streaming sales because of its release in the middle of the week heartbreak on a full moon debuted at number three and sold 220 000 copies within those three days alone and if 45 songs wasn't enough that boy blessed us with a deluxe like a week before christmas [Music] in the beginning of 2018 chris brown and joyner lucas out of our people announced a collaboration project titled angels and demons on february 25th with the release of the single stranger things they don't make a difference [ __ ] we win it i'm plenty grinning hundred million platinum [ __ ] you ain't gotta listen to me but the project was never released in march though he would be featured on a smash hit by lil dicky called freaky friday man when this came out it was such a breath of fresh air and different to what we usually get in music videos the acting by breezy was phenomenal too [Music] it was just great and for the majority of 2018 chris brown will go on his heartbreak on a full moon tour who wait if you had to label one king of r b today who would it be for our generation yeah chris brown yeah yeah it's hard to argue that yeah yeah yeah if on january of 2019 chris brown would release his single undecided in lead up to his ninth studio album [Music] the single was chris brown's first release after signing an extension and a new license agreement with rca records that gave him the owning of all his master recordings making him one of the youngest artists to do so at the age of 29 he would go on to release a few more singles for the album with back to love actually being the most underrated out of the bunch [Music] trips that you planned for the next whole week and no guidance being an absolute classic as soon as it dropped i think that's one of the best r b tracks of the last decade and it was cool to see breezy and drake squash whatever beef they had the album indigo would finally release on june 28 2019 with a deluxe that followed a few months after he just loves to bless us huh debuting at number one selling 108 000 copies first week making it his third number one album since fortune back in 2012 the album was certified platinum in the same year was released [Music] and you already know he went on tour for that album he called it the indigo tour pretty dope and chris was ranked number three on the billboard top r b and hip hop artist of the decade ironically behind rihanna and drake we all know how 2020 went down it was the craziest year i've ever experienced in my life riots pandemic lockdown no concerts [ __ ] was chaotic but in the midst of all the craziness chris brown hit us with a collab tape with young thug i was super surprised when i saw this actually came out the artwork is fine though but i was like hmm how is this gonna sound turns out we ended up getting a smash hit out of it and this song was all over the radio and social media like crazy with a little dance challenge that was going viral too hey chris chris come on bro come on bro you got to go crazy one time bring it back bring it back let's go let's go [Music] come on now [Music] huh come do the go crazy challenge no come on you have to do it come back come back yeah make a bag the song is a timeless hit with some other dope tracks on it too [Music] baby [Music] he was also featured on drake's dark lane demo tapes on an underrated track called not you be two your mind in july of this year he would announce that his next studio album will be titled breezy but we wouldn't get it until two years later in 2021 though he was killing it out here with the features as usual [Music] [ __ ] it up i need you to bring it up [Music] and he ended up remixing go crazy this year too futures versto [Music] gasps one feature that didn't end up making an album was on donder chris brown is still credited on the song new again but yay ended up taking chris brown's verse off of it and i'm tight cause chris brown's verse was fire i'm assuming it's because of these two bars that chris says and i quote next thing i know we in a group text now we having group sex damn i love this [ __ ] i mean i guess i get it it may not fit the whole gospel concept i'm assuming he didn't know but chris brown went on instagram that same night and said kanye a whole ho he ended up doing a set at rolling lao california in december it was originally supposed to be a slime and b duo performance with young thug but it ended up just being crisp i don't know why but hey either way i was there bruh and personally it was legendary man to see that in person amazing [Applause] friday [Applause] [Music] [Music] thank y'all in 2022 chris brown was gearing up for his next album breezy so he released his first single in january titled iffy then he released his second single called we warm embrace which is a more traditional r b soul kind of track [Music] and he finally released his 10th studio album breezy on june 24th debuting at number four selling 72 000 copies first week but during that week 5 songs hit the top 10 on billboard surpassing elvis presley as the 8th artist with the most entries on the hot 100 for a total of 112 entries [Music] baby i want you to dream [Music] the deluxe dropped two weeks later with another nine tracks and this album is super fire there's a lot of gems on here [Music] [Music] [Music] he then went on to start a new tour this year called one of them one's tour with lil baby [Music] oh what do you think is chris brown's best body of work two answers my personal answer and then what i think your fans think okay right so my personal answer would have to be um fame okay right such a good project yeah i think famous excluding this album i think for the fans it's it's between it's between that or my first my first album my class that's first of all so good yeah the first one is like set the bar like you know when people be like yo he doesn't make music like that anymore i was 14 right right but i was 14 i'm about to sing about candy candy and [ __ ] kisses yo eskimo kisses uh joe budden recently said uh in one of his latest podcasts he claimed that you're more talented than michael jackson now you know you know that giggle is like she awesome i could respectfully say you are michael jackson i appreciate that i respect it i respect everybody who has their opinion on it my personal opinion is like the way i look at michael who's like and it's like damn he's like jesus like you're not you're not gonna beat him in anything right you know so i i look at where i am now and i see like the dancing the the entertainment side the everything that comes with that it's kind of obsolete at this point like it's not you don't see a lot of people don't like having them like or incorporating their skills they might have it they're just not showing it so i just feel like with me whether it's my adhd or however it is i can't hold it in so any anything that i i'm creative about or want to do is just going to flow but the the kickstarter of all that was michael like he kick-started that for me to say i'm gonna do this you know so if people haven't grown up with michael if they don't really like i'm not into it and they only see me then they might have a different opinion but i can never take that stand and say hey yeah i'm better than him hey i'm not what i'm that that'd be the dumbest [ __ ] i've ever seen we love that about you man we love the honesty man chris brown one of if not the greatest slash most talented artists the world has ever seen this man has given us countless timeless soundtracks to our lives and he's still so young with 16 top 10 hits he never fails to amaze us here's to another decade plus of team breezy diving for the board brown able to come up with it behind the back [Applause] that's the momentum right there [Music] me
