CHRIS BROWN

my beautiful dark fisted tragedy

i probably shouldn't ask what "walnut bandit" means, huh

this dude is pretty much determined to shit on anyone that hoped he might have been redeemable huh? :-/

he just punches people, doesn't actually shit on them afaik

OMG that picture

From TMZ:

"As we previously reported, Brown had recently posted a photo of his diploma from his court-ordered anger management program."

Chris Brown now has 3 singles out that I tend to leave on and enjoy when they come on the radio ("Yeah 3X," "No Bullshit" and "Look At Me Now"). this is really difficult for me to accept.

oh god and "Look At Me Now" was produced by Diplo too? ugh

"yeah 3x" is pretty good -- "no bullshit" & "look at me now" have pretty good production

"no bullshit" is one of the best singles of the year so far \(o_O)/

yeah "No Bullshit" is aight entirely because of the production -- it's really annoying and awkward to hear so many bleeped words on a radio slow jam

yeah that's true

so glad this guy's career is over. *whew*

oh god and "Look At Me Now" was produced by Diplo too? ugh

Cooties, I tell you.

I like this song (produced by Benny Benassi lol):

i wonder if i have any sort of duty to actively seek out these four apparently-good songs or whether i can just carry on trying to pretend this dude's career is over

i don't think you're really missing anything must-hear, i'm just saying that since those songs are all on the radio here I've had to come to grips with enjoying them as pieces of music

guys quick jacking the Chris Brown thread to talk about the musician, this thread is for discussion about the Canadian singer-songwriter:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Brown_(Canadian_singer)

i checked the first 30 secs of "beautiful people" to check he hadn't stolen the nina sky track of the same name. he hadn't, though theirs is a way superior 4x4 trancey track. OBV.

That's prob my least favorite song on their ep tbh.

"yeah 3x" is the laziest title for a song in recent memory right?

i mean i know he couldn't name it "yeah", but seriously

even "yeah (yeah yeah)" or something would've been better

no "Yeah 3X" is totally a better title than any of the alternatives

music video for "Look at Me Now"

Chris Brown, Doc Brown, and Lil Wayne go back in time a few years to prevent "some unfortunate things" from ever happening is what I'm guessing the video's plot is.

those guys are almost too excited

Chris Brown rapping sounds uncannily like Jermaine Dupri

i really kinda can't stand him on that song

as great as it is

like, one of my absolute least favorite devices that rappers picked up on in the past few years (mostly wayne) is the whole "oops, i didn't mean to say that thing i just said in my planned out rap verse!" & he has that whole like two bar riff on oops my dick & it's just... no

busta & wayne save it tho

the "oops" thing is totally Wayne's fault

i hope he realizes he's to blame for that terrible trend and has something more to say than "oops"

otm

i like the wayne verse on that song a lot -- the "i don't eat sushi" line & "my dad's gay" punchline are kind of a throwback to a few years ago when wayne was legitimately silly in a charming & funny way & not in an overwrought and eye-rolling way

also if wayne wanted some double time nonsense on the third verse of "six foot seven foot" he could've at least called up busta

Earliest I can think of is Bun B, c. 1999

Big southern rap impresario
Coming straight up out the black barrio
Makes a mil up off a sorry ho
Now sit back and peep my scenario
Oops, my bad, that's my scenario
No, I can't fuck a scary ho
Now every time, every place, everywhere we go
Hos start pointing, they say there he go.
etc.

But Wayne's use is certainly more frequent and lazy.

yeah lots of earlier uses of "oops" in rap (my favorite being "Bitties In The BK Lounge") but i mean as an oft-used technique Wayne's to blame

yep i really like "look at me now" although the first time i heard it i couldn't even remember that chris brown was on it, he is waaay overshadowed by the others

ha, also ;_;

oh good

thats so funny. Your name is Pedro and you call Chris a creep? FYI he has over 7 singles and over 4 are in radio circulation now. I'm glad he admits his part in the situation even if she won't. Even though he was a teenager @ the time he showed great bravery in his actions after the incident. Eat it!

why does he brag about some chick waxing her pubic hair off

sounds like the 52-week domestic violence program worked then

What a piece of shit

Chris Brown and his passionate defenders can hop in a space shuttle and fly into the sun

so then

gotta love that two minutes of questioning counts as enough of a perceived assault for him to go completely off

"rapper chris brown"

the questions were puffballs that totally could have been responded to with the usual "i regret what happened, but I'm moving forward" too, assuming he didn't then note his album means "Forgive All My Enemies"

i guess now he's seen how his fans and the industry will stick with him beyond either rational belief or morals, he feels he can just pull any shit and he'll be fine

Step 1: When asked about Rihanna, just note you're trying to move forward, sound apologetic rather than offended
Step 2: Stick with "Fans Are My Everything," don't bring up the haters
Step 3: Do not shriek, break a window, stare down a producer and rip off your shirt before leaving the studio

my favorite is "all I've been through" i.e. the things I had to go through after I beat up a woman - I'm sure it was a headache, all he's "been through," but there was an easy way to avoid all those trials and tribulations i.e. don't beat up women
