imo i think he's an awful technical singer but i love the way his voice warbles and how reedy it is

well his restraint might be a factor of lack of technique, i don't know. but i prefer undersinging to oversinging.
― tipsy mothra, Friday, 16 May 2008 06:54 (fifteen years ago) link
(there are parts of that song where he loses the melody, but i'm not sure if that's his fault or the song's.)
― tipsy mothra, Friday, 16 May 2008 07:03 (fifteen years ago) link
what i mean is, if you listen to a song like "no air", he's completely blown out of the water by jordin sparks in terms of straight singing, but i think brown makes the song. he knows how to fuck around with his voice (like a natural over-autotune or something) and he really knows his place in terms of restraint (which you brought up, otm to you). way more skilled than a lot of ppl give him credit for i think

Chris Brown seems to me to be exactly what a Pop Star right now should be, and in that sense he's the most Warholian of Pop Stars since Britney.

Warholian? I mean I guess there's something 'pop art' about the way he does all these award show performances where impersonates Michael Jackson, then impersonates Timberlake impersonating MJ, and then goes back to straight MJ, but just...no. No.

Jay-Z Vowes Revenge "Hes A Walking Dead Man"
Jay-Z "hit the roof" when he heard about the alleged assault on Rihanna, according to an insider. A source close to Jigga says that Jay-Z has vowed to get revenge on Chris Brown if the story ends up being true. “He hit the roof. Chris is a walking dead man. He messed with the wrong crew,” the source told US Weekly.

Besides thinking Rihanna is “is so important to our culture" and that she is “the most important artist in music and has the most potential" Kanye says “I feel like, just as a person I don’t care how famous she is or even if she just worked at McDonald’s that should never happen, it should never come to that, to that place,” he said.

At the end of the LA Times story about this, regarding an earlier unprovoked assault:
“Clearly, thus far, such extreme consequences, such as the loss of his career, court-mandated rehabilitation, and even jail time, have not deterred Brown’s conduct,” the complaint states. “Perhaps, this time, the imposition of punitive damages for his despicable and unforgivable conduct will.”

After his release, Brown took to social media to deny any wrongdoing.
"I want to make it perfectly clear, this is false," he wrote on Instagram, alongside a picture that said: "This bitch lyin'."
He added in all-capitals: "I wanna make it perfectly clear...this is false," before going on to say it was "against my character and morals".
