The prince of R&B, Chris Brown, appreciation thread (say what you want but he's a young legend)

[Lootpack]

We used bump this joint so hard in High School:

 

[SubZero]

Underrated song.

This is the only EDM song I like from him:

...Meh. If we're going to call anyone the Prince of R&B I feel Usher is the only one deserving of such a title. It really is criminal how underrated he is. It almost feels like the public gave up on him, and he then gave up on himself. Did he even promote his last album...that flopped?

Usher tried too many music styles and also he took his fan base for granted

 

[The Fire]

his first album a classic. most consistent r&b cat of his generation

 

[Here Comes the Pain]

Chris brown isn't a legend.

He has classic songs, but no classic album.

Prince of r&b

Chris brown ain't even the best in the r&b game right now.

 

[Swagnicious]

Because after michael Jackson the media dont want another black man to become that big again

It's not that serious.....look at how much they still praise Jimi Hendrix as the GOAT guitarist after all these decades

White people don't mind a black man being rich and popular as fukk, as long as he isn't super militant and as long as they can make money off of him. MJ certainly was no militant, and Jews made money off him to the point where he complained about them, and had to cop pleas for sounding anti-semitic

Who from his era has the same longevity and run?

Usher hasn't been popping to the public since confessions. That Karma of sacking mums most be a kicker. He needed to work with great producers same with Breezy. Can you imagine Breezy getting that Timberlake Stimulus package of Timberland and the neptunesthat album would be fire.

Mike low key was woke. He tried to finess the record companies and he stayed trying to help blacks low key.

Only Timberlake can be that big. The white savior. They had him on the cover of rolling stones magazine as the king of pop when usher was on the midst of one of the GOAT runs in pop history.

The Chris browns, omarion, usher, ginuwine, bobby browns of the world don't get that opportunity from the media. To them they might as well be the same person.

 

[SubZero]

This is still big in clubs

 

[Hopeofmypeople]

Bieber is a cac.

I know that shyt is mad sad though considering everything about that cac is pushed by the media despite his countless fukk ups. I always thought Breezy was at least pushing close to the hundreds when we talking millions since his being doing this for over a decade and has remained somewhat relevant. Guess that Rihanna shyt hurt him more than we could even imagine.

I LOVE this nikkas music, i can get jiggy with my CB playlist.

But he'll NEVER be a legend now. He was on the path to at least Usher levels of greatness before the Rihanna situation. After the Rohanna situation he just kept and keeps doing stupid shyt. He has legend level talent but he's limited his ceiling with his antics. Damn shame too cuz he does put out great music and is a great performer.
