1 is the GOAT and 1 is at best an average artist. There will never be another 2 Pac, closest thing I heard to Pac after he gone Z-Ro, K-Rino, Scarface, Bizzy Bone, and The Realest lol....

Chris has never had a Confessions. Chris hasn't even put out an 8701. I don't think he is anywhere near Usher's level as far as success.
I would say he is below R. Kelly and above Trey Songz as far a his over all impact and or influence thus far in the game.

:mindblown:

you completely missed the point that i laid out clear as day. usher had jermaine dupri, laface/arista, as well as jimmy jam & terry lewis......chris brown had who?

why are you comparing r.kelly to these dudes?

he got bryan Michael cox...but will not work with him. b.cox did say goodbye and actually was tryna be to chris what dupri/lewis was to usher....but didn't work out.

look up b.cox producer credits(jagged edge -promise)....nikka too real for rnb and he is responsible for a lot of confessions melodies...:sas2:




besides chris looks like he more worried about being bobby brown turnt up image wise instead of being respected in the rnb game like kellz or usher.:mjcry::aicmon:

You said chris would be popular as if had a dupri. Chris had crazy producers at his disposal. Like @hyperman25 said he had B.Cox , He had diplo for F.A.M.E Jermaine Dupri did the mixing and remix producing for his first album. Polow da Don,The Underdogs,Harmony David Samuels, and The Runners. So many producers and these are not even all of them.

Here is how I see it.
Usher Usher < Chris Brown Chris Brown ( even though I like usher's better)
Usher My Way = Chris Brown Exclusive ( Chris Brown has slight edge in success but Usher had the better album)
Usher 8701 >> Chris Brown Graffiti
Usher Confession's >>>> Chris Brown F.A.M.E
Usher Here I Stand >> Chris Brown Fortune
Then Usher raymond v raymond and Looking For myself and Chris Brown with this up coming album X.

Producers need to shut their damn mouths sometimes, the guy who most recently got in the studio with you isn't the new legend of yesteryear, how about you focus on making them the best they can be today?

don't know if chris had more success in worldwide sales. usher did about 8-10 mill worldwide on my way.

bottom line is he didnt use him. for whatever reason.

and that may be chris' own fault. i dont know. im not defending him. i dont even like the guy. but the bottom line is my point still stands, and you just re-enforced it.:yes:

chris brown's 1st album was awesome. i remember the 2nd being dope too. he kinda lost his way after that.

the bottom line is, he didnt have a JD & co like usher had with albums 2 thru 4. its not about just doing a joint here & there with so & so.

JD HIMSELF spoke on it by saying "if i had chris brown" - which is what sparked all these arguments this week to begin with.

i also feel like keyshia cole couldve been even bigger than she was.
