Chris Brown



Chris Brown is a R&B/Pop singer and songwriter. He exploded on the music scene when he was just 15 years old, scoring a number one hit "Run It!" from his first self-titled album and is considered to be one of the singers to claim Michael Jackson's "King of Pop" title. His Hip-hop infused R&B style and dance movers made him a perfect teen heartthrob.

He came under heavy scrutiny and derision due to the Domestic Abuse incident of then-girlfriend, pop singer Rihanna in 2009. He was sentenced to community service and is a convicted felon. His popularity and sales took a hit, and much of 2009-2011 was spent rebuilding his image, with the occasional slip-up. It paid off; he scored a number one hit on the U.S. R&B charts with Deuces in 2010 and scored a number one album called F.A.M.E. in 2011 on the Billboard 200 charts, for which he received 3 Grammy Awards in 2012.
