Chris Brown Reaction To The ‘King Of Pop’ Passing

The world continues to cope with the death of Michael Jackson, and though the King of Pop has passed away, his undying influence reigns supreme. Jackson was a worldwide phenomenon who broke race, gender, culture and age barriers, and was regarded as arguably the greatest entertainer in any genre. Celebrities and fans alike have been reaching out to MTV to pay their respects.

One of the artists of today that has garnered the most comparisons to a young Michael Jackson is Chris Brown. Like Jackson, Brown has been called a “complete package,” combining fashion sense, singing and dancing talent. Brown paid an amazing homage to the timeless icon at the 2007 MTV Video Music Awards, mimicking MJ’s iconic moves.

“Michael Jackson is the reason why I do music and why I am an entertainer,” Brown said in a statement. “I am devastated by this great loss, and I will continue to be humbled and inspired by his legacy. My prayers are with his family. Michael will be deeply missed, but never forgotten. He’s the greatest … the best ever. No one will ever be better.”

‘New’ Chris Brown Songs Are Actually Old Demos, Label Says

Late last month, Chris Brown posted a video online in which he said he’s working on a new album called Graffiti and planned to release a new single this summer — however, music is popping up sooner than he intended. Over the past few weeks, several Brown songs have been circulating on the Internet and late Tuesday night, his record company released a statement saying that the songs are not legitimate releases.

“Countering misleading reports of ‘new’ Chris Brown music: there are no ‘new’ songs from Chris Brown currently being promoted by Chris or his record label,” a representative for Jive Records said in a statement. “There are several old demos circulating that are being falsely promoted as new material from Chris.”

Two of the songs in question — “Not My Fault” and “Smash” — have been tagged with unfortunate titles, given Brown’s recent legal issues stemming from his alleged altercation with Rihanna. On Monday, Brown was sentenced to 180 days of community service and five years’ probation.

“Not My Fault” is an uptempo number that sounds like it could have been produced by the Neptunes — it even sounds like Pharrell Williams doing some ad-libs as the song ends. The record is about a young lady who falls to pieces after Brown shuns her. The woman in the song is so hurt that Brown sings about her mother calling him and saying her daughter won’t eat or sleep.

“Shorty is caught up, from a long night,” Brown sings. “She’s ready to fall, but see, it’s all right … That’s not my fault, right?”

On “Smash,” Brown is in full robotics mode and utilizes Auto-Tune, which Jay-Z slammed in his new track, “D.O.A.” “Guess who stepped in the room?” Brown sings on “Smash.” “It’s your Breezy, hit her with the Auto-Tune … I’m the kinda guy who don’t wanna follow rules, so come on baby girl, let’s break a few.” He also asks the girl he’s singing to if she wants to play with fire before telling her he knows her agenda. She doesn’t want his number, picture or autograph — she wants to “smash.” The song is obviously unfinished, as there’s no second verse.

“Uh Oh” is more of a dance record and finds Brown crooning, “There goes another one, shorty wanna rock with me … Shorty dip it low for me/ Let’s take it to the floor, show me what you got for me.”

And finally, a song called “Stronger” is a Mary J. Blige ballad that features Brown singing backing vocals. On it, the Queen of Hip-Hop Soul sings, “I will survive as long as it’s you by my side/ I’m stronger.” A rep for Blige said the song was recorded before Brown’s incident with Rihanna in February; the rep said she was uncertain when and where the song would be released.

At press time, Brown’s next LP had no official release date.

Celebs React To Chris Brown’s Plea Deal

WESTWOOD, California — On Monday night, some of Hollywood’s biggest stars descended on the Mann Village Theatre for a huge premiere, celebrating the summer’s biggest, loudest, most high-profile movie. But on the “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” red carpet, moments before the film was unveiled, the day’s news involving Chris Brown and Rihanna was on everyone’s lips.

“Violence is never the answer — even if provoked,” reasoned Aubrey O’Day, the former Danity Kane member and “Making the Band” star, who had just heard the news that Brown accepted a plea deal. “But with bigger issues like war, we just need to let go and forgive. Let people move on.”

“I just wish they were here,” “Transformers” co-star Tyrese said of Chris and Rihanna, explaining that the escapism of a film like “Revenge of the Fallen” is helpful during difficult times. “[It would help them] to embrace this energy at this premiere.”

Sure enough, a huge crowd had poured out for “Fallen” — but as the stars tried to promote their Friday release, it was hard to ignore the news that had broken just a few hours earlier.

“I wish [Chris Brown] luck,” confessed “Gossip Girl” actress Taylor Momsen, who was doubtful that the plea deal was the final chapter in the Chris Brown-Rihanna drama. “People like to obsess over personal lives — so I’m sure it’s not the end.”

“I support both artists,” said Ciara, who has toured and recorded with both Brown and Rihanna. “It’s a very personal process.”

All-American Rejects member Nick Wheeler, however, was a bit less diplomatic. “If it was just a regular dude, would [the sentence] have been the same?” he asked, posing a question on the minds of many who believe Brown’s celebrity helped him in the courtroom. “No one should turn a blind eye to [abuse]. He should get what he gets.

“We did a show with Rihanna a couple years ago,” Wheeler added. “And she was nice.”

“I wish them well,” explained Anthony Anderson, a star of the original “Transformers” film, who said that he’ll continue to buy Chris Brown albums whenever the troubled singer decides to move forward. “I’m not going to let a personal instance taint my opinion of someone musically.”

“He’s incredibly talented,” Aubrey O’Day agreed. “Regardless of his personal decisions, I will always support his music.”

wtf!
