Album Highlight Of The Week

Chris Brown "F.A.M.E." Rating: 9/10

So this rating may be a little biased seeing how I'm a huge fan of Chris Brown's music and the team that Jive/Zomba Records has put behind this phenomenal artist and entertainer, but writers from other critically acclaimed music review sites, such as Rolling Stone, MTV, Entertainment Weekly and USA Today, have all shared in my enthusiasm over Brown's fourth CD release.

The album features RnB, Hip-Hop and dance music and allows fans of this young artists, who have been in his corner from the beginning, to hear the stark difference and gradual maturity in his song choices and vocal ability. His current radio singles “Yeah 3x” and “Look At Me Now” are currently in the top 20 songs falling at 15 and 1 respectively.

Despite his tainted image from a domestic assault incident in 2008 involving his, then girlfriend, Rhianna, Brown’s career has show resiliency. He served multiple hours of community service for the crime and has since apologized to his fans, Rhianna and the rest of the world who had their eyes on this young music superstar.

F.A.M.E., being his first album released post-incident has received some backlash from a few reviewers who feel that Brown expresses no remorse with songs entitled “Beg For It”, “Wet The Bed”, and “No B******t”. They feel that this album might alienate his current fan base that may also be fans of Rhianna’s music. But seeing how he has paid the price for the crime that he committed, I feel that it is time to move on and let the young man do what he does best…Sing!
