Chris Brown has deleted his Twitter account, just after criticizing Walmart for not stocking his new album, Graffiti, on their shelves. The department store chain responded by saying they display the LP in all their stores.
The 20-year-old singer said on his account Sunday, “JUST WAS AT WALMART IN Wallingford, CT, 844 north colony.. the didn’t even have my album in the back? not on shelves, saw for myself?we talked to the managers and the didn’t even know anything. wow!!! but they had Alicia keys album ready for release for this tuesday comin?no disrespect to Alicia at all.. just givin an example to whos album is loaded and ready to go next week. “
But Walmart disproved Brown’s claim, saying in a statement obtained by eonline.com, “We are surprised at the comments online. All Walmart stores nationwide have carried the CD since its release, including the Wallingford, [Conn.], store mentioned in the post.”
“This store actually sold through its initial shipment over the weekend. The majority of our stores today are showing they do have copies available.”
Brown released “Graffiti” on December 8.
He has now deleted his Twitter account, with the last message: “I WANNA THANK MY FANS FOR ALL THE SUPPORT. I LOVE YALL. GOODBYE!!!!!”
