He appeared down for the count in 2009. He’d been arrested, and pleaded guilty to felony assault for beating then-girlfriend Rihanna. He was sentenced to five years’ probation and six months of community service. The court of public opinion was famously split, and more famously vehement.
But Chris Brown rebounded in 2011 with a string of hit singles — “Deuces,” “No BS,” “Look at Me Now” — as well as hot features like Big Sean’s “My Last.” There have been a slew of award nominations. Twitter-trending performances on the BET Awards, the MTV Video Music Awards and “Today.” With a recent headlining U.S. tour behind him, Brown is filming a new movie and working on the follow-up to his first Billboard No. 1 album, “F.A.M.E.” Tina Davis of TDC/Phase Too discusses the artist’s slow return to the fore.
Did you map out a strategy? Or is this comeback a natural course?
It was a combination. It was about us keeping the faith, and focusing on believing in God’s plan for Chris. Since he was 14, Chris has had a creative vision and direction for himself. So it was easy to work with him and figure out how to deal with the setbacks. Of course, I could have said, “This is what you’re going to do… this is how it’s going to go,” which a lot of managers do. The label [Jive Records] supported Chris and never turned its back on him. But it was Chris who came up with putting out a mixtape.
As much as some people wanted him to go away, his business life and personal life are totally two different things. And his love for music and his talent still shone throughout all of the good and bad times. So part of the strategy was to introduce his core fan base to Chris Brown now: the same talented guy who’s 22 and has a little more edge.
How difficult was it to gain some positive momentum?
As you can imagine, everybody and his mother had an idea as to what Chris could do to come back. Even to the point of being in his ear saying, “Hey, you need to let go of your manager.” But what Chris paid attention to was not so much the fact that this or that person had an answer. His only thing was to keep writing, keep recording, keep letting out [his] emotions and feelings within [his] music so people can better understand [him] and love [his] music.
The hardest part was trying to get people to understand that it wasn’t as easy as saying, “I’m sorry,” or having the right answers in an interview. It takes more than a year to deal with things that have happened in your past — whether you’re 50 or 20.
What strategic elements are you still implementing?
Not have him do interviews but to concentrate on performing and recording. It was something we set a while back. We’re not trying to be rude, selfish or disrespectful to anyone in any way. If people are going to judge anything, judge him for his talent. He signed up to sing and entertain. Not to talk about his personal life. We look at it as starting all over. Our grind, our choices are different than they probably would have been three years ago. But we are humbly trying to get back into the swing of things. He has this movie and other scripts are coming our way. A couple of different companies have been talking to us about partnering with him. They’re not afraid to stand next to him. They understand that hey, this young man has another 20-30 years to go. He has a right to be able to grow up and learn about being a man, being a person.

The 2011 Soul Train Awards, which was taped on November 17 at the Fox Theater in Atlanta, GA, aired last night (November 27) on BET. Soul/R&B’s biggest night included winners like Chris Brown, Beyonce Knowles, Kelly Rowland and Rihanna.
Brown, who had five nominations going in, avoided going home empty handed by winning ‘Album of the Year’ for his latest release ‘F.A.M.E.’ The “Strip” star beat out Beyonce’s ‘4,’ Trey Songz’s ‘Passion, Pain & Pleasure,’ Adele’s ‘21,’ Jill Scott’s ‘The Light of the Sun,’ and Jay-Z & Kanye West’s ‘Watch the Throne’ to claim the title.
Brown’s ex-girlfriend Rihanna took home ‘Best Caribbean Performance’ for her hit single “Man Down” but lost in the category of ‘Best Dance Performance’ to Beyonce Knowles.
“Motivation” landed Kelly Rowland her first solo Soul Train Award for ‘Song of the Year,’ while Marsha Ambrosius took home ‘Record of the Year’ for her touching single “Far Away.”
Other winners included Miguel (Best New Artist), Cee-Lo Green (Best Male R&B and Soul), Mary Mary (Best Gospel Performance) and Jill Scott (Best Female R&B and Soul Artist).
During the celebration, the event paid tribute to late 90’s rapper Heavy D, with performance by Naughty by Nature, Doug E. Fresh, Kurtis Blow and Goodie Mob, who ended their set with: “We got nothing but love for you, Heavy!”
Additionally, Gladys Knight and Earth, Wind & Fire were honored during the event. Natalie Cole, Robin Thicke, Eric Benet, Marsha Ambrosius, Tamar Braxton and Bootsy Collins were among those who took part in honoring the music vets.
Winners List:
• Best New Artist: Miguel
• Best Male R&B and Soul: Cee-Lo Green

After a successful year on the charts, Chris Brown has decided to make some more noise, this time on the real estate market. Radar Online is reporting that Brown has snatched up a mansion in the Hollywood Hills for a cool $1.5 million. The price tag on the home is not the only eye-opening detail: When Brown moves in, he’ll be just miles away from his ex Rihanna.
According to listings site Zillow.com, Brown’s new digs went on the market back in 2009 for $2.6 million but dropped by over $1 million by the time the singer snatched it up in October.
Brown’s new home is eight miles from Rihanna’s front door. But they won’t be so close for long. She recently put her eight-bedroom Beverly Crest home on the market for $4.5 million, which, according to real estate site Blockshopper.com, is far above the average $1.35 million asking price for homes in her neighborhood.
Brown had been on the search for a new location since the spring, when, according to Radar, residents in his West Hollywood community complained about his loud lifestyle.
Those complaints might have been a blessing as they opened the door for Brown to score a major deal on the market with the mansion’s reduced price tag. The three-bedroom, three-bathroom bachelor pad is listed at 2473 square feet and, according to The Daily Mail, includes an elevator to go along with its outdoor pool, sleek modern patio and living room with two stories of windows.
Chris Brown knows how to put on a dance-tastic performance. And that’s exactly what the pop&B entertainer did at the 2011 American Music Awards on Sunday (November 20).
Donning a white T-shirt and jeans, Brown began his performance with his slow jam “All Back” alongside his band. With just a microphone stand in tow, the singer twirled around the stage and displayed some rather raw and emotional vocals. While it may have appeared to be a rather basic set, Breezy’s performance turned high-tech when the tune came to a close and the stage turned black.
Breezy continued his performance with another F.A.M.E. tune, “Say It With Me.” Keeping in sync with a computer-generated backdrop, the singer mirrored some Michael Jackson-esque moves with his four background dancers. As a spotlight followed the singer, CB pulled out an over-the-top choreographed sequence, full of backflips and spins that echoed similar backdrop technology used during Beyoncé’s “Run the World (Girls)” performance at the 2011 Billboard Music Awards.
Unfortunately for Brown, shortly after the performance, he lost his Soul/R&B Album nomination to ex-girlfriend Rihanna.
Even though Brown didn’t debut new material during his AMA set, Team Breezy can expect a batch of new tracks from the R&B singer when his new album, Fortune, drops next spring.
Check out the MQ and HQ pics along with a video of Chris’s performance below and let us what you think in the comments!
The performer roster for the upcoming 2011 American Music Awards continues to grow. The show, which airs on November 20 on ABC at 8 p.m. ET/PT, will feature performances from party starters LMFAO, Chris Brown and Marc Anthony. The three stars will join a previously announced group of performers that includes Justin Bieber, Katy Perry, Kelly Clarkson, Mary J. Blige, Christina Aguilera, Pitbull and Maroon 5. The host-free event will be broadcast live from the Nokia Theatre L.A. Live and be preceded by a one-hour red carpet ABC special at 7 p.m. The action will start even earlier with an online pre-show beginning at 5 p.m. EST hosted by former ‘NSYNC member Lance Bass, with help from Michael Buckley, Estelle, Sarah Hyland, Audrina Patridge, Josh Sussman and Xzibit. Aguilera and Maroon 5 will hook up to play their current smash hit “Moves Like Jagger.”
Last month, in a nomination special hosted by Pitbull and Nicki Minaj, it was revealed that Perry would head into the show as one of the night’s most-nominated acts (along with fellow females Adele, Lady Gaga and Taylor Swift), up for Artist of the Year, Pop or Rock Music: Favorite Female Artist and Adult Contemporary Music: Favorite Artist. It’s somewhat fitting, given not only the rather huge year she’s had, but that she also delivered a full-throttle version of her hit “Firework” at last year’s AMAs.
For the fifth year, American Music Award winners will be determined by online voting. Fans can support their favorites in all categories by heading over to AMAVote.com.
BET’s Hip-Hop Awards in Atlanta tonight reminded all of us that despite Twitter wars and media frenzy, Chris Brown is in the music industry for a reason.
The young artist was awarded with three honors, including Best Hip-Hop Video for “Look at Me Now,” but was not in attendance since he’s currently on his F.A.M.E tour. However, he tweeted, “Thank you BET but most of all TeamBreezy”
The show, hosted by funnyman Mike Epps and emceed by Da Brat (good to know she’s still around) opened up with a performance by—wait for it—T.I. No word on whether or not he arrived on a party bus.
Here’s what else happened…
Between some pretty entertaining cypher freestyles, many notable names, like Wiz Khalifa, Heavy D and Tyrese, Rick Ross and the Maybach Music Group, Big Sean and even recently released DMX alongside Swizz Beatz, hit the stage and rocked the crowd.
Lupe Fiasco also took the mic and gave a very political (not supersurprising) performance with a mysteriously masked female vocalist who turned out to be Erykah Badu.
But let’s get to the nitty-gritty and see who won what:
Best Hip-Hop Video: Chris Brown feat. Bustya Rhymes, “Look At Me Now”
Best Featured Verse: Busta Rhymes, “Look At Me Now”
Best Collaboration: Chris Brown feat. Bustya Rhymes, “Look At Me Now”
Best Live Performer: Lil Wayne
Best Lyricist: Lil Wayne
Video Director of the Year: Hype Williams
Producer of the Year: Lex Luger
MVP of the Year: Nicki Minaj
Track of the Year: Wiz Khalifa, “Black and Yellow”
Hustler of the Year: Jay-Z
CD of the Year: Kanye West, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
DJ of the Year: DJ Khaled
Rookie of the Year: Wiz Khalifa
Best Mixtape: J.Cole, Friday Night Lights
Made-You-Look Award: Nicki Minaj
People’s Champ Award: Chris Brown feat. Bustya Rhymes, “Look at Me Now”
I Am Hip-Hop Award: LL Cool J
Best Club Banger: Waka Flocka Flame feat. Roscoe Dash and Wale, “No Hands”
We hope you weren’t expecting a slow, relaxing weekend — because here’s a little Fastlife coming at you. In the latest song from Joe Jonas’ speedy-living LP, the guido impersonator apparently abandons his desire to “See No More” by shedding light on a turbulent relationship gone sour. And if you feel a bit of a Chris Brown vibe beaming out from this track, that’s not an accident — ’cause guess who co-wrote the tune with Kevin McCall? Yep — Breezy! (Production provided by Hit-Boy, in case you were wondering.) Is it a seaworthy effort, or should it be dashed upon the rocks? Listen to “Lighthouse” below to find your way ashore.
The song’s got an unusual beat, and Breezy’s influence is very clearly felt in this melancholy jam (especially since he provides the background vocals). It kinda feels like the male R&B equivalent of “Skyscraper,” if a bit more produced — both tracks are named after buildings, after all!
