Chris Brown’s ‘Fortune’ To Arrive In March

Published: Tuesday 15th Nov 2011 by Sam

Chris Brown‘s comeback campaign shows no signs of slowing.

With the singer’s ‘F.A.M.E’ LP serving as both a critical and commercial success (11th best selling US album this year), progress a plenty has made with its follow-up. So much so that the 22 year old’s label have confirmed that the project, which is preceded by the single ‘Strip’, is to arrive in March 2012 – a year after its predecessor.

After selling a respectable 768k of ‘F.A.M.E’ Stateside thus far (double the numbers 2009’s ‘Graffiti’), it’s fair to say Chris’ comeback has been a slow, yet steady process. Should the material deliver next go round, he could easily surpass his status prior to the incident which derailed him. And being a platform which supports talent and second chances, we can’t wait to see this materialise.

    Chris has really grown on me these past few years. His discography is quite impressive. I may buy this album.

  2. kingbreezy November 15, 2011

  3. Paige November 15, 2011

    i’m for sure buying his up coming album…

  4. HottieHellYeahh – Queen Of Dragging November 15, 2011

    King Breezy

  5. JER November 15, 2011

    how many singles has he released this past year to work that 768k? Chris Brown has no hype or anticipation around him. He better pull out some fire

  6. penny November 15, 2011

    Yes! I am going to buy Mary J, MJ this year and next year Chris CD

    I’m excited! I’m not here for Strip tbh. Biggest Fan has me hype though I want NEW music…I guess that’s why Strip is blah to me.

    And Chris has done well. I’m waiting for the Rihtards to come shade him and call him a flop though. I’m pretty sure F.A.M.E. is the best selling album from Jive this year…11th best selling album and 2nd best R&B I think and then best male R&B. To be honest before you even try to come for my fave(because I know some will)…

    1)It’s an improvement from Grafitti soon he’ll be better than before if he thinks smart

    2) Considering the fact his label never shipped 1 million copies to result in platnium status how much can you expect it to sell? Tbh his label did him wrong certifying Britney who has sold less but not certfying him. If he was really a flop his album would have done Ciara numbers because Jive is s***. RCA better not f*** up.

    Thats all I have to say about that because the rihtards will be coming soon with their insults and half there facts. But they don’t understand anything unless it’s Billboard charts of course.

    Fortune needs to be handled with the promo Exclusive got but serve the fans material we’ve never heard..that will be success…I’m hype for his upcoming movies, and this new album! TEAMBREEZY LEGGGOO!

    F.A.M.E got everything to hit the platinum status
    *Chris emotions
    *anticipation
    *d*** pics,
    *chair,window & ABC

    I blame lack of management (from Jive) and poor self-management (from Chris). A lot of things could have been done to support this album.

    I’ll be checking for him like I always do but I doubt songs like ‘Strip’ would do the trick this time.

    How I wish he would call Bryan-Michael C** and go back to record glossy music and videos…he still has that glossy voice anyway…that gloss IS platinum.

  12. kody3x November 15, 2011

    i think biggest fan will come out thursday

  13. Kerry Johnson November 15, 2011

    KISS MY FAT ASS 🙂

  14. kody3x November 15, 2011

  15. Kerry Johnson November 15, 2011

    LOL

  16. candas November 15, 2011

    I really don’t like Strip but I will be supporting it because I am a fan. I can’t wait for the Fortune CD.

  17. ole skool November 15, 2011

    F … Chris Brown and his FFFing stans…I cant stand that SOB.. Who cares if he releases an album or not…NEXT

  18. kody3x November 15, 2011

    @ole skool well obvious you care why you comment in the first place dumb bitchl

  19. kody3x November 15, 2011

    amas this sunday teambreezy just a reminder

  20. 100% True November 15, 2011

    Thats a big number for a black listed written off kid.

    They said he was over, they even actively tried but failed to derail him more than any one.

    YOU KNOW WHAT, IT REALLY DOESN’T MATTER HOW MANY CDs HE SOLD! truth is, he is always going to be a force to contend with in this generation’s music.

    I suspected the impact of the incident & the bad press would be felt on the sales

    but record sales is usually not most talented star’s cup of tea but the touring and everything else involved in music like the ladies and access and the luxurious life.

    Chris is only a super rich 22 years old with a burning desire to just make great music

    Fortune will definitely do better than FAME if they don’t all leak prior to its release again.

    His fan base has improved now so, hopefully the recession will not stop people from making it 1# again next year.

  21. Kerry Johnson November 15, 2011

    Kiss me i’m horny 🙂

  22. JJFAN1814 November 15, 2011

    Kerry you are too much, lol.

  24. BIANCA B**** November 15, 2011

    Ok so Chris made all of those damn video’s for the F.A.M.E ablum and still hasn’t sold 1M copies stateside???????

  25. commanderofthedancefloor November 15, 2011

    i want to hear more material from the album before i decide if im going to buy it, i really don’t want any more songs of chris brown rapping. and use less autotune. somebody said that fortune would be more r&b like the original chris brown if it is then i will definetly buy this album.

  31. flop November 15, 2011

    LMAO u can tell that this label has NO trust in him after the flop of FAME.Fortune was supposed to come out six months after FAME and now it’s pushed back till march 2012 by this time SLAYANNA will score her 18th #1 Hit.So see you in 2012 Fist brown.

  32. jamir21 November 15, 2011

    Did i just heard that Ciara is going…

    to take Rihanna`s career….HA !

    Yeah right !

  33. shell517nj November 16, 2011

    100% TRUE, you are 100% correct. The FAME album is amazing but the FAME tour put the icing on the cake. Looking forward to the release of FORTUNE. anyway, Chris is busy, starring in two upcoming movies and will be touring out of the country in december.

  34. Oceanmate November 16, 2011

    “Can’t wait” and ya know I’m gonna buy it! TEAM BREEZY B******!

  35. VA STAND UP!! November 16, 2011

    R****** stans are so pressed it’s ridiculous! Every f****** time there is a Breezy post you annoying ass forehead stans flood in here with your b*******! It’s like your favorite topic is his d***! You h*** are on his d*** harder than the one whose riding it! I bet ya’ll drool over that damn d*** pick everyday! SMH! You h*** needs LIVES! It OBVIOUS ya’ll check for everything he does!

    Anywho, I see has been snooping around on twitter. It’s funny how you and a certain someone else always seem to have the same post (don’t delete my comments Sam!!) I am gonna need to wait for some better confirmation because his Aunt and one of the people who help run his fan site got to listen to FORTUNE already and he said there is no confirmed release date. *shrugs*

    I am really looking forward to Fortune and I do think it is going to be better than FAME because what I have heard so far I love. It seems like there are a lot more ballads and records with substance and not a bunch of s** songs. Hopefuly there will be little to NO rapping and minimal features. Plus one of TB leaders said ‘Biggest Fan’ is incredible! I can’t f****** wait to here it!

    I still don’t think ‘Strip’ is a good single choice at all. I don’t know what the hell he was thinking with that one! Someone in his camp needs to be honest with him and tell him when he is making poor single choices. I can’t believe his label approved it. He should have choose ‘Leave the Club’, fans love it and he performed it at his shows! SMH! He’ll learn when “Strip’ flops. *shrugs*
