Indeed, just a day after his daughter’s birthday, the ‘Crawl‘ crooner made his way to Instagram to lend a heartfelt letter discussing his emotional woes and maturity.

    Everyone hates him, but hey! He is human and we all make mistakes. We all have personal struggles and demons that we face everyday! I hope that Chris gets better and use this opportunity to produce great soulful, empowering music. Good Luck Chris Breezy!{}

    I’m not a doctor nor a clinical psychologist but I think she has a mental illness. Either that or she’s dumb as hell. I shall pray for her.

    • Mark111 May 28, 2015

      No, it’s him wanting to hear the “It’s ok Chris, you’re young and we all make mistakes” from his fans, well what’s left. He been doing it since 2009. Even in this, he owns up to NOTHING. Now it’s being a n1gga in America? Ok, when the last time you were followed and shot? Ok.

    • Mother May 28, 2015

      And you are a dumb ass h**. He’s a good for nothing son of a b****.

  5. RihNavy May 28, 2015

    Ch…the irony, because this ketter is attention seeking

    • Charity Black May 28, 2015

      Boah, I was just thinking this.

  6. Stephy. May 28, 2015

    He needs medication!

    Chris Brown is like the male Lindsay Lohan. A once successful t*** idol with some talent who has become a train wreck despite being given multiple opportunities. The reason he had so many haters is because many were rooting for him to make a comeback and he messed it up everytime. He needs to take a break so he can grow up or hire a team that treats him like Britney Spears so that he is hidden from the public eye.

  8. Mark111 May 28, 2015

    Oh please! This dude is over, he was given a second chance after the Rihanna beating, HE blew his career and life. Now it’s a race thing, go away.
    .
    And the grammar errors all throughout that post. I recall his fans blaming Rihanna and little ol Chris would never unless he was provoked. And now we see, now even his dumb then young now prob a baby mama somewhere (Ciara?) now see. He’s really doing nothing that Jason DeWhoLow is doing now. The attention seekers (Cb, JB and Miley. You can even throw Hilton and Lohan in there) are dead and so last year. You have so many new artist coming in and the field is leveled. It’s do you have a hit or naw era. And Chris is pretty much the male Ciara. He too is 10 years in the game and have nothing to show for it. Rihanna is the only one of the last gen “next gen” that is still doing it.
    .
    And I can’t wait til the day someone does to his daughter (Pay check is her name, right?), what he did to Rihanna.

  10. OMG Logic!!! May 28, 2015

    Says he doesn’t want to be attention-seeking, proceeds to write attention-seeking letter to himself on the internet. What kind of foolishness?

  11. The Realest May 28, 2015

  13. Pray for #R8 May 28, 2015

    He refuses to be attention seeking.. But shares a letter he wrote to himself on Instagram??? Ummm ..whet??

  14. RoyalKev May 28, 2015

    Geez, I want to buy this, but I can’t! I always supported Chris and wished him success during those difficult years after “the incident” (‘Graffiti’ era). I thought he was simply misunderstood. Then it appeared, time and time again, he positioned himself to welcome trouble in his life. It got to the point where I felt like defending CB was a task and that I’m only making excuses for him. I hate delusion! So, I stopped! I feel he’s wasting so much of his talent. At one time I thought he was the most talented guy in the industry. No disrespect to Usher! … Now I wish he had Ush’s class, dedication to his craft and discipline. Musically Chris isn’t even saying anything on songs anymore. I’m basically a disappointed fan and if all this is really coming from a sincere place I’d like to be down for cheering on Chris Brown’s comeback! …again! For now, that’s not a realistic option for me.

    • Songs In The Key Of Bey May 28, 2015

      I H8 to say this, but he needs to hit rock bottom in order to change. It seems that all that he has been through is nowhere close to rock bottom.

      • RoyalKev May 28, 2015

        ^ I’m afraid your right!

    • coolness May 28, 2015

      You know, Chris’ career will officially turn a decade old soon. I think sometime in June. In these 10 years, at least five of them have been marred with controversy after controversy. Tbh, Chris is doing pretty good when taking into consideration his tarnished public image and the poor state of sales – especially concerning R&B. However, with his talent, he SHOULD be bigger than he is right now. I always felt that Chris would take that lane as the leading Black male in R&B/Pop to a global scale like Usher did in the 2000s for the 2010s. Yes, Chris is popular but at 26, think of where Usher was in his career at that age. In a nutshell, the ‘Confessions’ album. Chris will not change unless his career is truly threatened and is at risk of losing it ALL. Until then, expect more screw ups followed by hollow ‘apologies’.

      • Royalkev May 28, 2015

        Wow, I thought along the same lines as you did. I was waiting for Chris to really “pop” and have that one year where he really go mainstream. He had all the ingredients and even JT & Usher saw it coming! He received a lot of high praises from both of them. I also expected it, especially after that Grammy performance of ‘Run It’. I’m not minimizing what he’s accomplished, but hopes of reaching those heights are lost now. For one, it usually happens inside an artist first decade. Aside from that the commitment has to be there to do all that’s in the best interest of your career. Chris made some bad choices, but what’s even worst is that he continued to build a bad reputation. Again, I’m not putting his career down, I just wanted him to win big the way like I knew he could!

  15. Songs In The Key Of Bey May 28, 2015

    Posting an open letter to self about stop acting like an attention-seeking brat on social media is attention seeking. Pray for her. SMDH

  16. ratedxxx May 28, 2015

    Chris needs to sit his behind somewhere. …..I used to defend him..now he’s on nerves

    You already know people think that you’re a monster for kicking your ex behind.

    Why give them more reason to hate you?

  17. Songs In The Key Of Bey May 28, 2015

    I’m wondering why this is news. Why in 2015 are some narcissists’ social media postings becoming newsworthy? Is the music industry that bankrupted on exciting talent and music that someone’s social media photos and outbursts deserve to be news???

  18. Casual-T May 28, 2015

    I’ve thought for years that something medical was the real problem with his behavior, and I, for one, will applaud his willingness to show some humility and attempt to grow. Growing up is hard, especially in the public eye.

  19. Dossome May 28, 2015

    Where’s Mobwife?lol

    As for Chris,they say “Talk is cheap”,”Actions speak louder” so..

    • RoyalKev May 28, 2015

      Hey Dos!! 🙂

      I’d love to know what some of his thoughts on Chris are these days!

      • Dossome May 28, 2015

        Hi Kev…I’d like to know too. 😀

  20. #TeamTinashe Stan May 28, 2015

    Chris needs to go suck a dry wall and get his shįt together.
    Plus, he is getting annoying nowadays in music. He is literally on every rappers songs. He needs to stay away from music and just make some appearances on Iyanla: Fix my Life, Dr. Oz episode about mental illness and Celebrity Rehab (if that show still airs).

    • TRUTH SERUM May 28, 2015

      You are obsessed boo. You spend more time trolling Beyoncé than your probably do anything else. Please tell me you’re a writer for this blog and your countless posting is a scam to get more hits.. lol
