@ everyone wondering why CB is being mentioned

Chris Brown's name is being brought up because it's ironic that someone with his reputation is fairing better than Ciara, whose catalogue has outsold CB's. In a lot of ways, he and Ci Ci are were in the same boat. Both had recent flop albums and a lot to prove. Chris made mixtapes, did multiple features, and gave lots performances at everywhere from shopping malls to small clubs to try to get his career back on track. You can't say the same about Ciara. Instead of everyone viewing internet clips of her performances at small venues, doing guest features on numerous songs, and making mixtapes, people saw Ciara on her U-stream and out and about with Kim K and LaLa. That's not how fans want to see you behaving when your career's on the line. Is it fair? no, but it is what it is. I'm def NOT buying F.A.M.E., but I can admit that Chris did a lot of things right, without his label support, and Ciara did a lot of things wrong.
