‘Turn Up the Music’ maestro Chris Brown turned up at the Toy Art Gallery in Los Angeles today to unveil his new toy line ‘Dum English’ – a collaboration with famed artiste Ron English. Signing autographs and showcasing the creations for onlookers were only two of the duties the Grammy winner was on hand to perform.
Brown is undoubtedly hoping the groves of fans who had the fortune of meeting him at the toy debut will be purchasing ‘Fortune’ – the follow-up to his award-winning album ‘F.A.M.E.’. Lead by singles ‘Strip’ and ‘Music’, the album is now due in stores July 3.
Before then, catch C. Breezy being the big kid he is below (source):
Your thoughts?
Later in the evening, Chris showcased his street art for the first time at a VIP art exhibit at the Corey Helford Gallery.
ok Cb thats a good look right there,keep that hustle up.
good for him. I wonder if it punches too. check out my blog http://thedangerroomx.b*******.com/
BOYCOTT this toy! FISTopher should NOT have a toy line. He is a horrible example for young men all around the world. He DEFINITELY shouldn’t be selling anything to kids. He is an abuser and should be in JAIL.
He also stole(a phone). Lock him up! He is dangerous to society!!!!!! Not to mention, his music is pure SHITE as is his voice. He and his pencil d*** are better off behind bars!
BOYCOTT!
************
Fortune will flop.
girl, no!
@LACEFRONT,,,STFU,,,,,YOU BI-POLAR BYTCH!!
YOU AND THAT KAT CLOWN OR BI-POLAR!!!!!!!!!!!!
Chris has paid his dues, and learned his lesson, let him live. Some of you are really PRESSED and need to let bygones be bygones!

it’s whatever. not all that. the toy looks weird but i guess if it keeps his hustle. lord knows he needs it.
those r some scary looking lil fuckers. r u sure they r toys?
and for some reason “DUM” Seems to be the best fitting name for them.
…f*** am I looking at…
Dum toy indeed.
i dont like how he and te breezy keep telling us to forget. how do you expect people to forget when he just did songs with her and all the twitter publicity stunts? honestly there are more talented guys out there chris should be in jail right now and if he wasnt a celeb he would be. generic autotuned POP artist.
First he is trying to sell pit bulls, now DUM toys. I think he at least got the name right! Dude is worth over 20 million he needs to step up to some bigger hustles.

@Sam/TGJ staff —
..”groves of fans” (not ‘DROVES’ of fans?)..?! Is this some subliminal shade? Or is this..”Brit-speak”?
@Cosmo re:May 3, 4:01 am —
What if he was to be the executive producer, and co-star in a movie in which HE had the longest, continuous screen-face time/most exciting scene? A movie that would gross over $100-Million..?! Oh, wait, he already did that: “Takers”.
A 22-Y/O worth OVER, as you’d correctly stated, $20-Million..?! I’d say he’s ALREADY “stepped-up”??
X,Y,”and Z” — OUT..!!
oh wow this is a good idea
I really want to buy one.
GREAT.
Great to see him putting his energy into something positive. Those toys are dope!
I know I will buying his toy and supporting his album like usual. I am proud of you CB keep up the good work and ignore the haters.
@Cosmo
Chris is not in a 360 contract so where do you think most of his earning is going to. Now my younger family member want to get one. He should have came out around Christmas, Oh well my family will buy it anyway.
Go Chris!!!
Toy line, Clothing line yes Chris I see you. What’s next selling your art? Do your thing Chris do it.
LOL…..F*CK ALL OF YOU HATERS!…..Die Slowly (Tupac voice)
I’m loving the foolishness the haters are spewing LMAO! CHRIS BROW IS #WINNING 🙂 and they are MAD! 🙂 I LOVE IT!
Chris Brown is just that DUDE! Everything he does is a wonderful reflection of GOD’S CLORY! No matter what nasty thing they say or try to advance against this 22-year-old “BLACK JEWEL” they simply cannot stop the hustle!
“DUM ENGLISH” SIMPLY RULES!
Damn –> Singer, Songwriter, Actor, Dancer, Choreographer, Painter/Artist, Executive Movie Producer (TAKERS), Music Video Director/Producer, Toy Designer….DAMN COME ON SON YOU ARE KILLERIN THESE FOOLS OUT HERE…LOL! 🙂
CB is the best entertainer in showbiz and so talented, I am so proud of him and regaining his crown back in R & B. CB is up for best Male artist with Justin Bieber and Bruno Mars, but to be honest he has more talent than both of them, but he won’t win. Its a mainstream awards show and he isn’t back to where he was. I think in another year CB will be back to where he left off in sales. I hoping he can do it this year, but I don’t know.
The line at TAG was crazy. It was wrapped around he corner. Ppl waited up to 4 hours just to purchase a signed Toy by Chris and Ron English. The place was packed. GOD IS GOOD & CHRIS BROWN IS BLESSED!
***You hater need to fall into an open grave! #ThatIsAll 🙂
Fortune in stores July 3, 2012………you better LOOK AT GOD ummm, THE DEVIL IS A LIAR!
@zania
You know what, I really don’t care if Chris Brown wins an award that we all know is fixed and rigged for the “INDUSTRY & MEDIA DARLINGS” to win! I go back to the BS American Music Awards last year and the bullsh** they pulled with the Black Male category …oops I mean the ‘Best R&B Male Awar’d….LOL. They will do what they want regardless of talent and/or ability. Bruno Mars is amazing as well & would be my second choice, but Justin BABBLE will win….YAWN. We already know the deal!
I am just so proud of Chris Brown right now, I could “burst”. He just keeps going and growing. I feel like a “proud mother”……LOL 🙂
@James227
I think the Tue, May 2 date was all designed to coincide with his birthday May 5 and the release of Fortune which was suppose to be Tue, May 8 but RCA threw a m***** wrench in that marketing scheme! I hope he joins EPIC or another label once his contract is up!
I will be joining your family in purchasing a “DUM ENGLISH” adult toy/keepsake as soon as they are available. I’m eyeing the figure in all BLACK! I also love the Symphonic Love Charity that the proceeds of this toy will support. @SAM/TGJ you should have discussed the CHARITY.
Anywho, YEAH 3X FOR CHRIS BROWN! 🙂
@COSMO
He loves his dog and wanted to find good homes for he dog’s offspring and I’m cool with that. Black folks love their dogs too. PETA with its abusive evil a$$ (see random attacks throughout the years on women wearing fur coats and the disgusting attack on Kim kardashian) had no business mischaracterizing Chris’ puppy sell as somehting evil. I REPEAT, BLACK FOLKS LOVE THEIR ANIMALS TOO! PETA who sat mute when Gov Sarah Palin was shooting Carabo from planes and Vice President D*** Chaney killing the most defensless bird in the world QUAIL (hence the name)! Funny who that fake a$$ org elects to go after isn’t it? *side-eye*
DUM = Mechanical DUMmy (Chris’ lifestyle website)
ENGLISH = Ron English
*This Toy sell is to benefit his ‘Symphonic Love Charlity’ for Children!
Ummmmm.’Dum’,I guess!! Also,* refrain from mentioning God anywhere near these crooked celebrities!!
@Mobwife
The kids in my family love keepsakes. This will be just another one that we are not allow to touch.
100% agree about the dogs
Toys REALLY!.
YES REALLY!!
PATHETIC this KID is trying his hand at any and everything but it will not have any longevity.
Congrats are in order and I wish him success. This is actually a first for me. Alot of celebs come out with a close line or a fragrance or a children’s book but I have yet to hear of any starting a toy line. In all seriousness big props to him on this one.
@Onyx
If Madonna can go from her NAKED picture book S** to authoring children’s books then anything is possible!
THAT’S FUNNY, I THINK WE NEED TO MENTION GOD A TAD MORE!
The Devil is a liar, to GOD be the GLORY! Congrats Christopher M. Brown for taking a risk and doing something new that reflects you & your interests!
