CB was doing great during Fame era, his album is near platinum now- no other R & B artist sold that much only Beyonce and Usher. Alicia keys and Mary J was close. CB went downhil after that because he started promoting his relationship with Karrueche and Rihanna and brought his friends into the picture. His relationships and Kid red and friends is what hurt CB. He took the attention off his music and his comeback and focus on his personal life. Plus all the drama associated with his name since last year turned off his fans, because it was hard to defend him-when he stayed around trouble. Even though I am 98% sure most of his Drama with Frank-Drake and others were all PR to promote this bad boy image he was going for, I guess he has realize that his fans want the old CB, not the Bad boy Cb. I love her-Rihanna, but I think the bad boy image was inspire by her- because that is what she wanted. CB destroy his looks which was a part of his image. I don't know what was going through this man head, but he tried the promote that bad boy image because he wanted to do rap songs. I think the Fame era CB needs to comeback. I supported all his albums and I will continuing supporting him.
