It’s been 11 years since Chris Brown won his first and last GRAMMY (Best R&B Album for 2011’s ‘F.A.M.E.’), a status his dedicated fans (affectionately called #TeamBreezy) were certainly hoping would change Sunday night (February 5) when the crooner was listed again in the same category.
This time earning mention for his 2022 effort ‘Breezy,’ the R&B bad boy had stiff competition from the likes of Queen of Hip-Hop Soul Mary J. Blige, Lucky Daye, PJ Morton, and Robert Glasper.
After Glasper was named victor for his critically acclaimed album ‘Black Radio III,’ however, Brown and his fans took to social media to let it be known they weren’t exactly happy about the news.
Taking to Instagram Sunday night (February 5), Brown wasn’t exactly subtle with his commentary about Robert.
“Who TF is Robert Glasper,” the ‘Run It’ singer posted before jokingly insinuating he needed to “start playing harmonica” to nab a GRAMMY win.
Once the news reached the desk of Glasper he took time from celebrating his GRAMMY win to address Brown’s slick diss.
“It’s been brought to my attention that y’all have questions about who tf is Robert Glasper,” he started the post. “If y’all have questions. I have answers.”
Glasper followed the post by uploading a slew of congratulatory messages – shade that certainly didn’t go undetected by #TeamBreezy. Chris hit back with a similar collage of posts, showing career highlights of his own from Billboard stats to sold-out concerts.
Ay yi yi! Can’t we all just get along?
Team Breezy!
Is Cracky out of his mind? He is probably snorting anything he can find right now. Robert glasper has more versatile music than you sir. Chris brown how many times you are going to talk about puśsy and eating it? Talent wins, fück billboard.
Being more popular or more well known does not mean you should win. They’ve set that precedent so people like Bhris feel justified acting like this. Robert Glasper has an outstanding list of credits. He’s an actual R&B and jazz musician. Ignorant af.
This is Robert Glaspers’ 4th or 5th Grammy Award. He’s a musical genius in the jazz/R&B world. The Grammys go up for actual musicians. Never forget that.
coke brown is one dimensional and has been making the same music since 2016. you heard one crack brown song you heard them all. no musical range. at all.
Robert Glasper is NOT a Miles Davis. I’m sure Chris Brown know him and wouldn’t mind losing to an actual LEGEND.
Who said he was a Miles Davis? Lmao you be going off on the deep end. CLEARLY Chris’ peers (the Academy) thought Robert Glasper released the better body of work. He needs to take that up with THEM instead of acting like a teenage sore loser.
The Academy, lol
Like they actually chose based on QUALITY, lol
Beyoncé has more GRAMMY’s than Whitney & Michael yet her body of work pales in comparison.
Chris Brown said what most ppl were thinking when he won.
No one was saying anything about that untelevised category until Chris did. Be for real. And you’re applauding his public display of unsportsmanlike behavior? Chris Brown needs to grow up and so do you.
Well with Breezy shouting him out, hopefully ppl will support his body of work.
I don’t condone Chris’s behavior but at the same time, I don’t see his statement as hateful.
Immature….Yes!
It was very hateful sis. Remove your stan shades for a second. As an R&B artist Chris should know who Robert Glasper is anyway as he’s an award winning songwriter, producer and musician. Now he has his immature fans harrassing this guy like he put a gun to the Academy’s head and forced them to vote for him.
Of course Robert don’t deserve to be harassed at all. But let’s be honest….Chris Brown will be the very reason younger ppl know who he is, since his style of music isn’t promoted on most Urban blogs.
Despite having multiple GRAMMY’s…he is under exposed. This won’t change until more ppl start taken Interest in Jazz Musicians.
Then Breezy would definitely have to pick up a harmonica, lol
Breezy simply gave the Culture what they wanted…🤷♀️
Chris Brown is entitled and overrated. His fans really gas him up to be this MJ heir apparent. His music is shallow. His dance moves are reminiscent of a cràckhead dancing for change on skid row, and his singing voice sounds like his bàlls didn’t completely drop after puberty. I’m glad to see his biítch àss fail.
Everything you sail lol literally everything!!
Chris is in his mid 30’s and hasn’t shown any growth musically or vocally over the past decade. He should be grateful for the nomination.
Yet when artists switch their style up, ppl label them “sell outs” or say we want the old Chris Brown back, lol
Some Fans don’t mind like we see with Adele.
Glad anyone else won over beatem down Brown, king of ratchet and blues 😂 Congrats to Mr.Glasper!
Immature and unnecessary on CB’s part. I’m not familiar with Robert either but that’s still his peer! He’s being a sore loser.
Diva really want Breezy’s pencil d down my Diva throat💅🏾🍆
Seethe Chris!! Lmaooo🤣
The crazy thing is that Rob won a Grammy for Best R&B Album in 2013 … Back then people could say “WTF is Robert Glasper” and it wouldn’t have been this offensive.
But now… the man has multiple Grammys under his belt, Soundtrack and Scoring Creds (He did Best Man – The final Chapter) and artists are lining up and asking to be be featured on his projects. They show up at his shows and ask to perform with him .. His shows are jam sessions, you never know who will show up.
Plus the man has his own IG filter.. Type in Robert Glasper and see what happens.. lol
Robert is very much aware of how he is not GenMarket.. hence the “WTF is Robert Glasper” post from a week ago…
Hopefully now people will take the time to look him up and buy his records.. I own ALL his albums. Been a fan for a very long time.
Congrats to Robert Glasper. A TRUE artist.
Chris Smackabïtch Brown needs to lay off the coke and stop being a sore cocksuckīng loser. This behavior is exactly why he won’t ever win another Grammy.
