A warm embrace is exactly what Chris Brown‘s latest album ‘Breezy’ received upon its June 24 release.

Shining with a star-studded guest list of features including the likes of Lil Baby, Lil Durk, Lil Wayne, H.E.R., Wizkid, Ella Mai, Tory Lanez, Bryson Tiller, and many more, the 24-track affair came as the singer’s first solo studio album since topping the Billboard 200 with 2019’s ‘Indigo.’

Like its predecessor, the jam-packed LP was greeted with overall favorable reviews from fans and critics alike.  Unlike ‘Indigo,’ ‘Breezy’ entered the chart race as Brown’s first album to lack a Hot 100 top 40 hit to its credit.  The lack of buzz would later be reflected in the 60,000-70,000 units the project was initially predicted to shift by the end of its inaugural tracking week.
