Chris Brown is as famous for his actions as he is for his music. Who can forget his “twitter beef” with Raz B, his domestic altercation with Rihanna, his Michael Jackson tribute at the BET Awards and his recent nude photos which have been surfing all over the net. Scandals aside Chris Brown’s fourth studio album F.A.M.E. is here. The acronym stands for Fans Are My Everything or Forgiving All My Enemies.
F.A.M.E. caters for every listener as Brown tries his hand at electro-pop with songs like Yeah 3X and his club anthem Beautiful People featuring house DJ, Benny Benassi. Not to worry Brown continues to please his loyal fan base with smooth and melodic R&B songs such as All Back, Beg For It and Next To You featuring teen pop sensation, Justin Bieber. The stand out track on this album has to be She Ain’t You as Brown samples Michael Jackson’s Human Nature.
Chris Brown also manages to feature a bevy of hip hop acts which give the album another sound and dimension. However some of the songs do get tiresome and redundant. What this album manages to do is reconnect and re-establish himself as the Chris Brown we all knew and love. However it will take something more special to reach the acclaim his R&B counterparts have reached. TRC Rating 3/5
