CHRIS BROWN
Who is handling this guy's P.R.? Chris Brown needed to sit down and fall back until mid next year. Rihanna's interview on 20/20 completely threw his ass under the bus, as we knew it would. I think it was in poor taste MTV tried to cash in by having Chris interviewed at the same time. How about airing it the weekend, on Monday, but the same day. It just looked like another attack by Chris.
It use to be so easy for him. Chris was destined to take over Usher's spot. Let's be real, even if you weren't a fan, you saw it coming. Him thrusting and grinding it out on stages, making the little girls moist, it had to end with him and the crown. Bobby, then Usher and then Chris.
Usher ushered his ass off the mark by getting married and having two kids. Usher is not the same cat walking back into the game. He's on the way out. His last record didn't set the world ablaze but it flickered and then disappeared. Chris then was positioned nicely to do his thing. He thrilled his peers at award shows, dazzled audiences with his boy next door image.
Then the image started to turn. I had heard of an incident from a few people from Barbados that Chris Brown wreck Rihanna's car, given to her by the Prime Minister. He was having a tantrum and just went off on the car. It was something I put in the back of my mind and just let go. I heard another story by Karrine Stephens. People around the way call her SUPERHEAD/ SOOPAHEAD. Why? Cause she super with head! Then there was the TI incident at the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards. Here's a link to that story (DRAMA!!!!! TI NEARLY FIGHTS...).
It took this fool public humiliation of him AND Rihanna for him to realize that he had an issue and it looks like he hasn't completely learned the lesson. You have to stop playing the boy next door and let Rihanna speak without you being present or your boys and friends coming at the girl you admittedly beat to a pulp. When people hear you talk about her this is what they see: Chris Brown did that.
This image is seared into the minds of many and it's one that will forever be out there thanks to the internet generation. They both will live with this for life. I write all this to say, it's time we put this chapter of their lives away and let them both deal the way they need to, in private. She revealed her side and he revealed his. I am personally choosing to forgive Chris Brown. Why? I know what it is to make a mistake you can't take back. I hope that Chris Brown is aware that his fan base is mostly, teenage girls. His treatment of women reflects on him just as much as it does for Rihanna. Chris may be a batterer today but I'm praying for tomorrow where he'll become the man he's supposed to be.
Meanwhile, a new man has entered the area and is moving into his spot, Trey Songz! He ain't no dancer but he sure got the swagger and that about all he needs for now.
Take a little time to forgive and if you can't at least try. Please don't be a flake and try to lower yourself by calling Chris out. It makes you look ghetto and he looks far better not responding to you. Remember, the world loves an underdog. Don't turn him into one.
With a glass of wine,
Uncle D
