By the end of the decade, Brown underwent a stylistic makeover during which his forebears shifted to the likes of Jodeci, R. Artist: Chris Brown X Tyga Album: Fan of a Fan the Album (Deluxe Version) Genre: Hip-Hop/Rap, Music. Within a few years, Brown became one of the biggest active pop stars with Chris Brown (2005) and Exclusive (2007), multi-platinum albums that produced five more Top Ten singles, including 'Kiss Kiss' and 'Forever.' As a featured artist or duettist, he added to the count with hits such as 'No Air,' a ballad with Jordin Sparks. While there was nowhere to go but down, at least in terms of chart positions, the singer, dancer, and occasional rapper was only getting started.

Indeed, a more representative title for the album would have been that of the 13th track, 'No Filter.' That phrase reflects his personality and perhaps his quality control.Greeted with comparisons to a young Michael Jackson and Usher, Chris Brown arrived in 2005 as a squeaky-clean pop-R&B artist with 'Run It!,' the first debut single by a male artist to top the Billboard Hot 100 in over a decade. Brown has been behind so much X-rated material that, when he keeps it clean, as he does throughout 'Make Love,' the effect is jarring. Some of the slow jams, like the Keith Sweat-referencing 'Who's Gonna (Nobody)' and Jodeci-referencing 'Proof,' are built on slinking productions that rate with the best of mid-2010s pop-R&B. With rare exception, Brown keeps it explicit, focused on flaunting. Brown doubles down on his swashbuckling persona, boasting 'I'm a champagne-pourin' n*gga, I like big asses and tits' and 'You know I don't love 'em, and you know I don't cuff 'em,' and imploring 'Can I stick it in a little bit/Don't be shy, just a little bit.'

There's some irony in writing, recording, and releasing a song bragging about not thinking of an ex.

Named after his daughter, and with an endearing portrait that features her on the front, Royalty nonetheless is designed more to please Brown's devout fans than illustrate growth. The title and cover of its parent album, however, once publicized, seemed to signal a potential shift farther away from the carousing and belligerence that have dominated his work since Exclusive.

Woozy ballad 'Liquor,' with its hook of 'All I wanna do is drink and fuck, drink, drink, and fuck,' was not atypical for him. The LP is set to hit iTunes on February 24. Here’s their Kriss Kross inspired artwork, for Fan Of A Fan: The Album. In June 2015, once the Tyga collaboration Fan of a Fan: The Album had run its course, Chris Brown released the first single from his seventh proper album. Although Tyga is at odds with with his label, he’s not letting that thwart his collaborative project with Chris Brown.
