Pitchfork rates Chris Brown’s new album Brown, a 1.3 out of 10 – “Chris Brown’s soulless, hit-chasing new album doesn’t justify his return to the public eye”
Pitchfork rates Chris Brown’s new album Brown, a 1.3 out of 10 – “Chris Brown’s soulless, hit-chasing new album doesn’t justify his return to the public eye”
>This album is a real piece of shit. Why even write about it? For years, traditional media has been tiptoeing around the popularity of Chris Brown, and in reality, that benefits nobody but him. The lack of critical engagement with his music has allowed him to contextualize his own redemption with statistics and sob stories.
This is my favorite quote of the write up. Love the explanation for even bothering to review the work of awful people.

I stopped listening to his music years ago. I never found him to be one of the greats. He barely has stage presence.

Never been a Chris Brown apologist, but I am glad 20-something me didn’t get my wish to be famous—because I could not deal with a “this album doesn’t justify his presence in the public eye.”

Sounds like it lacks punch.
