Born May 5, 1989, in Tappahannock, Virginia, Chris Brown is a global R&B and pop icon known for his silky vocals, electrifying dance moves, and genre-blending hits. Raised by parents Joyce and Clinton, he sang in church and taught himself Michael Jackson’s choreography as a kid. Discovered at 13, he signed with Jive Records at 16, dropping his 2005 debut Chris Brown with the chart-topping “Run It!” featuring Juelz Santana. Albums like Exclusive (2007), F.A.M.E. (2011), and Breezy (2022) have sold over 200 million records worldwide, earning him a Grammy for Best R&B Album. His 2023 album 11:11, with hits like “Sensational,” and the 2025 single “Bruce Lee” keep his streak alive. Despite legal issues, including a 2009 assault case and a 2021 lawsuit, his 11:11 tour and move to Dubai in 2024 show his enduring hustle. A father of three, Chris’s music—blending love, pain, and swagger—resonates deeply, with fans on X calling him R&B’s king.
