I’ve watched your rise to fame. I remember the first time I heard “Run It!” on the radio. I was working at a day camp sitting in a tent putting together snacks (don’t ask). It usually takes a while for your songs to grow on me but that one was an instant favorite. I asked around and they told me your name was Chris Brown (Plus once the radio gets hold of a good song, they play it like there is no tomorrow). I saw the video a few days later and I thought you were soo cute and you’re a great dancer. Some time later, you dropped your song “Yo!” and you were so adorable in that video. When I got a hold of your album it was all I listened to. I remember having every song on my iPod shuffle and I couldn’t wait for your next album.
“Exclusive,” your sophomore album was great. I loved every song on that album. I think it’s very underrated but that’s another issue. I remember your “Wall to Wall” video and it seemed to me like you were trying to grow out of that cute stage. And your song “With You” had me dying to be in love so I could feel what you were feeling. I used to sing that song at the top of my lungs back in high school, lol. It didn’t hit me until I saw your “Take You Down” video that you were growing up. I loved that album and that video and your transition from boy to man.
Sometime last year, the Rihanna thing happened. It was a shock and I was sad to hear about it because one, I didn’t believe it and two, I remember thinking “uh oh, his career is gonna go down the drain.” I feel like because of the situation, you will constantly be set back because you pretty much have to start from scratch while she’s living off of the success YOU created, but I digress.
You make good music, and you make mistakes. You’re human. But I didn’t write this letter to talk about that. I love everything you put out. Your mixtapes “In the Zone” and “Fan of a Fan” with Tyga are amazing. I love who you are becoming as a person and I hope you can continue to grow. I also hope the world will one day look past your mistakes to allow you to go back to being the star you are.
Sincerely,
A fan that loves your music and is always listening.
