Chris Brown Thinks Backlash from Rihanna Assault is Hypocritical

In an interview with WWD, Chris got pretty honest about how he feels about still receiving backlash from his incident with Rihanna at this point of his career.

Here’s an excerpt from the interview:

In an interview Friday, Brown made it clear he’s moved on with his life, and the media should too. “I feel like my opinions vocally can be misconstrued but you can’t ever deny the talent or the that comes behind it. I would rather withdraw on trying to prove myself or apologize for a mistake I made when I was 17. I’m 27. That’s 10 years ago. I’m pretty sure 10 years ago, you might have done some s–t where you were like, ‘Damn, I’m a bigger person,’” he said. “Nobody wants to have that stigma for the rest of their life but in retrospect I could give a f–k about that stigma at the end of the day. I know my positive lane, I know my positive objective. That’s why my music has always transcended as well as the fashion.”

Brown is still defined by many for pleading guilty to felony assault charges against his then-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009. The seven years that followed were checkered with other incidents with the most recent being a criminal assault investigation at his Los Angeles home last summer. “When people see Chris Brown headlines, they’re looking for negative press or a negative story because we live in a world now where yellow journalism sells. Because if you sell that first, they’re not caring about the truth,” he said. “Right now my priorities are more focused. I’m more in tune and inclined with what I want to do as an adult, a musician, an entrepreneur, fashion designer, a creator — I just want to be able to exploit every one of my artistic abilities.”

  1. I don’t even think most people don’t like him because of the situation with Rih. He’s just unlikable and always cursing his own fans out.

  2. Everytime I’m ready to give him the benefit of the doubt he does some dumb stuff to get himself back in the news. That he can’t blame on anyone else

  3. I love chrisbrown no matter what he is my hero,pple make mistakes and learn from them,he’s been always the best ever,what happened back then was a mistake and we forgave him and we know they love each other more than life itself and I a gree they forever live each other to death.team breezy for life
