Chris Brown- “X” Album
After a series of delays, Chris Brown’s long-awaited sixth album “X “finally hit stores last week. The album is star-studded, with 10 appearances from artists including Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj, Brandy, Usher, Rick Ross, and Trey Songz.
The album features a duet with R. Kelly on “Drown In It” and a classic Breezy ballad “Autumn Leaves” with Kendrick Lamar. This album really highlights his diversity as an artist.
But did “X” mark the spot? Not quite, in my opinion. The album was not very ambitious. What I expected to be another classic Chris Brown album was watered down by pop-beats and club mixes.
