Chris Brown Looks Frustrated After Facing Another Set Malfunction On His “11:11” Tour

June 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Chris Brown is currently making his way across North America on his “11:11” tour, and so far, fans are impressed. The hitmaker has left audiences in awe with explosive performances, wild dance moves, and elaborate stunts. Unfortunately, however, he recently ran into some technical difficulties onstage. Earlier this month, he was left stranded in mid-air after some wires got stuck, prompting him to chastise his crew. He was uninjured, though he certainly seemed fed up.

Now, it appears as though he ran into yet another mishap onstage at a recent performance. In a clip making its rounds online, he’s seen closing a song and expecting to be lowered into the stage. Things didn’t play out as he expected, and he got stuck. As a result, he was forced to walk off like normal. He didn’t look happy about it either, though it’s unclear whether or not his team heard about it this time.

Luckily, fans can agree that the small mishap didn’t outshine the rest of the show. He has many more opportunities to make things up too, as his tour is scheduled to run until late summer. Brown is expected to close his “11:11” tour, which also features Ayra Starr and Muni Long, with a performance in LA on August 7.

Aside from his impressive performances, Brown is also offering fans intimate meet-and-greets, allowing them to chat with him and take fun photos. Reportedly, he’s charging up to $1K per person for them, which is certainly no small chunk of change. According to one fan, however, the photo she got with Brown was so up close and personal that it cost her her boyfriend. What do you think of Chris Brown seemingly suffering yet another set malfunction on his “11:11” tour?

They also appear to be willing to do whatever it takes to attend the “11:11” tour, based on another new clip from one of his recent performances.

In the hilarious clip, Brown is performing onstage when a shocking sign in the crowd catches his eye. “Does that say ‘I called off my engagement to come see you’?” he asked. “That’s cr*zy. I love you baby, I appreciate it.”

Chris Brown Questions Notion That He’s Been “Blackballed” At Sold-Out Show: Watch

June 6, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Earlier this week, Chris Brown kicked off his eagerly anticipated “11:11” tour with a packed performance in Detroit. He graced the stage at Little Caesar’s Arena, performing a variety of his biggest hits, dividing the show into four different parts. From the start of the show, it was clear that Brown had given the tour his all. He performed on a rotating platform, opened with a Michael Jackson voiceover, and more. He even flew over the crowd on wires as they went wild from below.

At one point in the show, the R&B icon addressed the notion that he’s been “blackballed” from the music industry after facing various allegations of violence against women. According to him, it doesn’t appear to be true, based on the size of his Detroit fanbase. “For a n***a they say is blackballed, this don’t look blackballed to me!!!” he shouted while onstage.

Brown frequently broaches the subject of being “blackballed” on social media, often suggesting that while the industry itself may want no part of him, fans certainly do. He’s scheduled to bring his “11:11” tour, which also features Muni Long and Ayra Starr, to various other cities across North America in the coming months. Brown will stop in Brooklyn, Montreal, Toronto, Boston, Atlanta, and more before wrapping things up with a performance at LA’s Crypto.com Arena on August 6.

Brown’s comments on getting “blackballed” also follow one of Azealia Banks’ online rants, in which she came to his defense. She questioned why he continues to face criticism for his alleged abuse when others seemingly get a free pass. What do you think of Chris Brown laughing off the notion that he’s been “blackballed” from the industry? What about him opening his tour with a sold-out show in Detroit? Will you be catching the hitmaker live this summer? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Chris Brown Reveals How He Has Focused On His Financial Strategy Since He Was 17

April 28, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Chris Brown reflected on how he’s accumulated his wealth during a recent appearance on the R&B Money Podcast with Tank and J. Valentine. In doing so, he recalled investing in Burger King franchises at a young age, negotiating a 50-50 profit-sharing agreement with his former label, Jive Records, as well as locking down his masters from his 2011 album, F.A.M.E., through his current releases.

“So I’m more like, you know, I’m able to now now see real money or see something from what I’ve created ’cause I know I created it so now, you know, I can go and do this now. I can create some more,” Brown explained, as caught by XXL. “Wait till y’all see what I’m about to create. So now I get to own all of that you know and it’s like what you said, I’m like a testament to [investing in yourself].” He concluded: “Hey, I’m not saying put your head down, just be the best you.”

Chris Brown Discusses His Career Finances

The podcast appearance comes as Brown has been feuding with Quavo. They each fired off diss tracks aimed at one another, earlier this month. Brown kicked things off with “Weakest Link” while the Migos rapper answered with “Over B*tches & H*es.” Brown most recently dropped a deluxe version of his 2023 album, 11:11.

Is Chris Brown Dissing Quavo On “Freak”?

April 11, 2024 by newhiphopnews

The longstanding feud with Chris Brown and Quavo is somehow still relevant to hip-hop discourse in 2024. Over the years, Chris Breezy’s picked up feuds with several artists, whether R&B stars or rappers, for petty reasons. Frank Ocean, for example, allegedly got into it with Chris Brown over a parking spot and also had a rift with Drake that reportedly resulted in a club brawl. In the latter circumstance, their shared affection for Rihanna led to the kerfuffle, though she isn’t the only woman whom Breezy has been noticeably willing to go to war for.

In the wee hours of Thursday morning (April 11th), Chris Brown unveiled the deluxe edition of his latest project 11:11 containing the single, “Freak.” Though the record serves as a posse cut with verses from Lil Wayne, Tee Grizzley and Joyner Lucas, the singer’s bars have already taken over the timeline, though not necessarily for the right reasons. On the song, Chris Brown disses Quavo, and the Migos, by extension.

Chris Brown’s “Freak”: What Did He Say About Quavo?

In “Freak,” Chris Brown plays with phonetics between the name of the Migos rapper and a famous tequila brand as a means to get his point across. “Okay, now f**kin’ my old bitches ain’t gon’ make us equal/ Sippin’ that 1942 ’cause I don’t do no Cuervo (Quavo)/ Freak bitch, she like Casamigos, not the Migos,” Breezy raps over the nostalgic sample of Nelly’s hit record, “Air Force 1s.”

Though certainly not a scathing bar that would warrant a response, the issues between the two surround their romance with Karrueche Tran. For context, Quavo and Karrueche were the subject of dating rumors shortly after her split from Chris Brown. And while Tran has gone as far as filing a restraining order against the R&B star, it seems that he still hasn’t entirely gotten over her, nor the fact that Quavo, his then-friend and collaborator, had supposedly “betrayed” him.

Did Quavo Respond?

Quavo has yet to acknowledge Chris Brown’s recent bars. Considering their history, it seems unlikely that Quavo engages with this on wax. Over the years, the two haven’t necessarily made any attempts to bury the hatchet, either. In 2017, they nearly got into a physical altercation at the BET Awards After-Party, nothing really came of it after. Even at the top of the year, when organizers seated Chris Brown and Quavo next to each other, the former explained that he didn’t really have any control over the situation. “Can’t pick who u sit by. F*ck all that growth sh*t. N***a not finna fumble my bag for little n***as,” Brown said on Instagram.

Interestingly enough, that specific seating arrangement sparked an even bigger dialogue about who the bigger star is between Quavo and Chris Brown. Though Breezy remained mum on the matter, Quavo later poked his head out and stated that his star-power is undeniable, writing, “The biggest QUAVO HUNCHO!! Aint goin back and forth.” With the release of Chris Brown’s “Freak,” perhaps we can expect a word from Quavo in the future.

His post comes after claiming the NBA removed from the All-Star Celebrity Game roster at the request of one of the event’s sponsors. “I was asked by the NBA to play in the all star game this year! Only for them to call later and say they couldn’t do IT because of their sponsors, like RUFFLES,” Brown wrote on his Instagram Story at the time. “At this point I’m sick of people bothering me and I’m tired of living in the f—ing past.” He also shared a screenshot of an email appearing to invite him to the game. “I POSTED THE EMAILS SO YALL COULD SEE. The NBA still was tryna get me to come and sit court side… NOT F—ING HAPPENING,” Brown said. Ruffles denied having any say in who participated in the event.
