Chris Brown

The boys of R&B will hit the VERZUZ stage this coming week when Omarion, Mario, Bobby V., Ray J and more will step into the ring. But who could battle Chris Brown? None of those names for sure but it appears the VERZUZ team is brainstorming a battle for Breezy.

Chris Brown was speaking with Big Boy on Monday and revealed he had an exploratory conversation with the team behind the battles.

“I’ma keep it a hundred. I’ve been talking to the people so we might figure something out but I ain’t gon’ say nothing yet. I ain’t gonna get nobody hype yet,” Chris Brown said. He added, “the check ain’t been cut, none of that.”

Breezy also revealed he once considered a VERZUZ battle but figuring out the perfect opponent would be tough.

“Me at my career now, I ain’t hanging no towel up. I don’t feel that I wanna go up against somebody that might not be in there,” Brown said. “It’s too much of a Verzuz for me. I don’t want to have to overshadow nobody or really, ‘Damn, that boy killed this person.’ I don’t even want to go back and forth with none of that.”

Who do you think can take on Chris Brown? You can hear him talk VERZUZ below. Breezy is out on Friday.

In an interview a couple of weeks ago, legendary R&B artist, Tank, went on record to say that Chris Brown was more talented than Michael Jackson. Even though Mike passed almost 13 years ago, his fan base remains strong and any comparison of any sort will not be accepted. Social media erupted, slamming the take, and then Joe Budden got into the mix, agreeing with Tank’s take.

In a new interview with Big Boy for Big Boy’s Neighborhood, Chris Brown spoke about his new album and addressed the comparisons between him and Michael Jackson.

“You’ve always given it to Michael Jackson. But now you’re getting people where they say man Chris is better than [him],” Big Boy said to Chris Brown. Breezy responded, saying that is “cap.”

Big Boy then asked Brown how he handles the comparisons between him and MJ. Brown says that he simply stays out of the conversation, and gave the King Of Pop his flowers, saying he would not be breathing if it weren’t for Mike.

“I stay the hell up out of it… I kind of back off it. My personal take on it is I wouldn’t even be breathing or even being able to sing a song if that man didn’t exist. So I don’t know if they look at it as the Jordan/Kobe thing but I can’t even look at it—[Jackson’s] light years ahead.”

“There is no competing with him,” Brown added. “I got shrines of this man hanging up in my house. Hell naw, I ain’t better than Michael Jackson.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Breezy said that he recorded 250 songs for his upcoming album, and eventually narrowed it down to just 23. “It’s crazy in the album process because let’s just say I put out an album like the Indigo album. While I was about to put that out, I was already recording songs and doing stuff for the next one. But I be having so many songs, I think for this actual project I had almost 250 songs. I was like, ‘Yeah, we gotta scale this down and figure out what to do!’”

Brown’s 10th studio album, Breezy, drops this Friday, June 24.

Chris Brown has been known for his very long albums, with Heartbreak On A Full Moon topping out at 40 songs and his follow up Indigo topping out at 30 songs. It is no secret that Breezy is a studio junkie. And in a new interview with Big Boy, Brown admitted that he recorded over 200 songs for his 10th studio album Breezy.

He told Big Boy that the upcoming album would only consist of “23 tracks,” but said that in the process of making the album, he recorded 250. “It’s crazy in the album process because let’s just say I put out an album like the Indigo album. While I was about to put that out, I was already recording songs and doing stuff for the next one. But I be having so many songs, I think for this actual project I had almost 250 songs. I was like, ‘Yeah, we gotta scale this down and figure out what to do!’”

Brown’s 10th album is set to drop this Friday, June 24, and features guest appearances from Lil Wayne, Fivio Foreign, Jack Harlow, Anderson .Paak, Blxst, H.E.R., Ella Mai and Wizkid.

This comes after Tank set the internet on fire after saying Breezy is more talented than Michael Jackson. Not only did people scold Tank for his opinion, but Joe Budden got into the mix, saying that Chris Brown is more talented than MJ. Fivio Foreign even recently crowned Chris Brown the new Michael Jackson.
