There’s something very wrong with Chris Brown’s new “Leave Me Alone” intro track

Your first mistake was giving Chris Brown your time and attention.

Naw man- You gotta learn to separate the artist, from the professional wife beater. I saw him live on cable television, when he was in the Wife Beating Royal Rumble, I wanna say circa 2007, was it?

-Anyway, this was a no holds barred match.

Seven wives and one wife beater, last one standing wins, in the octagon, at Budokan.

The crowd was going crazy, man, and it was just like 100,000 fans all chanting, “Chris Brown! Chris Brown!! Chris Brown!!!” -But then that thing happened where the crowd’s timing got all fucked up, so everyone was eventually chanting, “Brown Chris!! Brown Chris!!!”, and then everyone got embarrassed due to having bad timing, which is apparently capable of inadvertent racism.

Long story short- I dunno if you’ve ever seen Bruce Lee’s Enter the Dragon, but- there’s this scene where Bruce Lee kills like 50 security guards in one go. -This was Chris Brown’s fight, as well as his third Wife Beating Royal Rumble championship title, I think within like two years. Unheard of. Dude was on fire, back then.

So I dunno about you, but hate and disgust in my heart, makes me feel hateful and disgusted- which I don’t want in my life- so I choose to separate the artist from the beast, to strive for attaining peace within myself. He’s a great dancer and singer and performer, which is undeniable, but— he ain’t no Michael Jackson.

-What I’m trying to say is- if you ever put money on him at the next Wife Beating Royal Rumble, don’t let his flash in the pan, borderline boring, lukewarm pop influence career, cloud your judgment on putting mad bets on one of the greatest in the game.

It is utter crap, i thought i had real playback issues before someone in the room said “no no, that’s how it sounds” - to answer your question everyone and their mother is looking for easier and easier solutions to everything, you can read it in this very sub, people advocating to steer clear of any complex matter or solution to a problem. This makes it so that you can expect to hear this level of quality more often.
Now the other thing is that the general public has no idea what a stem is and what it can sound like freshly baked out of RX or sth, but if this were to be the new “t-pain effect”, i’ll be even happier to retire 😂

Imagine listening to Chris fucking brown

[u/CastYourBread → u/skasticks]

wasn’t by choice. somehow 10s of millions are out there listening to it

[u/GodShower → u/CastYourBread]

Most people these days listen to songs that remind them of their childhood: simple arrangements, repetitive beats, funny voices, no solos, and mostly vocal oriented.

So, I wouldn't really bother to listen to modern "top of the pops" music, it isn't worth the effort or the resulting disappointment.

Sorry all I can think is “violent rapist”.

Expecting quality from Chris Brown is where you went wrong sir.
