Less than two years ago, he was the 16-year-old boy next door, a teenager from the small town of Tappahannock, VA (population: 2,000), with a world of talent and big dreams.
The new album, Exclusive, which features collaborations with the Black Eyed Peas’ will.i.am, fellow platinum artist T-Pain (“Kiss, Kiss”) as well as hit songwriter/producers Sean Garrett (“Wall to Wall”), the Underdogs (“Get at ‘Cha” and “Take You Down”) and Adonis and Bryan-Michael Cox (“Tho’d,” “Fallen Angel”). The songs show how far Chris Brown has come in the two years since his last album. This time around he is co-writing on several tracks.
In addition to his burgeoning music career, Chris Brown is also branching into acting, with appearances on TV shows The O.C. and UPN’s One on One, as well as the hit feature film, Stomp the Yard, and a role in This Christmas, a holiday film coming out this winter with Loretta Devine, Delroy Lindo, and Regina King. The Screen Gems feature tells the story of a Christmas celebration one clan will never forget, as the children return home for the first time in years, bringing along plenty of baggage, revealing secrets and testing bonds to discover the true meaning of family.
Chris will also be a part of the new Rocawear men’s campaign in the fall of 2007. The campaign’s concept “I Will Not Lose” celebrates those who have overcome adversity daily to continue to thrive and make the world a better place. Chris’ participation in this campaign shows that he believes in the campaign motto: “Every success story no matter how big or small we all share a common thread and attitude.”
Chris is also involved in charity work. He has been an incredible supporter of the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital which is internationally recognized for its pioneering work in finding cures and saving children with cancer and other catastrophic diseases. He donated 50 cents from each ticket sold during his tour last summer/fall, which raised over $50,000 for St. Jude’s! Chris' largest and most visible involvement with St. Jude to date is with their Math-A-Thon program. Math-A-Thon is a school-based fundraiser where students ask their friends and family to sponsor them to do math. For every correct math problem they complete, their sponsors give them an undisclosed amount of money. The program is expected to raise over $22 million this year!
