Has CHRIS BROWN Reached His Full Potential? Here's What Stunted His Growth!

[@stuntedgrowthmusic]

One of the most talented ever! Salute to Breezy. Do you think it was unfair he took the brunt of the Rhianna situation, when she played just as big a role?

[@6aliph77]

[@michaeldewitt7302]

His career would have recovered from the Rhianna situation if he hadn't had so many other issues after that.

[@AlejandroRamirez-rx1py]

Regardless of who was at fault he should have had restraint and just left her. Instead he laid hands on her and that was that. It change his image forever and he rebelled in it. It sucks but that's how it fell. The other items you present do add to his stunt. Sure, he is still relevant. But, he could've been so much more.

[@boneysouthwest]

Man that whole Rihanna situation definitely put a slight hold on his career. His off stage drug & personal problems started taking a toll. In my opinion, he is most definitely a GOAT. One of the most talented artists of our time. Great vid.

[@colewrld901]

I wouldn't say his growth has been stunted, but i will say he's boxed himself into the fast food vulgar hip hop and r&b lane since the fame album.

[@qdontae6]

I’m personally tired of him cuz all his songs are the same

[@flygenyus2186]

That’s the last full album i cared about from him. His current songs be too predictable for me to listen to

[@54car]

Took the words right out my mouth. After getting blackballed, he started putting out fast food flavor of the month music, so he’s got hits. But doesn’t have that classic /timeless album like usher’s Confessions. He never got to lock himself in for one album w/ a super producer like jermaine dupri, dark child, timbaland or the Neptunes imo.

Chris Brown is the Anakin Skywalker of Pop/R&B. They won't give him his flowers until he's gone sadly. It's amazing he's still just as big with not alot industry support.

[@johnsoncameo18]

@Emmanuel Brown Chris had big global franchise endorsements, important awards won consistently, commercials & TV, big movie deals at 1 point. If he things never took a turn we'd probably could've seen him in a Marvel, DC movie/show or something by now. The industry don't support him nowhere near at all like they used too. Chris is blackballed no debate. He's doing it all on his own really. His fanbase, social media & still being able to collaborate with a few big names and make songs keeps him afloat

People need to realize that the video isn’t saying Chris hasnt been successful or he’s not a legend. But before the DV altercation, Chris was on his way to becoming a major, global pop act. He was practically at the cusp of it. The backlash from the altercation definitely altered his career trajectory. I agree with the video, if the Rihanna altercation never happened and if he never embraced the “bad boy” persona, he could’ve been much larger and successful than he is today.

[@4DaFam]

Chris Brown would’ve been the biggest star on the planet if it wasn’t for the Rihanna incident. He’s still a huge star and he’s remained relevant for so long but that really put a stain on his career.

[@ladarionaustin2179]

I feel like with Chris Being So IMMENSELY Talented, They Couldn’t cancel Him after a certain Time💯 His Talent would over shadow the Backlash but it did stunt him

[@DivoCapella]

Facts!

[@SLIMM1209]

I don’t think it stunted him. His career isn’t over and in music and entertainment; you can peak more than once. It happens all the time. I feel like we haven’t seen his peak because he hasn’t peaked as a person yet. He’s still growing and hopefully his experiences will continue to push him to greater heights. Also we all make mistakes and bad decisions especially when we are young and then to add fame, fortune, and influence is a lot for a teen. All we can do is just pray for the brother and hopes that he just continues to put God first and let him order his steps. As fans; all we can do is observe through the lens but to know what he feels and goes through is not the same thing. Just pray for him and support him and offer fair constructive criticism is what’s best. But he hasn’t peaked yet. The best is yet to come.

[@pennyproud1621]

It didn't stunt him cus he kept going cus he kept working. Nigga was working as hard as Wayne. He shouldn't even be in this video as a stunted talent. Honestly. Hs he had some stupid songs I don't listen of course but he has remained a staple in rnb.

[@MrEOM41]

Crazy thing is that album F.A.M.E won a Grammy in 2011 they couldn’t deny how great that record was but unfortunately that was a troubling time for CB and he got involved in more controversy like as his image started to change … all in all he’s a legend and still regarded as one of the best artists of our time.

[@KWILKSP]

I think his growth was severely stunted. It’s like he’s been living off the legend status he built in his 05-11 run. Of course he has a hit every year or other year. But he has to severely bloat his albums to get numbers he’d get in his sleep in his prime. He’s still crazy talented tho

@@TheMelody15 thas what I’m sayin 🥴. As dope as Chris was and atill is, , he was never going to be MJ, just off the era alone and r&b being so infused with hip hop. MJ had broader themes to his music than CB. CB became sexualized in a way that makes a comparison to Bobby Brown more appropriate. Being inspired by MJ doesn’t equate to a second coming of MJ.

[@TheMelody15]

@@simonsez1787 Exactly! You explained it nicely, MJ being more broad definitely helped him, Chris do have broad singles singles like With You, Forever, Please Don't Judge Me, Turn Up The Music, Yeah 3X, She Ain't You, etc however he heavily relied on sexual based & drugs themes in music. Which is why he should've never took on that Bobby Brown "Bad Boy of R&B" persona cause it left him "Stagnant". Let's be honest after the F.A.M.E album there was no growth, granted he kept the hits coming but musically he never grew.

He’s topped the Billboard singles chart twice. The Billboard album chart at least 3 times I believe. Won a Grammy. Most-awarded person at the BET Awards. VMA’s, AMA’s (including one for Artist of the Year), Billboard Awards, etc. He’s the highest-selling male R&B artist of *all time*. Only male singer to have 100+ songs chart. Holds the #1 & #2 spots for longest-running #1s on rhythmic radio. Completed the ultimate comeback from a situation that would’ve killed almost anyone else’s career. Widely considered one of the best performers of his generation. Widely considered a/the king of R&B. Has maintained an insanely loyal fanbase. Had a #1 record while in prison. Has been one of the most hated figures on the planet for 12 years now and still accomplished everything I previously mentioned and more. What exactly makes so many say he didn’t “reach his potential”?

[@Tayloredup54]

I think what bothers me the most about this topic is that it’s so often the conversation when Chris’ name comes up in terms of his overall career and legacy. Like, we get it, he was poised to be the next Michael Jackson and messed it up. So, in short, no, he did not reach his full potential. That’s not where the conversation should stop, or start, for that matter. What Chris has done and is continuing to do even today is one of the most impressive careers in R&B and music in general. Even if you took away the controversy or applied his stats to another artist, it would still be undeniably great. He literally stands at the top of his lane and yet people still say he should be more. Why not speak about what he actually has done?

But it's not only that. His unfortunate past violence with women (not just RiRi), him wanting to be a Blood and publicly marketing his affiliation, him sniffin that "white girl" coke..etc), so many things just started to CHEAPEN his brand. The shit with him just started lookin ghetto asf...lol! This is why the gatekeepers in the industry don't really place on him on the same playing field as artists in the likes of Beyonce, Taylor Swift, Usher, Adele, even the Weeknd. Look how they snatched his MJ Tribute performance with Ciara off the AMA's. Unfirtunately, Chris' brand and public persona has cheapened down so much that some just no longer acknowledge or accept him as a talented artist.

Shaqs sub par work ethic could be equated with all the incidents Breezy went through as both hampered them from progressing from the superstar level to a rare level that only a few individuals have ever reached

[@ERGSEG]

@@diamondlife8086 thank you. It’s not hard to understand. Stunted growth is someone not reaching their FULL potential. It’s not saying they didn’t have success or didn’t become a legend. But it’s just that they didn’t achieve all that they could’ve for whatever reason.

[@anthonyyoung5179]

@@diamondlife8086 true but i heard a couple of “Breezy” snippets and if all goes write, he could be back on track.it seems like a lot of his songs that are really good get either leaked or put on a mixtape. His track listing is his worst flaw tbh. If he just does 15 songs on this next one I think he’ll be fine.

Beyoncé, Kanye West, and Drake had the greatest peaks in their genres last decade. Chris Brown was supposed to do the same thing for R&B at arguably the greatest level. He was really supposed to be the second coming of Micheal Jackson so disappointing smh.

If those pictures of Rihanna never leaked I think Chris would’ve been alright. Once those pictures leaked and amerikkka seen what he did his career was never the same.

[@ivanivez7456]

I agree. However the fact that he's still relevant with a successful music career 12 years after the Rihanna situation explains a lot. He's super talented. It's just unfortunate he's not bigger than he is now. Sadly majority are blinded by his talent cos of what he did to Rihanna 12 years ago.

I feel like after 2014 he started changing himself and sound. It’s still cool not like FAME which is greatest albums in my opinion

Chris brown is a all time great and still has a lot of good Music left

[@ruesydni7703]

idk about anyone else but I feel like in my opinion, I've already seen all there is to see and heard all there is to hear from chris brown. I've lost a lot of interest in him and I'm tired of hearing about how he has sex with all these women. I literally feel like I know every aspect of his sex life from his music and it's just getting to be the same old song and dance to me but I will never take away from the fact that he is a very multitalented guy. I think I backed off when I really started to see how childish, arrogant and abusive of a person he was said to be plus the colorist remarks towards a group of ppl that has always supported him as an artist. I still liked his heartbreak on a full moon album and a couple of his new songs he's dropped but it's just getting boring to me now.

[@sedi2066]

Heartbreak on a full moon is a really good album with alot of amazing songs that should've went on to be singles. Unfortunately Chris have made a sleuth of horrible decisions and overtime has kind of boxed himself in. Looking at how things happen around the release of his past few singles it seems there is agenda against him but he doesn't make it hard either with all the bad and in my opinion very immature choices. Wil continue to support him whenever he drops something I like tho

Him trying to be gangsta and vulgar stunted his growth. He's still got singles but his albums always lacked substance. Had he took a page out of Bruno Mars' book and actually diversified his sound he could still have the crossover appeal he wants.
