In the United States, Brown debuted at number seven on the US Billboard 200 with 65,000 album-equivalent units, which included 5,000 pure album sales in its first week, making it his 13th consecutive top-ten album in the country. The album also accumulated 60.31 million on-demand audio streams in the United States for its track list of 27 songs.
The goat has just unleashed a new level of fire on the world, and we simply weren’t ready for his growth. The album starts off with what many are calling his best intro yet. “Leave Me Alone” puts you in mind of the late great Michael Jackson’s song, as Chris is letting the world know that he is exactly who he thinks he is, and your opinions about him don’t matter.
The album includes 4 previously released singles “Holy Blindfold“, “It Depends“, “Obvious” and “Fallin“. Three of which have found a spot on the Billboard Hot 100 prior to the album being released, bringing his total to 122 chart entries, with “Fallin” expected to chart next week following a successful debut run during it’s release week.
Singles aside, our current Top 5 standout tracks are “Hate Me“, “It’s Not You It’s Me“,”Slow Jamz (feat Lucky Daye)“,”Perfect Timing (feat. Fridayy)“,and “What’s Love”. But hey, these might change from day to day.
The album is available on all streaming platforms and digital outlets. The vinyl is also available, but isn’t expected to ship until Fall.
It’s a big Friday for Team Breezy.
We started the day with Chris dropping Obvious, the next single from his 12th studio album, Brown. He then announced the album will drop May 8!
“Obvious” continues the thread of his BROWN era singles that began with the pop-tinged “Holy Blindfold,” followed by the Bryson Tiller-assisted “It Depends,” which peaked at No. 16 on the Billboard Hot 100.
The latter track, released in July, became certified gold by the RIAA just three months after its release, with over 500,000 equivalent units sold in the U.S.
Around the time of its certification, Brown dropped a remix featuring Usher. It won Outstanding Duo, Group or Collaboration (Contemporary) at the 2026 NAACP Image Awards, as well as the standard version (Outstanding Soul/R&B Song).
BROWN will follow his 2023 chart-topping, Grammy winning album 11:11, which included the No. 1 hits “Sensational” with Davido and Lojay and “Summer Too Hot.”
That’s not it! Chris and Usher has announced their upcoming stadium tour, R&B (Raymond & Brown). Dates and on sale times have not been released.
Chris Brown has won 2 more NAACP Image Awards this year for It Depends (feat Bryson Tiller) in outstanding Song – Soul/R&B Song and the It Depends Remix (feat Bryson Tiller & Usher) in outstanding Duo, Group or Collaboration (Contemporary).
Huge congrats to Chris!
