Chris Brown is tired of playing nice boy. The bad boy rears his head again as he took to Twitter yesterday and told the entire industry to kiss his ass. Are those DV, anger management classes really helping? Check out his full statement after the jump.
Again, biting the hand that feeds you, the temper tantrums, Twitter outbursts, waiting until you were about to give a major televised interview and release your CD's first single to issue a poorly written apology, getting on national television and refusing to talk about the incident, and then going tit for tat with Rihanna after saying on Larry King Live that you would no longer address the issue aren't exactly going to have people rooting in your corner. This entire rant should be redirected towards his entire team, from his manager to his publicist to his label, as well as himself for messing up his own career.
Right after the incident you can get on jet skis, be photographed partying with a gaudy $300,000 OOPS! chain, get on YouTube and clown around with Bow Wow talking about you're not a monster, but it took you 6 months to release a formal apology. Followed very quickly by a televised interview and your new single. And you expect people to believe you're genuinely sorry, that this isn't all being done solely to save a career you somehow feel you're entitled to? And this whole little outburst seems to prove that the whole "I'm so sorry" act is just that, an act.
There has also been chatter suggesting Jive didn't ship large numbers of the album to many retailers for obvious reasons. So perhaps his fans taking pics of his CDs not being on shelves is because the few copies some major retailers received were sold out. That could be part of the problem. At the end of the day there's always iTunes and Amazon. I guess Chris' team is scrambling to save face and blame the lackluster sales on something. Why not the industry instead of Chris himself? In any event, telling the industry to kiss your ass isn't exactly going to inspire them to carry your CD, or invite you to do in-stores, or convince networks to allow you to perform, or convince awards committees to nominate you for your work.
Our advice CB? Fire your entire team. The way they have helped you handle this entire fiasco suggests they may not even be in your corner. Take a slice of humble pie. Really work on whatever anger management issues you may have. Take a year or two off and get yourself together.
