Chris Brown: Fortune – review
- (RCA)Brown's fifth album includes a song called Don't Judge Me. But even if we could forget his assault on Rihanna in 2009, there's much other ugly stuff here to judge. Strip comes with a Benny Hill bounce and all the nuance of a beered-up uni lad as Brown bellows "Panties! Bra! Take it off!" The song 2012 is an apocalypse-prompted come-on, a slow jam outrageous enough (the end of the world obliges him to get it on in an "earth-shakin'" way) to sound like parody trio The Lonely Island. Even an extraordinarily great album might not eclipse Brown's past. And this is not a great album.Rating: 2/5Chris BrownR&BUrban musicHermione Hobyguardian.co.uk © 2012 Guardian News and Media Limited or its affiliated companies.
