Chris Brown's Post-Rihanna Assault Rebound To Go Smoothly?
Chris Brown has moved on from dwelling on the aftermath of his February 8 felonious attack on Rihanna. Tuesday, he released "I Can Transform Ya" featuring Lil' Wayne and Swizz Beatz as the first single from his new album, "Graffiti," due out on December 15.
I'm not going to pretend like I get the concept behind the
caricature artwork of Chris wearing a space helmet and powder blue bow tie like
the one he wore on his Larry King interview. There must be a tie-in with the Mechanical Dummy moniker he has
adopted for a blog site and Twitter page.
But the news of this song has prompted the first update on his website ChrisBrownWorld.com since a January 9 announcement that he won two People's Choice Awards.
Not much else that has happened since has been appropriate for Chris' site's News + Blog section. This is the destination for die-hard fans looking for PR-approved fluff items.
The past seven months have been intense for the 20-year-old pop superstar. Since the incident, Chris has been scrutinized daily in the media, sentenced, interviewed by Larry King, and televised raking up weeds as a part of his community labor.
There is really only one thing he can do to rebound from this image damaging scandal-get back to work.
The release of "I Can Transform Ya" signals that the former squeaky-clean artist is pulling the plug on the Chris Brown and Rihanna circus act.
As a fan of Chris' music, I have to give it to him. "I Can Transform Ya" has all the appeal of a sticky, braggadocio hit, and Lil' Wayne and Swizz Beatz add to the package.
Produced by Swizz Beatz, the futuristic and simplistic track boats Rock Band-ready electric guitar rifts, old school hip-hop beat patterns, and the guys' promises to transform a "good girl to a freak."
Based on the unconditional support Chris has received from many of his female fans throughout the ordeal, this song will be well received.
So far, most of the responses I've read on Twitter are favorable. LOVE_RY tweeted, "THAT'S A CUTE SONG." prettyboyd17 said the song was "(Poppin)." shawdiie1 wrote, "luuv da song."
We can all guarantee that the video for this song will be among his best.
Chris Brown is expected to perform the song at the Power 105.1 Powerhouse concert on October 27 at the Izod Center in East Rutherford, New Jersey. Chris is headlining the event also featuring Keri Hilson, Fabolous, Trey Songz, and Ginuwine.
Aside from the loss of endorsement deals from family-friendly corporate sponsors, it looks like Chris' return is going to go smoothly.
Chris will also appear in the heist flick "Takers" that is scheduled for a February 2010 release. He is a co-producer of the movie that also stars Matt Dillon, Idris Elba, and T.I.
But again I'm glad he's back and I fully support this young brotha. Shunning him anymore won't help.
he beta do good with this one
