Brown, Chris

Christopher Maurice Brown was born on May 5, 1989 and was brought up in Tappahannock, Virginia by Clinton Brown and Joyce Hawkins, as one of two children. One can say he seems to be an ordinary 16-year old schoolboy, but it's not like that. Chris Brown is considered to be a rising star of R&B. Chris has been engaged in music since his childhood. When he became elder he understood that hip-hop was his vocation. Biographers compare his voice to Michael Jackson's, Tevin Campbell's and Usher's, but they also admit that Chris Brown possesses his own unique style, his own exquisite charisma and his own excellent taste. The song, which made Chris Brown popular is "Run it". This is a team-work, where Chris and Juelz Santana took part. When "Run It" appeared in Billboard Hot 100, it immeditely lifted to the first place in chart the same week. Chris Brown became the first solo singer, who released debut work, which right away hit the chart of BillBoard. Originally Chris' album had to be called "Young Love". The disk includes the song of the same name though the title was changed. This composition was produced by The Underdogs and contains interpolation of the old hit of 1974 by group Blue Magic with the title "Sideshow". One more very popular song is "Yo", which is also about the great feeling, named love.
