Discover the story of the song > Only – Chris Brown

Chris Brown, also known as Christopher Maurice Brown, is a renowned American R&B singer, songwriter, and actor. He began his music career at the young age of 15, when he was signed to Jive Records. His debut album, self-titled, was released in 2005 and featured the chart-topping single "Run It!". With his melodic voice and skilled dancing, Brown quickly made a name for himself in the industry and was compared to the likes of Usher and Michael Jackson. He expanded his entertainment career with roles in films such as Stomp the Yard and This Christmas, and released several successful albums including Exclusive and F.A.M.E., which earned him a Grammy award for best R&B album. However, his personal life also drew significant attention, particularly his 2009 felony assault of fellow R&B star Rihanna, his then girlfriend. Despite this incident and subsequent legal troubles, Brown has continued to release chart-topping albums and mixtapes, solidifying his place as a prominent figure in the music industry.
