To add to this, he is the father of Royalty, a princess and the inspiration for his 7th studio album Royalty.

It’s undeniable his ability as a musician, dancer, and all-round entertainer. At the 54th Annual Grammy Awards (February 12th, 2012) his 4th studio album F.A.M.E. won the award for Best R&B Album and a huge number of other awards and nominations ranging from his debut as a 16 year old in 2005 to his most recent projects.

Brown’s career is long-lived, pristine and all about his music with hits such as “Look At Me Now,” “Turn Up the Music,” and “Loyal,” and successful collaborations with Omarion on his hit “Post to Be” and Lil Dicky's “Freaky Friday” in recent years.

His sixth album X was due to be released near to the end of 2013 but was pushed back due to Chris having to attend to his legal troubles and serve a stint in rehab. It was eventually released during the summer of 2014. Following X, Chris and Tyga released the follow up to their 2010 mixtape Fan of a Fan at the beginning of 2015, titled Fan of a Fan: The Album. The album spawned the hits “Ayo” and “Bitches N Marijuana.”
