Album Description
He's a lot like the 16-year-old boy living in the house next door to you: one minute he's five-foot-seven, the next he's 6'1. One minute he's a cute little boy trying to dribble a basketball, the next a superstar point guard. One minute he's ducking under the covers pleading for five more minutes of shut-eye, the next he's racing through a day full of recording, performances and interviews. With his easy-going demeanor and schoolboy charm, Chris Brown could easily be somebody that you know. With his incredible voice and a debut cd laced with clever lyrics, hypnotic tracks and impeccable vocals, he's someone that the world will soon know. Chris isn't part of some A-list producer's camp. Nor does he hail from any of those famous urban music hubs like NYC, Compton or the ATL. Straight from Tappahannock, VA --- population 2000 -- Chris Brown proves that real talent, persistence and charisma still have a place in the music industry. One listen to Chris' 16-year-old voice and you're tempted to draw comparisons: Michael Jackson, Tevin Campbell, and Usher. But listen a bit longer and those comparisons begin to dissipate as it becomes clear that, while Chris certainly channels the creativity of those who have come before him, he definitely has a style, a flavor and a place in music that are all his own. His debut CD Young Love takes us on a journey through the malls, parties and teen hangouts as Chris covers a variety of subjects: A girl that he's dying to hit the dance floor with. A girl that's got another man. A girl that has him totally and completely head over heels in love. It's an album about young boys, young girls -- Young Love. In selecting songs for Young Love, Chris said he simply relied on his own sense of what was hot and what was real for him and his peers. "When I hear these songs, I feel something. I know I can relate to them. I take myself out of the artist box and I become an audience member and I critique myself." Chris got his musical initiation early on, inspired by what he refers to as the "eclectic" taste of his parents and soaking in the sounds of his favorites: Michael Jackson, Sam Cooke, Stevie Wonder, Donnie Hathaway, Anita Baker, and Aretha Franklin. But, like most young boys, Chris was soon drawn to rap and was certain that he would be the first emcee to put Tappahannock on the map. "I was rapping," he recalls. "I didn't understand that I could sing until I was like 11 or 12. My mom heard me singing around the house and she said, 'What are you doing? You really can sing!' So then I started going to school and singing to the girls." By the time he was 13, Chris realized that his voice was more than just a chick magnet. And so did his mother as he began to hook his son up with various producers. "When I went in and started working, there were ups and downs but I loved it and I knew I wanted to do it for the rest of my life." Chris may still be a lot like the boy who lives next door to you. But not really. You'll see.

 Pleasant. But this contains no new tracks. Don't even be fooled. November 23, 2007

Excuse Me Miss, Run It, Say Goodbye, Poppin' and Ain't No Way (You Won't Love Me) are the standouts.
Thank You and Run It (Remix) are stupid crappy songs and should have stopped filling the disc with pointless drivel.
Anyway, this CD is decent fun. It is primarily Hip-Hop and R&B-fused production and there are some ballads present.
Chris is a decent singer but now he needs to start writing some of his hits. He will be big in the future though. Just wait and see!
3.5 stars.

Chris Brown's debut is impressive. He's a very good singer and his songs are good.
My favorites include all the singles, and Poppin, and Just Fine.
Highly recommended.
AGE AINT NOTHING BUT A NUMBER ! July 9, 2007
Tiana718 (BX, NY)
There is a new star in town and all male R&B singers need to be on the look out for this newcomer who has been taking the music industry by storm.
His name is Chris Brown and already, he's being smashing up the charts with his single "Run It" featuring Juelz Santana of the RocaFella Label.
He may be only 16 years of age, but his vocal flow and dancing moves is out of this world. His signature style has already being compared to that of Grammy winners like Usher and Justin Timberlake.
Being the newest member on Jive Records, this Virginia native had the opportunity to work with producer Scott Storch, who helped him in recording more than fourteen tracks for his debut self titled album "Chris Brown."
Brown opens his album by first paying homage to his native state, followed by his smashing hit "Run It", where he sings about challenging female dancers to see if they can run the dance floor without their man(s) on their side like he does. /Is ya man on the flo? / If he ain't ----/ let me know/ let me see if you can run it run/ girl indeed I can run it run it/.
"Run It" is followed by his third track "Yo (Excuse Me Miss)" which people already are speculating to be his next single from the album. On this track, he harmonically sing his way in expectation of getting a young lady's attention across a room in a night club. /I don't know your name but excuse me miss/ I saw you from across the room/ and I got to admit that you got my attention/ you are making me want to say yo/.
"Gimme That" is another hot song on the album. The tempo of the song is very fast with its blend of ballads and has that ability to move the most timid person to stomp their feet or bump their heads to its sound woofing beat.
Being that, this is his first album, Brown collaborated with a mix of veteran artists like Noah, Jermaine Dupri and Bow Wow to help spice up his album.
Brown may be a teenager but his album is already attracting worldwide music lovers of all ages. The beats are very catchy and the lyrics contain no profanity making it a perfect album for any family. The album has very creative titles, like titles that have already being used by other artists and has being known to be a hit, like Jay-z's "Excuse Me Miss" and this album's "Yo (Excuse Me Miss)".
Although the thought of a Grammy nomination for "Best New Artist" may sound too early at this point, the album sounds promising; at the rate its first single has being jumping up the Billboard chart into being number one for the fourth consecutive week.
The recording is available in a conventional CD format and its available in all music stores.
Chris Brown, a force to be reckoned with June 8, 2007

This CD was the bomb! For a 16 year old his music is worth listening to. I was afraid it would be too bubble gum but any adult could and will enjoy this CD. There's no doubt that we're gonna hear a lot from him. Can't wait for his next CD.
