Chris Brown: Heartbreak On A Full Moon




chris-brown-album.jpg?resize=1080%2C1080

Yesterday Chris Brown dropped his new double disc 45 song album "Heartbreak On A Full Moon".
It's quite an effort that Chris Brown has put forth in the production of this album including now up to 5 full length videos including some well thought choreography...before the album even arrived. At this point, he is the hardest working man in r&b as of right now from what I see production wise.


Im currently in the process of listening to the album (into track 16 now). The album has some strong production. There are many tracks that could be hits. Much of the context is about sex and love. While there are standout tracks especially the first ten songs alone, I can't shake the lyrical content not changing ever so often. There is a lack of substance lyrically to keep it interesting...by track 17 the opening line is "bitches dancing naked in my living room"...did'nt he discus this already in track 2? 3? 4? 5?

I'm hoping for more...not even half through the album yet, but because the first half was very exciting I am hoping for more.

R.Kelly and Chris Brown can go kick rocks are far as I'm concern. I'm not helping them get richer.

I want to hear it but that long ass track list is off putting. I can't handle albums with more than 12 tracks any more.

Chris Brown's new album has 45 tracks — that's how you climb the charts in the streaming era

I give the album a 7/10. Really, the album could have just been one disc with the best songs clocking in about 12 - 13 for a really good and solid album, however the filler came soon in after that 14 mark...up to 9 songs consistantly after discussed primarily on having sex and it didnt stop there.

The sounds started to blend, and I was starting to wonder if I should listen to something else now...At the 20 mark, i felt maybe I have already listened to the best of the best. By the 30 mark I wondered, if I was just not the right audience for the album or was this past the point where he just said "fuck it put all the throwaways on anyway, they will listen to it..."....of which he is right.

You are correct. I woudln't buy a Chris Brown album...dare I say, even if it was the next Purple Rain. Nope, not buying anything by CB.

He's more like the next Bobby Brown than anything...and actaully has a better standing solo career than Brown. You not missing nothing on this album though.

Thanks and this was a very informative album. Honestly, I didn't understand the commercial appeal of these long albums until the article at the link broke it down.

Another example of Prince being ahead of his time- imagine of streaming as a concept and way of making money was around when he dropped Emancipation and Crystal Ball...

I've always been up for quality over quantity. 45 tracks makes no sense at all. Who has time to really listen to an album like that?

Nobody really he just want streams and as much streams as possible. I think he put the strongest material on the first couple songs and just let the rest go.

He was twenty years ahead of everyone. No cares anymore about how many tracks you put out in the area of streaming.
