Fat Joe, a legendary American rapper, has stated that Chris Brown would have been on the same level as the late “King of Pop,” Michael Jackson, if he had not gotten into a fight with his then-girlfriend Rihanna in his early career.
In a recent episode of his ‘The Biggest Fat Joe’ podcast, the hip-hop great lauded Chris Brown as the most accomplished vocalist, songwriter, and performer of his generation.
Fat Joe stated: “If Chris Brown never got into the controversy with Rihanna, we would be calling him Michael Jackson right now. He’s the most talented singer, artist, performer and hitmaker of our time. There’s nobody even close to Chris Brown.
“And it’s time we move past it [his controversy with Rihanna]. It has been over 20 years and there is no more similar incident against him. What I’m trying to say is that it’s a shame that we’re lying and we’re not giving it up to the King of R&B.”
News men recalls that Chris Brown got blacklisted by many music fans, especially in the Western world, in 2009 after his then-girlfriend Rihanna accused him of physically assaulting her.
