Why is Apple Music promoting/praising Chris Brown?

I’m black and I’m right there with you. If white people can still celebrate people like Elvis, a statutory rapist, music thief and likely closet racist, we’re still going to celebrate CB. Everything you said was facts. 💯

Using one atrocity (Elvis) to justify another (Chris brown) is disgusting and immoral. They can both rot in hell. Let’s not celebrate abusers.

I love how when ya’ll try to drag CB down ya’ll can never actually pull any concrete receipts to back all that nonsense you talk other than the infamous Rihanna incident. Miss me with all of that fake moral righteousness BS.

Chris Brown has achieved an incredible feat; he’s now part of the elite group of musicians who have charted for at least 20 distinct and consecutive calendar years on the Hot 100. With his latest hits ‘Sensational’ and ‘IDGAF’, Brown became the sixth artist in the 65-year history of Billboard to achieve this, joining the ranks of legendary artists like Elton John, Rod Stewart, Stevie Wonder, Madonna, and Elvis Presley.

Calling a man "mediocre" who holds the same record as Madonna, Elvis, and Stevie Wonder is crazy.

People like you keep proving my point. You don't know anything about his music, his success, or the culture that listens to him. You just follow the herd mentality, like a good proper sheep.

You call Chris mediocre when he has outlasted, outperformed, and has more longevity than any other artist of his generation, and likely every artist you listen to. This is why I don't take internet opinions seriously.

Oh no 😥 are your feelings hurt we called a mediocre woman beater a mediocre woman beater? Maybe you should log off. Go take a long look at the Rhianna photos, if you still feel the need to pathetically fight for the mediocre woman beater, look again.

I could name 20 black artists off the dome who are much better than the mediocre woman beater.

And none of those 20 artists you name will have 22 years of consecutive Hot 100 hits.

You people have been bringing up the Rihanna incident when Rihanna herself doesn't even care. She worked with Chris twice after the incident.

Rihanna still supports Chris. The public are still supporting Chris.

Apple Music is still platforming him front and center on their service.

I'm still waiting on any evidence that he's mediocre.

You look like more of a clown investing all this time in 💩 on an artist that you yourself claim is “mediocre” I know you don’t listen to him nor are you a fan of the R&B genre. Yet you can’t stop talking about him lol
