Chris Brown’s neighbors better purchase some ear plugs because the R&B crooner has a lot to celebrate over. After a well received performance on Dancing with the Stars last night (Mar 29.), Brown’s fourth studio album F.A.M.E. debuts this week at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 Album chart and the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts with total album sales of 271,000, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
F.A.M.E. has spawned three consecutive No. 1 singles and marks the multi-platinum singer’s first No. 1 album on the Top 200 chart. F.A.M.E. is also the second highest-selling album of the year and Brown’s second highest debut next to Exclusive’s” 294,000.
The success of F.A.M.E. follows Brown reaching the No. 1 position on both the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and the Urban Mainstream radio charts with his current single “Look At Me Now” featuring Lil Wayne and Busta Rhymes.
“Look At Me Now” is Brown’s third successive No. 1 Urban Mainstream single from the new album. It was preceded by “Deuces” featuring Tyga and Kevin McCall and “No BS.”
Brown co-wrote the majority of F.A.M.E., the follow-up to his 2X Grammy-nominated 2009 album, Graffiti. Sporting collaborations with Justin Bieber, Lil Wayne, Wiz Khalifa, and Ludacris, among others.
In more chart news, Jennifer Hudson’s sophomore effort took the runner up spot on this week’s Billboard 200, selling with 165,000 units. Hudson’s debut album also bowed at No. 2 but sold 217,000 the first week.
Bobby V’s “Fly On the Wall,” landed at No. 9 with 38,000.
Chris Brown has just made history! The R&B superstar scored his first #1 album with F.A.M.E, making him the only male artist to have a number one in the Billboard 200 chart for each of the last seven years. Not only that, but he also beat out Hudson and Bobby V for this coveted spot at the top of the charts. It’s an incredible accomplishment, and we’re here to tell you all about it!
The success of Chris Brown’s sixth studio album F.A.M.E is undeniable; not only did it reach the peak position on the US albums chart, but it also hit #1 in several other countries around the world such as Canada, Norway and New Zealand – proving how popular his music truly is! But what makes this achievement even more remarkable is that two other artists were competing for this same number one spot: Hudson and Bobby V. Both are talented musicians who put out great music, yet they couldn’t quite dethrone Mr. Brown himself from taking the top spot once again!
This latest feat marks another huge milestone in Chris Brown’s career – a career spanning over 10 years full of both highs and lows – showing us why he is still going strong today despite any bumps in the road along his journey to stardom. With this article we’ll be exploring exactly how he managed to score yet another #1 album plus looking into why both Hudson and Bobby V didn’t quite make it up there with him this time round!
Overview Of Chris Brown’s Music Career
Chris Brown has been making music since 2005, when he released his first self-titled album. His career has skyrocketed in the years since then, as he’s gone on to release highly successful albums such as Graffiti and Fortune. Chris achieved a big milestone recently with the success of his seventh studio album, F.A.M.E., which topped Billboard 200 for its first week at No. 1 – an impressive feat!
Not only does this mark the first time that Chris has had a #1 album; it also made him one of five artists who have scored three consecutive number ones on the chart (the others being The Beatles, Eminem, 50 Cent and Nelly). What makes this achievement even more remarkable is that F.A.M.E was released during a very competitive period in terms of new music releases from other popular artists like Hudson and Bobby V.
All these successes show just how far Chris Brown has come since starting out in 2005 and demonstrate what a great musician he really is – no matter how much competition there may be among other established acts or up-and-coming stars in the industry today.
Overview Of F.A.M.E Album And Other Collaborations
F.A.M.E., Chris Brown’s seventh album, was released in 2011 and quickly climbed the charts to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart – an incredible accomplishment! The star-studded tracklist includes collaborations with artists such as Lil Wayne, Justin Bieber, Busta Rhymes, Jadakiss and more. Songs like ‘Yeah 3x’ and ‘Look At Me Now’ were instant hits for Brown and helped make F.A.M.E one of his most successful albums yet.
Aside from releasing this highly acclaimed album, Chris has also collaborated with other popular artists over the years including Hudson and Bobby V. His duet with Hudson titled “Deuces” peaked at number 14 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart while his collaboration with Bobby V called “Your World” placed at number 99 on the same chart – indicating that they both had a major impact on music fans worldwide despite being up against some tough competition.
Chris Brown’s success is a testament to his hard work and dedication to making great quality music regardless of who he works with or what genre it belongs to; proving that by staying true to himself he can still be a major player in today’s music industry.
Conclusion
I have been a fan of Chris Brown’s music for many years now. His latest album, F.A.M.E., has taken him to the top of the charts and earned him his first #1 album. This is quite an accomplishment considering he’s had some bumps in the road throughout his career up until this point. It’s nice to see that he continues to create great music regardless of what life throws at him.
He also worked with other artists such as Hudson and Bobby V on songs featured on F.A.M.E., which further helped propel it to success. The collaborations only add to the diversity and range present within the album, making it even more enjoyable than if it was just one artist all by himself.
Overall, I’m proud of Chris Brown for achieving something most artists can only dream about: having their own #1 album! It’s definitely an impressive feat and I look forward to seeing what else he has in store musically in future releases!
