In the new issue of JET set to hit stands today, R&B bad boy Chris Brown opens up on some hot topics which we are sure will get tongues wagging. Brown expresses his feelings on his love triangle with Rihanna and Karrueche Tran,
how the media views and portrays him, and even how Rihanna’s mentor Jay-Z conveniently gets a pass for his past indiscretions while he doesn’t. Check out excerpts below and pick up the issue today to hear the rest.
Being Portrayed In The Media:
“The media is full of yellow journalism. A lot of things I say, they will flip it. Instead of them getting off on all the positive stuff that I do, they will bring out the negative and draw out that story.”
His Feelings Towards Jay Z
“No disrespect, because I’m a fan, but nobody brings up the fact that [Jay Z] stabbed somebody and sold drugs. He gets a pass.”
Loving Rihanna and Karrueche:
“Relationships are the most difficult part. That’s why I was honest with those two girls and I put out that video. My ex and I broke up because of the “situation” and she had moved on. I fell in love with another girl. Then my ex came back, so it was like, ‘What is a man to do?’ I told them both the truth. I didn’t do the sucker role.”
On Trayvon Martinz:
“I identify with Trayvon 100 percent as far as living in 2013 and still dealing with blatant racism. This generation is so used to racism that it’s normal; we don’t care. We aren’t on drugs or catching AIDS, but they still look at us as ni**as.”
On controlling his anger issues:
“You have to go through the struggle before you can get to the good part. I don’t try to lash out at people, or be as mad or impulsive as I used to be. I got to the point where it’s only so much you can take from the master, you feel me? I’ve taken my fair share of lashings.”
