With Chris Brown’s BROWN just days away, fans finally know who’ll be joining him on his highly anticipated 12th studio album, slated to be released on Friday (May 8).
In a black-and-white teaser shared on Tuesday (May 5), the R&B singer revealed the star-studded list of artists featured on the project. “Tonight, at the House of Brown, we proudly present ‘A Night of Soul: R&B and Timeless Classics,’ starring Chris Brown,” a narrator opened before revealing the names.
Among the more obvious guests were Leon Thomas, who appeared on last Friday’s (May 1) “Fallin’,” as well as Bryson Tiller, who’s featured on the TikTok-viral “It Depends.” The lineup also includes Tank (though it’s unclear whether his contributions are only on “Fallin’” or extended elsewhere on the LP), Vybz Kartel, NBA YoungBoy, GloRilla, Fridayy, Sexyy Red, and Lucky Daye.
“So, sit back, relax, and enjoy the show,” the narrator continued. In the caption, Brown wrote, “THE LINEUP.” Take a look at the teaser below.
What fans are saying about Chris Brown’s ‘BROWN’ lineup
“I know that LUCKY DAYE FEATURE FINNA BE [fire],” one fan excitedly commented. “The one with NBA YoungBoy is gonna be so good,” another person chimed in. Someone else added, “Omg! I gotta hear Lucky and Fridayy tracks. I know they [are] fye.” Of course, many also took the chance to wish the legendary singer a happy birthday.
A handful of comments also called out who they felt were missing from the lineup, like Justin Bieber, who covered Brown’s “With You” at Coachella last month. Kehlani and Bruno Mars were a few of the other names thrown in the hat. “We need a song with the Biebs,” one reply with over 2,700 likes read. Hopefully, the “No Guidance” singer can make room for them on the next album or BROWN’s deluxe, if we happen to get one.
