American rapper Fat Joe believes Chris Brown would have reached the same level of fame as the late “King of Pop,” Michael Jackson, if not for a controversy with his then-girlfriend Rihanna early in his career.
On a recent episode of his podcast, “The Biggest Fat Joe,” the rapper praised Chris Brown as the most talented singer, hitmaker, and performer of this generation.
Fat Joe says that if Chris Brown is the greatest in our generation
Fat Joe said, “If Chris Brown never had 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. No one else comes close to Chris Brown.
He also emphasized that it’s time to move past the incident with Rihanna, noting that it happened over 20 years ago and no similar incidents have occurred since. “It’s a shame we’re not acknowledging the King of R&B,” he added.
In 2009, Chris Brown faced backlash from many music fans, especially in the Western world, after Rihanna accused him of physically assaulting her.
