Chris Brown was born on May 5, 1989 in Tappanhannock, Virginia. *

He gained his love of music at an early age and was influenced by the sounds his parents played on the home radio such as Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, Sam Cooke, Donnie Hathaway, Aretha Franklin and Anita Baker. *

Like many young boys, he was drawn to rap music. By the age of 11 or 12, people began to take notice of his vocal talents - especially the girls. By the time he was 13, his mother began to take him to music producers so that he could begin a career in music. Over the next few years, he rode through the ups and downs until 2005. *

At only 16, he released his self titled, debut album, Chris Brown in 2005 to great reviews from fans and critics alike - it made it to number one on the US R&B/Hip-Hop chart. The first single off the album, "Run It," was #1 on the US Hot 100 charts for 5 weeks and 4 weeks on the US R&B/Hip-hop charts. [The albums were sung/written by the duo of Dre and Vidal (Andre Harris and Vidal Davis), who also worked with Usher.]. *

He released his second album, Exclusive in 2007. *
