Chris Brown seems to be back in action as he
takes charge of the November edition of Hong Kong's Prestige Magazine. Despite
the crash he experienced in his love life recently; publishing different images
of him and making fans believe he indeed had a severe breakdown. But it seem
everyone was misjudging the lover boy back then, so he decided to record a song
titled 'Don't Judge Me' and shot the video as well, just to make it clear to the world
what he's been trying to portray, but before that, he made a provoking clip of
him being drunk and asking question everyone thinks was stupid. Brizzy is still
stuck between a ranging inferno and the deep blue sea. When is he going to be
man enough to choose between Karruche and Rihanna, who's going to help him out?
No one but himself, and to buckle things up, he decides to take the Prestige
Magazine November Edition and also talked about what 'symphonic love' is all
about during the time out convo with Prestige Magazine.
What do you want the world to know about who you are and what you stand
for?
As a 23-year-old young entertainer, I want the world to see my art and
hopefully be inspired by it, promote positivity with what I do now – with painting,
with fashion, with directing, with creativity as far as videos and cinema. I
want to have people admire that and hopefully have people follow in my
footsteps.
What are you having the most fun at right now?
Honestly, my day-to-day life is the most fun right now because I get a
chance to not focus on “the artist” Chris Brown. Going through the regular
things, like going to the grocery store. I’m also running a label right now, so
I have different artists, four or five different acts, shooting videos that I’m
directing and coming together.
Tell me about your painting.
I’ve been painting secretly since I was a kid. A lot of people didn’t
know that it was my hobby. I focused on doing the bad stuff at first with
graffiti and vandalising as a kid. But as you get older, you start studying art
books and sketchbooks in the libraries. I started getting better, like maybe
three or four years ago. I met Ron English and Kid Zoom [Ian Strange] and they
were just teaching me different techniques for painting. So my art started
growing and I started doing it on my own. I finally got people to recognise it
and I did a couple of art galleries – one in LA and one in New York – and I
sold four out of my seven paintings. You know, I’m new. But my feet are in the
water and that’s all it takes. I don’t think I want to conquer painting. It’s
just something I love to do.
Acting is something else you do well. Was that something you discovered
later in life?
Acting is just something that comes natural. I used to look in the
mirror all the time, make funny faces, trying get my face right. Looking at Jim
Carrey, looking at a lot of different movies. The key is that you pick up what
you see all the time. That’s kind of where I got my Michael Jackson
inspiration, my charisma. I did a couple of acting lessons, but when it comes
down to it, I learned more from the actors on set, their energy and timing.
Brizzy try reveal he got much love for
the kids so he decided to give us more words on symphonic love.*wink*
What’s Symphonic Love all about?
Symphonic Love does programmes in schools, like with my school back
home. Musical programmes and helping kids with disabilities. I do a lot of
stuff with Best Buddies that coexists with that. The name comes from a tattoo
that I’ve got [runs hand across his chest] – something that’s over my heart
right now. So my heart is where it’s at. The tattoo “symphonic love”
encompasses the positivity of what I’m trying to do – uplifting humanity.
Is there something that fans would be surprised to learn about you?
Just how involved I am with everything. I think a lot of people, a lot
of artists, they get the glamour and glitz and everything else is already set
for them. You see it and you say, “Oh man, it’s perfect.” But everything is
already written. For me, it’s all just straight from thin air. I hear a song
[claps his hands] – that’s my concept. When you hear my records, it’s really me
writing. It’s really my emotions. It’s really me behind the cameras, directing
those videos. It’s me making the decision on what singles we put out. Being the
CEO. A real businessman at 23. That’s what I want to show my audience. The
generation that we’re in – we’re a lazy generation. The kids in my generation
are not as hyper. The work ethic isn’t there. The attention span is short. But
I think if they can see me do it at 23 and have all this stuff going on – and
still have fun while I’m doing it – who’s to say they can’t?
That the real Chris for you.
