Chris Brown has revealed that his upcoming studio album pays homage to Michael Jackson. The singer will release his sixth collection X later this year and has described the new material as the “classic essence of R&B”.
“Making X, I found out who I am,” Brown told Rolling Stone. “This album has a lot of substance, from the subject matter and the situations to how it deals with love. “It’s really derived from personal experiences. Then again, I always like mixing reality with art.
“I tried to stay away from the Euro beats, and not go totally pop. Instead, I wanted to take the Quincy Jones approach.” He added: “The record pays homage to the Stevie Wonders, the Michael Jacksons, the Sam Cookes: I wanted to put that classic essence of R&B and soul with the new age of music now.
