Christopher Maurice Brown (born May 5, 1989) is an American singer, songwriter, rapper, dancer, and actor. His music incorporates elements of R&B, pop, and hip-hop, and he is known for his vocal and dance performances.

In 2004, Brown signed with Jive Records and released his self-titled debut studio album the following year. The album achieved triple platinum certification and produced the Billboard Hot 100 number-one single "Run It!", making him the first male artist since 1995 to debut at number one on the chart. His second album, "Exclusive" (2007), was an international commercial success and featured the chart-topping single "Kiss Kiss." In 2009, Brown was arrested and later pleaded guilty to felony assault of singer Rihanna, his then-girlfriend. He was sentenced to five years of probation and six months of community service. That same year, he released his third studio album, "Graffiti," which received mixed reviews and was less commercially successful than his previous releases. Brown’s fourth album, "F.A.M.E." (2011), became his first to reach number one on the Billboard 200 and included several hit singles, such as "Yeah 3x," "Look at Me Now," and "Beautiful People."
