With the backlash currently surrounding Chris Brown's recent Grammys performance, these Chris Brown-ivations demonstrate the media's obsession with the young artist.
After not being invited to the Grammys for three years following the 2009 now-infamous incident with his then-girlfriend Rihanna, this year, Brown was not only invited to perform at the awards show, but also walked away with an award for Best R&B Album.
While Brown has certainly remained a fixture in the media, as well as in the music industry, these Chris Brownnovations showcase that his reputation is forever damaged, and the public is understandably unable to view him without remembering his past.
Whether you love him or you hate him, these Chris Brownnovations delve into the life and career of the artist.
