With songs like "2012", "Biggest Fan" and "Sweet Love", he sets the tone for the night in romantic, sweet and sometimes super sexual evenings with his Boo. Chris Brown's newest studio album shows his journey as an artist, both musically and creatively in the entire saga of Fortune - in art, as a music video director and entertainer. But, this is entirely Chris Brown's Fortune album is destined to be deemed as a Pop confection and a cacophony of sexual lyrics and sounds. … ExpandĬhris Brown's Fortune album is destined to be deemed as a Pop confection and a cacophony of sexual lyrics and sounds. I highly recommend deluxe version, you wouldn't like to miss out on "Free Run" or "Wait For You". All in all, Fortune is a great album that is sure to become underrated mostly because of artist's personal life but hey, everyone got their own ears, listen yourself and see if you like it. It leaves you wishing it wasn't just an interlude. When it comes to vocals, the greatest showcase of Brown's abbility comes on "Cadillac (interlude)" which is a nearly acappella song. The lyrics seem to be better than on the last album aswell (most notably on "Don't Judge Me", "4 Years Old" and "Stuck on Stupid").

There is a great ton of detail on each of the songs, making them intresting and often creating a great build up. It doesn't get boring though, the production on it's own keeps you entertained. It starts of with "Turn up the music", continues with Dubstep influenced "Bassline" and then switches to the futuristic sounding "Till I Die" but later on, it's R&B and only R&B until the last 2 tracks at the end (unless you count Nas feature on Mirage which is probably my favourite record on the album). The album seems much more cohesive than the last 2 records (even though I never had a problem with that). Why? Because I expected mostly dance, pop driven record and instead I get something that comes closer to Chris Brown's first 2 albums. The album's singles give a little wrong idea of what the album serves. "Don't Judge Me" was released as the fifth and final single from Fortune.After hearing the 5 singles realeased from Fortune, I was thinking it's gonna be good but nowhere near good as the last album (F.A.M.E.), After hearing the 5 singles realeased from Fortune, I was thinking it's gonna be good but nowhere near good as the last album (F.A.M.E.), needless to say - I was wrong. " Don't Wake Me Up" was released as the fourth single and reached the top ten in several countries. Both the second and third singles didn't became big hits. The third single of the album was '' Till I Die", which features Big Sean and Wiz Khalifa. " Sweet Love" was the second single of the album. The lead single of the album was " Turn Up The Music", which reached number ten on the US Billboard Hot 100, and number one on the UK Singles Chart. On January 7, 2012, Chris posted a tweet: "LAST TWO WEEKS of me finishing FORTUNE! I'm excited for all the fans to hear my real music".įive songs from the album were released as a single. In May 2012, songwriter and producer William Orbit revealed that the best songs he made for Madonna's album "MDNA" that did not make the final tracklisting, would be included on Fortune. In Australia, Canada, France, Ireland, Japan and Switzerland the album reached the top 10. Fortune also debuted at number one in the Netherlands, New Zealand and United Kingdom. But unfortunately plans were changed and now Fortune was supposed to be released 6 months after F.A.M.E.įortune was Breezy's second number one album in the United States and his fifth consecutive top ten album.

Fortune was originally planned to be the second disc of his fourth studio album F.A.M.E. (2011), because he recorded too many songs for one disc. This is his first release through RCA Records following the disbandment of Jive Records in October 2011.

It was released on Jafter several push backs. Fortune is the fifth studio album by Chris Brown.
