Chris Brown's Album 'Fortune' Given Domestic Abuse Warning


Copies of Chris Brown's current album Fortune have been marked by stickers warning against purchasing the album as he 'beats women'.

The stickers have appeared in HMV stores in London, and are thought to be the work of anti-domestic violence campaigners. The stickers read: 'Warning - Do not buy this album! This man beats women.'

Chris Brown has successfully overcome the domestic violence stigma after beating Rihanna into a bloody pulp in 2009 as the pair were en route to the Grammy Awards. He has recently been attempting to make up for his actions by visiting victims of domestic violence.

Speaking of his recent work with a US charity, the 'Turn Up The Music' star said: "It's in my heart to show my fans, my friends and family and the families at Jenesse who stood by me they were right to give me another chance. I'm working hard to make them proud."

fucking seriously, could you imagine how insane that story would be if happened this year? CONTEXT PEOPLE.

Context is important, but it doesn't erase the fact that Sean Penn is just as bad as Chris Brown and no one seems to care. (And continually bring up OH IT WAS FOREVER AGO)

i care, i think the man's disgusting but it doesn't change that it's a generational thing.

Except that, as far as I've been able to tell, everyone who knows does care.

Race obviously makes a difference, but the fact that it predated the internet era by, what, at least ten years is a huge factor.
