HOW DID CHRIS BROWN BECOME FAMOUS – THE BACKGROUND STORY OF HOW TEAM BREEZY TOOK OVER THE WORLD.

 

According to source: Wikipedia ‘Chris Brown’ was born Christopher Maurice Brown May 5, 1989, in Tappahannock, Virginia. Tappahannock, Virginia is known as a small town with more or less than 2000 people. Small town indeed. So, how did this small-town resident become famous on such a grand scale?

Christopher Maurice Brown was born to Joyce Hawkins (mother and a daycare director) and Clinton Brown (father and a corrections officer). He has an older sister name Lytrell Bundy, a medical laboratory scientist according to Celebsuburb.

When ‘Chris Brown’ was about 6 years old, his parents got a divorce and started living in a trailer with his new step-dad Donnelle Hawkins. Donnelle Hawkins is spoken of as a women beater that often left ‘Chris Brown’ scared and terrified because of the way he treated his mom. ‘Chris Brown’ has talked about this in the past, and spoke of his hatred towards this man that basically left a scar in his childhood.

Growing up, ‘Chris Brown’ loved soul music, just like me if I might add. His love for soul music stem from his parents who also loved big name artists such as Michael Jackson, Otis Redding, Sam Cook and many more.

This drove ‘Chris Brown’ to love music. So much so, that he started teaching himself to dance and sing. ‘Chris Brown’s’ early life was spent in a church choir, singing talent competitions and on the basketball team as well.

After singing in front of his mom at one point, Joyce Hawkins saw the potential in her son and decided that she would help him perfect his skills for a career in music.  

I have to say, ‘Chris Brown’ is the first artist that I have studied that was not connected with anyone in the music industry before becoming famous. According to Fandom, It was around 2002 ‘Chris Brown’ was discovered by a local production team called ‘Hitmission Records.’

They discovered ‘Chris Brown’ when he was 13 at the time, singing at a gas station where his father worked. Something like this only happens by pure luck or you could say it was a push by destiny it-self. The talent and the presence about him motivated this team to take a chance on him and helped him in the best way possible.

Hitmission Records helped create ‘Chris Brown’s’ first demos and stated reaching out to major record labels in order to get him signed. During that time, ‘Chris Brown’ performed for some major record labels and was able to be noticed by Tina Davis of Def Jam Recordings at the time.

Tina Davis is a very powerful woman in the music entertainment business with connections and a long history working with major superstars of our time. In an interview posted on Grammy.com, she gave more details into her meeting with ‘Chris Brown’ and how she later became his manager.

‘Chris Brown’ signed with Jive Records in 2004 and dropped out of high school to make music his main goal around 2005. From there, its all history.

For more details on the transition period that lead ‘Chris Brown’ to sign with Jive Records, please watch the video interview with ‘Tina Davis’ below.https://www.youtube.com/embed/PIGuYXM5nSo
