Extolled as the first cross-over artist of a new pop/r&b explosion in the US, Chris Brown leads a new generation of artists set to dominate the musical landscape in 2006.

Chris Brown's passage into the music world wasn't as straightforward as it is for most. He doesn't hail from a famous urban music hub like New York. Neither was he part of a well connected scene.
