American rapper Fat Joe has said that Chris Brown would have been on the same level as the late “King of Pop,” Michael Jackson, if he never got into a controversy with his then-girlfriend Rihanna in the early days of his career.
Speaking in a recent episode of his ‘The Biggest Fat Joe’ podcast, the hip-hop legend described Chris Brown as the most talented singer, hitmaker and performer of this generation.
Fat Joe said: “If Chris Brown never got into the controversy with Rihanna, we would be calling him Michael Jackson right now. He’s the most talented singer, artist, performer and hitmaker of our time. There’s nobody even close to Chris Brown.
“And it’s time we move past it [his controversy with Rihanna]. It has been over 20 years and there is no more similar incident against him. What I’m trying to say is that it’s a shame that we’re lying and we’re not giving it up to the King of R&B.”
