Chris Brown: Jay Z 'Gets A Pass' For 'Stabbing Somebody' And 'Selling Drugs'
Chris Brown admits to his wrongdoings in the past; he knows that he's made some terrible mistakes and decisions in the past. However, he doesn't understand why the public can't forgive him, especially when they've overlooked other people's indiscretions.
In the upcoming October 14 issue of Jet magazine, the 24-year-old "Fine China" singer speaks about his bad reputation, and how the public won't forgive him for what he's done in the past. Also, he feels that the public has a harder time letting go of his misdemeanors than those of other musicians.
Chris Brown singles out of the classic hip hop artists, Jay Z, and wonders why his transgressions have been viewed more harshly than the "Magna Carta" rapper's past incidents.
"No disrespect, because I'm a fan, but nobody brings up the fact that he stabbed somebody and sold drugs," Brown refers to an incident in which the "Tom Ford" artist pled guilty to stabbing record executive Lance "Un" Rivera outside a New York City nightclub in December 1999.
"He gets a pass," he continued.
Chris Brown insisted that he's trying to tackle his own anger-management issues, and make amends for his past infamous assault of then-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009 before the Grammy's,
"You have to go through the struggle before you can get to the good part," he said. "I don't try to lash out at people or be as mad or impulsive as I used to be. I got to the point where it's only so much you can take from the master, you feel me? I've taken my fair share of lashings."
