Chris Brown May Retire Soon
Chris Brown May Retire Soon
Chris Brown tweeted that it may be possible for him to retire after releasing his next two albums. He said that he is planning to release one more LP following his upcoming X album. The reason that he gave for retiring is the focus that he got from media on his conviction in 2009 for domestic assault.
However, the August 6 tweet was later removed from the account of the star. It can be recalled that the star pleaded guilty to charges of beating up his former girlfriend. This resulted to a five year probationary sentence for the singer. Although the singer referred to being 18 when he made the mistake, Chris Brown was already 19 during that time.
The announcement followed a short stint behind bars after he turned himself in a Los Angeles jail. This was part of an ongoing hit-and-run incident involving the star. After being booked, the singer was released on his own recognizance. The trial is scheduled to start on August 15 while the probation hearing is set for August 18.
A conviction may mean jail time for the singer. The hit-and-run charges involve two different offenses that carry a six-month sentence for each charge. Chris Brown can also stay in jail for four years if he violated the terms of his probation.
The star denied being at fault after his car crashed into another car last May 21. He is facing charges of driving without an appropriate permit as well as leaving the scene of the mishap without giving any insurance information to the victim. During that time, the singer tweeted that the other driver called up the police thinking of making money from him.
The sixth studio album of the signer is set to be released on August 20. The previous album of Chris Brown, Fortune, topped the charts in the UK and resulted to a pair of tip five singles.
