The best from the R&B singer and talented dancer. - If there's one thing you can expect from a Chris Brown video, it's dancing—lots of it. The strutting, rubber-limbed star has put his slick choreo and razor-sharp moves on display since his early days with “Run It!” in 2005. Even when the music is more low-key and romantic, like on “With You”, Brown just can't stop moving.
- Chris Brown's vast catalog of album cuts shows just how effortlessly his booty-shaking hits sit alongside the biggest stars of the ‘10s. Dance-floor banger “Pass Out” is Brown at his club-ready best, while beat-heavy slow jam “Ya Man Ain't Me” reveals the singer at his most soulful-sounding. And “Should've Kissed You” is pure pop brilliance, all low-key piano and tenderhearted lyrics.
- Chris Brown's body-poppin' R&B is a sizzling amalgam of the effortless swagger and prowess of his forebears: Michael Jackson's hook-stuffed ‘80s pop, R. Kelly's flamboyant R&B and honeyed, hypnotic vocals, and James Brown's high-tempo funk flair. And his slick performance skills nod resoundingly to chart-busting ‘90s soul legend Usher.
- Chris Brown became an R&B superstar as a 16-year-old by combining his smooth, melodic voice with danceable beats, and his style proved immediately influential on his jiggy peers. Jason Derulo followed the singer's lead by pairing floating vocals with catchy synths on hits like “Want to Want Me,” while Kirko Bangz' woozy “Drank In My Cup” captures the darker, more spaced-out corner of Brown's canon.
