So many new entries in the top 20 - as if we'd ever get a flood of new entries like that today :') :( The first two were quite inessential (Bow wow though :') Cribs memories), Pump It is brilliant though, BEPs classic.

 

You've Got The Love sounds weird if just cos I'm so used to hearing the Florence version of this these days!

This song never gets old.

This two are like classics now

#14

 

First hit from the Ex of Rihanna. rapping on the song Juelz Santana, who appeared on the chart 4 times but only once not as a guest perfomer.

 

This is actually better than the Florence version despite not being as familiar with it, she oversings it a bit, this just sounds pleasant in comparison (and I say pleasant because it was never the greatest song on its own).

Biography

Christopher Maurice "Chris" Brown (born May 5, 1989) is an American singer, dancer and actor. Born in Tappahannock, Virginia, he was involved in his church choir and several local talent shows from a young age. Having signed with Jive Records in 2004, Brown released his self-titled debut studio album the following year. It peaked at number two on the US Billboard 200 and was later certified double platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). With his first single "Run It!" peaking atop the US Billboard Hot 100, Brown became the first male artist as a lead since Diddy in 1997 to have his debut single top the chart. His second album Exclusive (2007) spawned his second Hot 100 number one "Kiss Kiss", in addition to "With You" and "Forever". The album was also certified double platinum by the RIAA.

 

In 2009, Brown received much media attention after pleading guilty to felony assault of his then girlfriend, singer Rihanna; he was sentenced to five years of probation and six months of community service. His third album Graffiti was released later that year, and included the top-twenty single "I Can Transform Ya". Brown's fourth album F.A.M.E. (2011) became his first to top the Billboard 200; it spawned the successful singles "Yeah 3x", "Look at Me Now", and "Beautiful People". F.A.M.E. earned Brown his first Grammy Award for Best R&B Album at the 54th Grammy Awards. His fifth album Fortune was released in 2012. However, after the release of Exclusive, Brown's albums have not been well received commercially or by music critics, with the exception of X, which received a normalized rating of 63. Brown's seventh studio album Royalty was released on December 18, 2015.

 

Apart from his work in the music industry, Brown has pursued an acting career. In 2007, he made his on-screen feature film debut in Stomp the Yard, and appeared as a guest on the television series The O.C.. Other films Brown has appeared in, include This Christmas (2007), Takers (2010), Think Like a Man (2012), and Battle of the Year (2013). Throughout his career, Brown has won several awards, including two NAACP Image Awards, three American Music Awards and fourteen BET Awards. - Wikipedia

Chris Brown before he went awful :o

All these RnB numbers aged terribly but this one is a jam!

You Got The Love is magnificent! What a song.

this has aged the best from his early material!

Gosh, Chris Brown's actually been plaguing us a whole decade :/

 

I'll give him this one though, this was quite a good one from him, nice production.

Chris Brown before he went awful :o

 

There was actually a time :o

 

Well, this isn't great but I don't have a reason to hate it either, it's just okay. No sign of what he'd turn into.

The 1997 release of you've got the love was better imo.

But the band did Affect the chart on numerous occasions quite long :D

Hewitt was fired from the band in 2007 and was replaced the following year by Steve Forrest, who left in 2015.

love You Got the Love, guess I'm more used to hearing Flo's version lately

 

never liked Chris Brown and Run It was poor r'n'b

 

 

Ahh Placebo. Good effort from then, although no classic.

Run It is an awful start for Chris Brown, I hope he gets better over time

oh Placebo!!!!!!! Love them!!!!!!! This is the lead from album 5 and was pretty good, from there it's all been downhill sadly... but were one of the best UK bands of the 90s-mid 00s

First time listening to this one and I'm not that convinced tbh
