Playlist • 22 tracks(s)

Fortune is the fifth studio album by American singer Chris Brown. It was released on July 3, 2012, through RCA Records. Production was handled by Brown himself and several record producers, including the Underdogs, Polow da Don, Brian Kennedy, the Runners, the Messengers, H-Money, Danja, and Benny Benassi. The album also features several guest appearances, including Big Sean, Wiz Khalifa, Nas, Sevyn Streeter, and Kevin McCall. Originally scheduled for release six months after the release of Brown's fourth studio album F.A.M.E. on March 22, 2011, Fortune was pushed back several times before it was finally given a release date in July 2012. The album's aesthetics feature a heavy usage of blue, suggesting a futuristic mood, that detaches itself from the graffiti imagery of Brown's precedent two albums. The music consists of R&B and pop, containing pronounced elements of electronic music, while the lyrical content concentrates on sex, promiscuity, hedonism, clubbing and romantic love. The album received generally negative reviews from music critics, several of whom panned the lyrical content, though some critics were complimentary towards the production. From Wikipedia (
