Based on the runaway success of his first single, "Run It," it was clear that 16-year-old Chris Brown was on to something. The song, which rides a pulsing hip-hop beat with Brown's smoothly styled R&B vocals coming in over the top, shot straight to the top of the charts, virtually guaranteeing an ecstatic reception for his full-length self-titled debut. Brown lights upon a clever formula by combining edgy tracks with a sultry urban-contemporary delivery, and bringing to that mixture the fresh-faced innocence of teen pop acts. Like Usher, whom he resembles in some respects, Brown is likely to make 15-year-old girls swoon, yet there is a vitality here (thanks in part to high-end production by Scott Storch, the Underdogs, and others) and a musical sophistication that promises even better things to come from this young upstart. This DualDisc presents the CD version of CHRIS BROWN on one side and a DVD version with surround-sound mix and bonus video material (including music videos, a behind-the-scenes featurette, interviews, and live performance footage) on the other.
