Might fatherhood truly have changed Chris Brown?
The often-angry, bitter, occasionally violent singer has announced to fans that he has a very nice gesture in mind when it comes to his new album.
Brown will be donating a portion of all “Royalty” proceeds to charity.
“The holidays are all about giving back, so this Christmas, from now until Christmas, if you order the album, pre-order the album, one dollar of every album sold will go to Children’s Miracle Network hospital,” the 26-year-old singer said in an Instagram video last Friday.
“So please do your part. Give back!”
Brown, of course, has named his latest record after his daughter, Royalty.
Last month, the singer unveiled the artwork for his album, which features a photo of a shirtlss Brown cradling his little girl.
“I honestly never knew I could love someone as strong as I do,” Brown said of his child back in May. “I’m gonna give her the world.”
Brown shares his daughter with ex-girlfriend Nia Guzman and won joint custody of his little her in September.
His seventh studio album, meanwhile, will be released on December 18.
We’d still prefer to just give money directly to charity that pad this woman-beater’s pockets with it, but hey.
We can at least acknowledge this is a nice gesture by Brown.
