Chris Brown – Fortune

Fortune is the fifth studio album by American singer Chris Brown. It was released on July 3, 2012, through RCA Records. Production is handled by Brown and several record producers, including the Underdogs, Polow da Don, Brian Kennedy, the Runners, the Messengers, Danja and Fuego. The album also features several guest appearances, including Big Sean, Wiz Khalifa and Nas.

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. The music consists of R&B and pop, while the lyrical content is mostly sexual. The album received generally negative reviews from music critics, several of whom panned the lyrical content, though some critics were complementary towards the production. It received a nomination for Best Urban Contemporary Album at the 55th Grammy Awards.
