Singer Chris Brown is in full swing of his collaborative “One of Them Ones Tour” with rapper Lil Baby. A hot topic on social media since the tour’s start has been about Breezy’s VIP meet-and-greet packages allegedly costing concert-goers $1,000.
The meet-and-greets on tour stops have also gained virality on the internet due to the types of photos that he has been taking with fans who purchase the package.
Chris recently took to his Instagram story to explain exactly why he is choosing to take such notable photos with his fans.
“PSA!!! When [artists] (everyone) do concerts, they all have something called a VIP package. I haven’t done meet and greets in over [seven] years… I have the coolest fans on the planet .. I appreciate the fuck outta them. These are memories that will last with them forever,” said the singer.
Brown went on to say how he will continue to go all out for his fans and give them a memorable experience, since there would be no him without them.
Fellow artist and tour guest performer, Bleu, took to social media as well in defense of Chris. “1000$ for a life long memory/moment ain’t bad. Y’all ain’t gone have no memories when y’all get old only thing y’all gone remember is paying bills,” he said in a tweet.
The “No Guidance” singer has recently released his 11th solo studio album, Breezy, but was not afraid to admit how nervous he still seems to get before performing.
“I still get nervous. I’m anxious about it, I have sleepless nights. I’m thinking of ideas, he said during an appearance on Big Boy. “Because it’s the excitement, it’s adrenaline, it’s like a give and take. If you don’t understand that… you know energy, you can feel energy.”
He also added, “Like, when I get in work mode or thinking about it, I’m also just putting it in my mind, ‘How are the fans gonna perceive this?’ And say, ‘You know what, I didn’t waste my money coming to this muthafucka. I actually had a good time,’ you know what I’m saying? So there’s a lot that goes into that. I just don’t plot it out and say, ‘Look, we have to do this.’ But it’s something internally that I work on.”
