Chris Brown Talks Rihanna & New Album on 'Today Show'

The 23-year-old singer made an appearance on The Today Show the next day to chat about his relationship with Rihanna and his upcoming album.

“I’ve been humbled by the whole experience,” Chris said. “From me losing everything, you know, to me having to regain public opinion or whatever it is — but most importantly, you know, knowing that what I did was totally wrong and having to kind of deal with myself and kind of forgive myself in the same breath and being able to apologize to, you know, Rihanna and be that man that can be who is a man, you know?”

“I think it’s just me proving myself once again,” Chris added. “Knowing that what I did was wrong, and never doing it again. So as far as me and (Rihanna) are concerned, she knows my heart, and I know her heart. So I’m not really focused on the negative.”

“For me, it’s about proving myself to my fans,” he said about releasing his album X in August. “The only thing I can do is please my family, myself, and please her, you know, and my fans.”
