djzyonsevenI created this mix last year, and ever since finishing Part One, I have been working on Part Two off and on throughout this year.
Right now, I am extending and remixing a couple of tracks from Chris Brown’s new album, BROWN…
That I plan on adding to Part Two.
I am not just dropping the songs into the mix and calling it a day either.
Y’all know me better than that.
I have been rearranging vocals, stretching certain sections, rebuilding transitions, and figuring out how to make everything flow the way I hear it in my head. 🎧🔥
But before we get to Part Two, let me officially welcome you to Chris Brown + Features – Part One.
I have really enjoyed putting this Chris Brown Mix Series together.
Between working on my other mixes, creating a few special projects for some lucky folks, and occasionally disappearing down one of my musical rabbit holes, this series has quietly become one of my favorite little obsessions.
Now, anybody who knows Chris Brown’s catalog already understands the problem.
The man has a mountain of music.
Albums on top of albums.
Hits on top of hits.
Remixes, collaborations, guest appearances, and enough features to make a Spotify playlist start sweating. 😅
Trying to decide which songs deserved a place in this series was pure chaos.
Glorious chaos, but chaos nonetheless.
Every time I thought I had the playlist figured out, I would remember another song.
Then another feature would pop into my head.
Then I would hear a track I had not played in a while and start rearranging everything all over again.
That is the blessing and the headache of working with a catalog this deep.
I wanted Part One to feature Run It, which started his recording career and became his first No. 1 single.💽
The song introduced a teenage Chris Brown to the world and quickly made it clear that this young dude could sing, dance, and command a stage and record. 🕺🏾🎶
From there, I wanted the mix to move through different stages of his career while also spotlighting some of the collaborations and featured appearances that helped turn his catalog into the giant musical maze it is today.
After months of twisting, turning, trimming, blending, and vibing through his music like a mad scientist with a groove addiction, I finally cracked the code.
Or at least I cracked enough of it to stop moving the songs around every fifteen minutes.
I created the perfect list of Chris Brown tracks.
I eventually mapped out three separate mixes.
I’ll even have something from BROWN in Part 2.🔥
But this is Part One.
It is the beginning of a musical journey through twenty years of records from one of the most prolific R&B artists of his generation.
Whether you have followed Chris Brown since Run It!
Or discovered him somewhere later in his story.
There should be something in this mix that will make you Turn It Up The Music.
Start moving, and Go Crazy.
Try to remember exactly where you were when one of these songs first hit.
