CD Description
With its muscle-flexing attitude, thumping beats, and guestspot from T Pain, "Kiss Kiss," the club single on Chris Brown's EXCLUSIVE, announces that the teenaged singer is growing up fast. He's graduating from the province of cutesy `tween pop to big league urban contemporary, joining the ranks ofUsher and R. Kelley with his sexy, slinky jams. Part of EXCLUSIVE's grown-up sound comes from top-shelf production, courtesy of Scott Storch, the Underdogs, and Will i. Am, and its roster of guests, which includes Game, Big Boi, and Kanye West. But it's Brown's command of breezy, mid-tempo ballads ("With You"), head-nodding, slow-rolling grooves ("Down"), and hands-in-the-air bangers ("Wall to Wall") that makes EXCLUSIVE a first-rate R&B ride.
