Without a doubt, the young star’s sentence for assaulting his then-girlfriend, Rihanna, is not limited to that which was handed down in court.
Today, some stores are refusing to sell Brown’s latest album, Graffiti, as a stand against the violent attack by the 20-year-old singer. The assault took place in February, while Rihanna and Brown were on their way to the Grammy Awards.
Brown is now furious at his apparent blacklisting. "I’m tired of this s**t. major stores are blackballing my CD. Not stocking the shelves and lying to customers. what the f**k do I gotta do? "I’m not biting my tongue about s**t else… The industry can kiss my a*s (sic)," said Brown.
Since the incident with Rihanna, Brown swore that he has learned a lesson, and vowed to not make the same mistake again. He revealed via Twitter, "I’m only 20. This is a bad mistake I made, but one that I’m not denying nor running away from. I don’t believe I should let it shatter my life."
