Chris Brown Speaks On Drugs & Drake

(Shawn) Chris Brown sat down with Ebro, Peter Rosenberg and Laura Styles at New York radio station’s Hot 97 for an “Ebro In The Morning” segment that was published today (October 31). Ebro detailed his initial encounter with the Virginia singer, who was a young teen showcasing his talent at a Planet Hollywood at the time. Ebro also added that he was the person who got Juelz Santana to do a feature on the R&B artist’s first hit, “Run It!”. During the interview Brown touched on his drug use throughout his career and how him and Drake squashed their beef.
Brown spoke on how his use of different drugs has effected him in the past.

” I was off the syrup, the xanax,” said the 25-year-old. “That’s the hood cocktail right there and I’m not ashamed to talk about it. A lot of our youth is doing it now, thinking it’s the cool thing to do.  I don’t knock anyone’s hustle but I just feel for me it wasn’t conducive to me. I was falling asleep on video sets, cussing people out, crazy stuff.”

Chris also spoke on how he and Drake solved their issues with each other.

“They were kind of hesitant because they didn’t know what our temperature would be with each other.” Chris said he was all for it and was happy to make peace. “Let’s just do something funny and make light of the situation. It shows growth and maturity. “

Elsewhere in the interview, they discuss Brown’s 2009 altercation with Rihanna. Brown says that he took a lot of bad PR advice during that time. “Honestly I kind of just listen to the wrong— ‘OK, we need to do this PR strategy, and do this,’ and I just wanted to be like, ‘F*** ya’ll’ and that’s how I felt because its my personal life and I’m going through a troubled time,” he says.
