Chris Brown threatens to retire from making music!

"I'm tired of being famous for a mistake I made when I was 18"- Chris Brown

Chris Brown told his Twitter followers that he is retiring from making music after his sixth studio album X comes out later this month.

 

In a series of cryptic tweets, the 24-year-old seemed to suggest that his desire to quit his career as a singer and performer stemmed from his tumultuous relationship with Rihanna.

 

 




The recording artist said on Tuesday that he was 'tired of being famous for a mistake' he made when he was 18, referencing the assault charges filed against him by on-off girlfriend Rihanna in 2009.

 

Brown's five-year probation for the RIhanna assault was revoked by a Los Angeles Court after an alleged hit-and-run in May, bringing his troubled past back into the limelight.
During his Twitter rant on Tuesday, he wrote: 'Don't worry mainstream America. After this X album, it'll probably be my last album.'

And then in what appeared to be an overt reference to the Rihanna assault he tweeted: 'Being famous is amazing when it's for ur music and talent. I'm tired of being famous for a mistake I made when i was 18. I'm cool & over it!'

In 2009 Brown's music was pulled from many radio playlists, in an unofficial ban, due to his criminal charges.
The singer's current legal troubles stem from his hit-and-run incident, where he failed to hand over his driver's license and insurance information following a traffic accident.

The Los Angeles District Court said that Brown violated the terms of his probation after he allegedly left the scene of the accident after rear-ending a woman's Mercedes-Benz in May.
A Los Angeles judge revoked probation for Chris Brown stemming from his 2009 assault of then-girfriend Rihanna, the terms of which requires him to stay out of trouble and follow the law.

The next court hearing for the hit-and-run is set for Aug. 15, and he will also have to show up to court for a separate probation hearing, according to Gossip Cop.
Meanwhile, Brown's apparently final studio album X hits stores on August 20.
