I am not making this up. Check out Mr. Simmons' blog article, "Chris Brown: When Fame Snatches Your Freedom" at
Global Grind.
SMH. Why did he feel moved to write an apologia for this fool? Yeah, Chris can dance, but there are a million other great dancers out there. His singing and rapping skills were never all that great either. As the father of two young girls, Simmons should know better, but he doesn't seem to care how his support of Chris looks to women. He even threw shade by saying that Chris is "suffering" and comparing Chris' issues to that of misbehaving former Disney stars.
Um, Lindsay, Britney and Miley never bashed someone's face in. I guess men in hip-hop stick together.
