Chris Brown is not entertaining the boycott chatter, and he made that very clear on Instagram. The R&B superstar hopped on his story Sunday with a long, all caps rant aimed straight at the so called “rage bait pages” and “fake woke” accounts that have been shaming fans for wanting to pull up to The R&B Tour, his upcoming co headlining stadium run with Usher.
“The funniest and the weirdest sht ever to me is the fact that people have the option to come to my tour and the option not to,” Breezy wrote. He doubled down by reminding the timeline that anyone who actually messes with him and Usher will be in the building and predicted the run will be PACKED just like his 2025 trek. Then he zoomed in on the specific demographic he found most amusing. “BUT THE KARENS, and the self hating hoes be making me LAUGH. I CANT WAIT TO RUB THIS SHT IN YALL FACE,” he capped, with three crying laughing emojis to seal it. He even gave the male hate a pass, writing that “the dudes hating, I can understand that (thinking we gone steal ya girl and sh*t),” but the women fronting on his behalf were getting filed under comedy.
The man has receipts to back the confidence. His Breezy Bowl XX World Tour, which wrapped last October, became the highest grossing tour ever by a solo Black American male artist, pulling in nearly $300 million and 2 million fans across North America, Europe, and the UK. Now he is teaming up with Usher for the Raymond and Brown Tour, a Live Nation produced stadium run that kicks off June 26 in Denver at Empower Field at Mile High and wraps December 11 in Tampa at Raymond James Stadium. Demand has already been so loud that promoters tacked on extra nights at SoFi Stadium in LA, Mercedes Benz Stadium in Atlanta, NRG Stadium in Houston, and MetLife in New Jersey. General onsale opens today at noon local time at RaymondAndBrownTour.com, and the album rollout is right behind it, with Brown’s 12th studio album BROWN dropping May 8.
Whether the haters are clutching pearls in the comments or quietly checking out through a secondary email, the math is the math. Two of the most decorated R&B catalogs of the last two decades sharing the same stadium stage is not the kind of show that needs a pity sale. The Karens are about to find out who the audience actually is, and Breezy already has the receipt printed and ready to wave.
