Chris Brown has responded to a lawsuit from former manager Mike G with a lengthy Instagram rant, as per his usual tradition. After the manager who was brought on to help clean up Brown’s image accused Brown of “brutally attacking” him in a “drug-fueled” rage, Breezy took to social media to let loose on him.
In a caps lock crusade against the lawsuit and people who try to drag him down, Brown accused Mike G of opportunism and merely trying to make money off of him.
“Notice how many shows and journeys I’ve gone through and the positive,” he wrote. “Then look at the level of bullsh*t that came after. Cmon, ( SEE THE PATTERN).”
Brown added that he didn’t need Mike G’s help to become famous.
“I BECAME CHRIS BROWN THE DAY I LEFT MY HOUSE On A GREYHOUND BUS TO NEW YORK TO PURSUE MUSIC. I NEVER NEEDED ANYONE FOR MY TALENT,” he said, before stumbling on a fairly funny point. “PR??? PLEASE TELL ME FANS, DO YOU REALLY THINK THAT ‘CHRIS BROWN’ HAS HAD A GOOD PUBLICIST?”
He also briefly mentioned Suge Knight’s lawsuit against him before calling all of the lawsuits “calculated sh*t” and claiming he was the victim of “extortion.”
“YOU WONT MICHAEL JACKSON ME!!!!!” he wrote to close the post, making the 10,000th time he’s explicitly referenced the King of Pop in his career one of the strangest.
Brown repeated throughout the post that he plans to stay silent on the issue from now on. Given the level of anger in this Instagram post and Brown’s tumultuous history, we can’t say we’re holding our breath.
