Among his favourites are Michael Jackson, Sam Cooke, Stevie Wonder, Donnie Hathaway, Anita Baker, and Aretha Franklin.

For his first album, Jive Records hooked him up with hot producer Scott Storch, the man behind such hits as 50 Cent's "Candy Shop" and Beyonce's "Naughty Girl." Chris Brown's first single "Run It!", featuring Juelz Santana, began to climb the charts in September 2005. The first album, titled Chris Brown , was released at the end of November.

22. Lyrics Chorus Tell Me How I’m supposed to breathe with no air Can’t live can’t breathe with no air that's how I feel whenever you ain’t there Its No Air No Air Got me out here and the water so deep Tell me how you gonna be without me if you ain’t here I just can’t breathe It’s No Air No Air No air air ohhhh No air air noooo No air air ohhhh No air air Chris Brown I Walked I Ran I Jumped I Flew Right off the ground To float to you There's no gravity To hold me down For’real The typical ‘narrative’ style music videos usually contain themes of two partners longing to be with each other; generally used in R’n’B and Pop music videos. In this case, both the male and female want to be with each other. When they are without each other, they have “no air,” which is a metaphor used to show how they depend on each others love. “ There's no gravity, to hold me down,” Chris Brown, clearly expresses how there is nothing to hold him down or prevent him from loving.
