Chad Taylor of City View, central Iowa's independent weekly, is a writer of few words. He recently reviewed Chris Brown's Fortune album and concisely wrote, "Chris Brown hits women. Enough said." The laconic review, in reference to Chris Brown's assault of then-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009, has gone viral and has been picked up by gossip, and music sites like Perez Hilton and AOL's The Boombox.

Many fans applauded Chad's harsh take on the singer. "Finally, the media get it right, well reviewed Chad Taylor" tweeted one while one added that it was an "impeccable review" and yet another said, "A fantastic, short & honest review." Chad posted on Twitter today about the album, "I got it for free and it wasn't worth the price."

Chris Brown Says Fortune Album Will Not Be His Final Release

Fortune has received several poor reviews since it was released in late June. RapFix shared some of the these lukewarm reviews. "Fortune is a pure-pop candy cane, meant to be enjoyed, consumed and forgotten" said Greg Kot of the Chicago Tribune and "What's worse, the album doesn't resolve, or even ask, any of the fascinating questions about what makes Brown tick" said Kyle Anderson of Entertainment Weekly.

      Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?

      NelsonG posted a topic in General News,

      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
