The Virginia native followed with the successful multi-platinum releases of Exclusive (2007), Graffiti (2009) and F.A.M.E. (2011), which won Brown his first ever Grammy Award in 2012 for Best R&B Album. With the release of FORTUNE, the singer has racked up worldwide total album sales of over 8 million to date; total worldwide song sales of nearly 30 million. Adding the coveted Grammy Award to his collection, Brown is the recipient of 42 awards, including a recent BET Award for Best Male R&B Artist and Billboard Music Award for Top R&B Artist.
