Will it ever really be reasonable for Chris to write a song that portrays him as a victim in this situation? Absolutely not, because nobody except a die-hard Chris Brown fan would ever have the audacity to label him a victim in any sense, particularly after he himself plead guilty and admitted his actions were not appropriate. So tracks like Famous Girl are just horribly ill-conceived from the get-go and it is difficult to look past the sort of twisted logic that was used to write those lyrics.

This. The actual 1 star thing is overdramatic but a lot of the reasoning behind the songs they explain are totally justified. "Lucky Me" and "Famous Girl" are very ill-conceived and I think that's people's main problem with him. It's not even about him doing what he did, it's his seeming lack of remorse in everything he's done since then that I think most people are still blacklisting him.
Everything aside, it's a decent album...a grower for sure. Still prefer his last album but there's a lot of single potential.
