Fortune is the fifthstudio album by American singerChris Brown. It was released in the UK on July 2, 2012,[1] and in the US on July 3, 2012, throughRCA Records. Production was handled by Brown himself and several record producers, includingthe Underdogs,Polow da Don,Brian Kennedy,the Runners,the Messengers,H-Money,Danja, andBenny Benassi. The album also features several guest appearances, includingBig Sean,Wiz Khalifa,Nas,Sevyn Streeter, andKevin McCall.
Originally scheduled for release six months after the release of Brown's fourth studio albumF.A.M.E. on March 22, 2011,Fortune was pushed back several times before it was finally given a release date in July 2012. The album's aesthetics feature a heavy usage ofblue, suggesting a futuristic mood, that detaches itself from the graffiti imagery of Brown's precedent two albums. The music consists ofR&B andpop, containing pronounced elements ofelectronic music, while the lyrical content concentrates onsex,promiscuity,hedonism,clubbing andromantic love. The album received generally negative reviews frommusic critics, several of whom panned the lyrical content, though some critics were complimentary towards the production. Despite the negative reception, it was nominated forBest Urban Contemporary Album at the55th Grammy Awards.
Fortune had international chart success, debuting at number one on the USBillboard 200, selling 135,000 copies in its first week and becoming Brown's second number one album in the US, as well as his fifth consecutive top ten album. The album also debuted at number one in the UK, the Netherlands, and New Zealand, while fellow top ten positions were attained on charts in Switzerland, Scotland, Japan, Ireland, France, Canada and Australia.
Preceding the release ofFortune was thelead single "Turn Up the Music", which reached number ten on the USBillboard Hot 100, and number one on theUK Singles Chart. "Sweet Love" and "Till I Die" were released as the second and third singles, respectively. "Don't Wake Me Up" was released as the fourth single and reached the top ten in several countries. "Don't Judge Me" was released as the fifth and final single. To promote the album, Brown made several award show and televised appearances across America.
Originally, Brown wanted his fourth studio albumF.A.M.E. to be adouble-disc, consisting of 25-30 tracks. However,Jive Records declined to release the album in such format, leading to a reduction to 13 tracks. Following the release ofF.A.M.E., Brown planned a sequel titledFortune, intended as a new album featuring new material along with songs recorded during theF.A.M.E. sessions, planning on releasing it six months after the previous album.[2] Ultimately, he chose to invest more time into developingFortune as a standalone project.
Work forFortune began in mid-2011, withKevin McCall revealing that he had been collaborating "heavily" with Brown for an upcoming album.[3] Later in September 2011, producerDavid Banner explained that the idea of the album was to create mostly material that reflected a more club-oriented style that would "change the way people look at R&B".[4] On January 7, 2012, Brown tweeted that there were only two weeks left of recording sessions for the album: "Last two weeks of me finishingFortune! I'm excited for all the fans to hear my real music".[5] The tweet was soon followed up by another from Brown, with him tweeting: "Dub step records on my album sounding crazy!!!!".[5] However, the tweet was later removed, suggesting that Brown gave away too much details aboutFortune, and its working continued for some months.[5] Brown later toldMTV in June 2012 that with the album he wanted to "give different textures, expressing mostly fun and sex appeal, but also giving pieces of maturity at the same time". He also said that musically he wanted to create "avideogame-inspired, futuristic and electronic atmosphere", showcasing his R&B roots, along with hip-hop and pop flavors.[6]
In addition to recording, it was revealed in January 2012 that Brown was in the studio working on the album withAsher Roth,Nas,Wiz Khalifa,will.i.am, andKid Sister.[7][8] In an interview withMTV News, producerHarvey Mason, Jr., half of production duothe Underdogs, who co-produced "Turn Up the Music", spoke more about the album, saying "TheFortune record isF.A.M.E to the next level. He's really being innovative with some of the music, taking pieces of other genres and integrating them intopop and R&B, which I think is really cool. Vocally, he sounds amazing; he's really, really coming into his own as a singer, as you'll hear in the song "Free Run" we did together".[9] Producer Damon Thomas, the other half of the duo, added "The only way I can describe Chris and what he's doin' with this record that he's making is that he's this generation's Michael [Jackson]".[9] On February 29, 2012, Brown tweeted "I hope this album will inspire all my fans to live life to the fullest".[10] During a radio interview with Atlanta'sHot 107.9 in March 2012, rapper2 Chainz revealed that he will be appearing as a guest vocalist onFortune,[11] however the track he was featured on did not make the final track listing.[12] In May 2012, producerWilliam Orbit stated that the track "Don't Wake Me Up" that he produced forMadonna's albumMDNA (2012) was given to Brown forFortune, despite Madonna wanting it, because of timing issues.[13]
Primarily,Fortune is an R&B and pop album.[14][15][16][17][18] The album also includes elements ofclub music, such asEDM anddubstep.[14][19] Following thedance-pop opener "Turn Up the Music",Fortune opens up withsynth-rap infused songs like "Bassline", "Till I Die" and "Mirage". The album continues alternating R&B songs like "2012", "Sweet Love" and "Strip", with pop tracks like "Stuck on Stupid", "4 Years Old" and "Party Hard".[19] The album'selectronic elements are highlighted by theautotune vocal editing of different tracks, but mostly appear throughout its production. Notable examples include thehouse-driven track "Turn Up the Music", the blend of electrosynthesizers with R&B music on "Wait for You" and "Sweet Love", theelectropop production of "Remember My Name", the pronouncedEDM characteristics of "Don't Wake Me Up" and thedancehall-infused "Trumpet Lights", and thedubstep instrumentation of "Key 2 Your Heart" and "Bassline".[17]
Lyrically,Fortune includes several songs about sexual encounters, most notably "2012", "Tell Somebody", "Biggest Fan" and "Sweet Love".[17][20] The character that Brown portrays for the majority of the album is a narcissistic one, that brags about his own favorite qualities of himself, as well as his lifestyle, emphasizing how these things ensure him the attraction of women.[17][20] Romantic adventures are spoke by Brown throughout the album on tracks like "Free Run" and "Stuck on Stupid", where he sets aside hisbraggadocio, to open up about his love for another.[21] Other episodes ofvulnerability on the album are "4 Years Old", where he reflects on how his richness and fame can't compare to the thought of love, and "Don't Wake Me Up", that finds Brown clinging on to a past love, which he can now only experience while he's asleep.[22] As well as explicit sex, vanity and genuine love, the lyrical content ofFortune also focuses on clubbing,[19] main theme of songs like "Turn Up the Music", "Trumpet Lights" and "Till I Die".[19]
The album's official cover (standard version) was revealed on February 29, 2012.[23] The cover art was shot in January of the same year by the photography team Steven Gomillion and Dennis Leupold.[24] On the album cover, a light shines down on Brown, who poses against a blue backdrop, dressed in a blue "sleek, slim-fitting suit with a skinny tie and thick black framed glasses",[25] while the word "Fortune" appears behind him in different languages.[25] Brown and his art director Courtney Walter came up with the idea of usinghieroglyphics for the album's title.[24] In an interview by telephone with Erik Parker of CBS Local, Gomillion said Brown "knew before the last album came out what this one would look like. He thinks so far ahead".[24] Regarding the use of the color blue, Gomillion said "The funny thing about that blue is it basically just happened. It matched the suit and it gives a kind of futuristic vibe. You'll see blue throughout the [album] packaging".[24] Sarah Brotherton of MTV News wrote that the cover shows "a more mature, sleek side" to Brown.[26] Becky Bain ofIdolator noted that Brown "seems to have finally dropped his beloved graffiti imagery and is going for a futuristic vibe".[27] A reviewer forRap-Up described it as a "slick cover".[23] Alex Loinaz ofE! Online compared Brown's look to that of actorsKeanu Reeves inThe Matrix films, andColin Firth inA Single Man (2009).[28]
In January 2011, Brown told fans on Twitter that he was planning on releasing his then studio album,F.A.M.E. (2011), as adouble disc because he recorded too many songs for one disc and therefore planned on releasing a second disc titled,Fortune.[2] However, during a listening party forF.A.M.E. on March 14, 2011, Brown announced that he would be releasing theFortune disc in six months.[29] He later decided to prolong its working, consequently postponing its release. In May 2011, the songs "Fools With You" and "Treading Waters" leaked on the internet, with Brown revealing his intention to put those tracks on the album, by tweeting: "Another song fromFortune was leaked! I'm not leaking the records! Hope y'all like it!".[5] In July, another track that was supposed to be on the record, titled "Open Road (I Love Her)", was leaked, with the singer later tweeting: "If the whole song doesn’t leak then it’s going onFortune! I have so many songs that I’ve recorded in my opinion that are sick. I just really hope people appreciate the diversity onFortune".[5] On August 23, 2011,RCA Music Group announced it was disbandingJive Records along withArista Records andJ Records. With the shutdown,Fortune is now being released on theRCA Records brand.[30] During an interview withRap-Up magazine in September 2011, Kevin McCall revealed that the album was being pushed back for an early 2012 release.[3] Then two months later, Jive Records France announced via Twitter that the album would be released in March 2012. On October 27, 2011, Brown announced via his officialTwitter account that "Strip" and "Biggest Fan" would serve as the twolead singles fromFortune. However, "Biggest Fan" was not released as a single, and "One Of Those Nights" featuringwill.i.am, was planned to be released as the following single on January 31, 2012, but ended up never being released.[31] Following the online premiere of "Turn Up the Music" on January 26, 2012, several websites, includingMTV News andBillboard magazine, reported that this would be the lead single from the album, while "Strip" served as abuzz single. In February 2012, the initial tracklist of the album was announced.[32][33] On March 1, 2012, RCA Records confirmed thatFortune would be released in the US on May 8, 2012, as both standard and deluxe editions.[10] A delay was announced in April.[34] The official track listing for both the standard and deluxe editions ofFortune was revealed on May 29, 2012.[12] The album was set to feature fourteen tracks on the standard edition, with an additional five tracks on the deluxe edition.[12] On July 3, 2012,Fortune was released through RCA Records.[35]

Fortune was met with generally negative reviews from music critics. AtMetacritic, the album received anaverage score of 38, based on 14 reviews.[81]
AllMusic's Andy Kellman criticized the album's lyrical content as "shameless" and found "few dimensions" in its music, calling it "an album of unapologetic swashbuckling" that is "saved ... from being a disaster" by some of its production.[21] Kyle Anderson ofEntertainment Weekly found the songwriting perfunctory and commented that the album "furthers the uncomfortable and frustrating disconnect between Brown's hotheaded personal life and his oddly edgeless musical persona".[19] Jon Caramanica ofThe New York Times criticized Brown's "brazenness" and stated, "Listening to Mr. Brown at the deepest level balances aesthetic pleasures, when they happen, with superegolike self-protection against aligning oneself too closely with someone who's done such heinous things".[87]
Hermione Hoby ofThe Observer panned the album's songs as "ugly stuff".[83] Jesse Fairfax ofHipHopDX foundFortune to be "a good album of grandiose self-assured posturing", but he said that it's "kind of below to what Brown could bring to the table".[84][14] Evan Rytlewski ofThe A.V. Club criticized Brown's "no apologies mantra" but ended up saying that "The truth is in the eye of the beholder, and with easily accessible albums likeFortune, there will continue to be a lot of eyes on Chris Brown".[20]
James Reed ofThe Boston Globe complimented "Don't Wake Me Up" as "a thumping club cut that's irresistible on an otherwise forgettable album".[88] Barry Walters ofSpin commented that, apart from "Don't Wake Me Up",Fortune "makes it easy for Chris Brown's haters and harder on his many fans", writing that "there's more than the usual number of midtempo ballads that once again mix sex-fantasy titillation with his defensiveness".[86]Chicago Tribune writerGreg Kot called the album "a pure-pop candy cane, meant to be enjoyed, consumed and forgotten", commenting that "its mixture of smut, vulnerability, menace and dancefloor celebration".[17] In a mixed review, Randall Roberts of theLos Angeles Times likened the album's trendy musical style to a product'sshelf life and attributed it to "Brown's reflex of curbing his creative impulses at nearly every turn, with a few killer exceptions, and showing a conservatism unbecoming such a self-styled renegade".[82]
Fortune garnered a nomination for Favorite Soul/R&B Album at the2012 American Music Awards, but lost toRihanna'sTalk That Talk.[89][90] The album was nominated for World's Best Album at the 2012World Music Awards.[91] It earned a nomination forBest Urban Contemporary Album at the2013 Grammy Awards, though ultimately lost toFrank Ocean'sChannel Orange.[92] At the2013Billboard Music Awards,Fortune was nominated for Top R&B Album.[93]
