Chris Brown Says He May Quit Music

If his tweets are to be believed, we may not have Chris Brown to push around much longer.

Though the controversial R&B star has a new album coming at the end of the month called X, he announced on Twitter that he probably only has one other album left in him. "Don't worry mainstream America," he wrote, "After this X album, it'll probably be my last album." He followed that up with the statement, "Being famous is amazing when it's for ur music and talent. I'm tired of being famous for a mistake I made when i was 18. I'm cool & over it!"

The "mistake" mentioned in that tweet is, presumably, his arrest for domestic assault after attacking then-girlfriend Rihanna the night before the Grammy Awards in 2009. (It should be noted, of course, that Brown was actually 19 when that incident occurred, but math is hard.) And he's not done making mistakes—just yesterday, Brown turned himself into authorities in Los Angeles to be booked for a hit-and-run case against him.

Though this retirement idea probably won't stick (the only stars whose retirements mean less than musicians are professional wrestlers), it should be noted that Brown's nearly 13 million Twitter followers have been getting quite a stream of downers recently, including melancholy musings like "Home don't feel like home. Too many empty rooms" and "Aspire to be great and the person you wanna be. Don't conform because ur worth is more than any money or status. We live. We die."
