Chris Brown Takes Stab at Public Absolution, Rewrites History With New Single


Well, what are the chances? Just two days after Rihanna debuted her new single, chronic one-upper (among other things) Chris Brown has rolled out a new song of his own.

And while those looking to link Rihanna's "Russian Roulette" to her Brown beatdown did so courtesy of tenuous lyrical metaphors and heavy speculation, Brown isn't making his listeners work quite so hard with "Crawl."

Interestingly, while RiRi came out fighting, draping herself in barbed wire and peppering her dark tune with gunshots, Brown—still deep in character and career rehabilitation—went the CĂ©line Dion route, releasing a slow jam that paints him as nothing more than a hopeful man who just so happens to be unlucky-in-love.

Well, in his defense, you try finding something that rhymes with "girlfriend-beater."

"Everybody says we're through / I hope you haven't said it too," he sings in his second new track. "So where do we go from here with all this fear in our eyes?"

Presumably, he means other than to the side of the road to pick up trash.

"And where can love take us now," he continues. "We've been so far down / We can still touch the sky.

"I need one more chance / We can still have it all…So let's crawl, crawl, crawl / Back to love."

Whether his attempt at musical absolution manages to crawl up the charts remains to be seen. So which star wins in the battle of the comebacks—Rihanna or Chris?
