Chris Brown working on country music for next album

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Artist News, Upcoming Releases, Country, R&B / Soul

Chris Brown is currently recording a country song. The 20-year-old Brown, who has pleaded not guilty to assaulting on/off girlfriend Rihanna in February, is believed to be working on a new track called ‘Trapped in a Dream’ which may be included on his next album.

Chris’ producer Robert Allen said: “Maybe we’ll see an appearance from country star Carrie Underwood or someone like that. It’s that kind of song. It’s just feeling like you don’t want that dream to go away. Everybody has a dream and you’re in it, but you wake up and you’re like, ‘Oh, my God.’ You feel like you’re still in that dream.”
