After what seems like an eternity, Chris Brown has finally released his long-awaited sixth studio album X. The talented singer was continuing to battle his many legal issues when his number 1 hit “Loyal” was blowing up the charts, and since his return home, it’s been nothing but music. Mostly.

This album includes some very dope features including the likes of Kendrick Lamar, Trey Songz, Usher, Rick Ross, Lil Wayne, Tyga, R. Kelly, Akon, Jhene Aiko, Brandy and more. And while his off-the-mic issues continue to prosper, you can tell that Breezy’s focused on this album and that the constant delays for X were seemingly worth it. Plus, it’s clear that he’s maturing in multiple ways; he even squashed his beef with Drake, which most of us thought would never happen.

With that being said, we return today with our latest First Listen, where we pick 5 tracks from the album that really stood out to us. While it would be in your best interest to give X a full listen, click the following pages to see what songs really caught our eye first.
