Chris Brown is as legendary as Michael Jackson + Tupac, says Nick Cannon...

Okay, remember when Nick Cannon was actually married to a *real* musical legend? You'd think his views on what qualifies as legendary would have been of higher standard. 

He believes that like Michael Jackson and Tupac, embattled star Chris Brown is “a true legend amongst legends,” even comparing their media onslaught to CB’s experience.

Not to downplay CB's talent because in deed he is a very talented young man. However, his music hasn't broken barriers and it's very generic.

While he may have been able to sustain a career in music after his many controversies, people don't forget so easily. I think this will continue to overshadow his potential to become the full fledged superstar that he could have been. It's sad, because before he physically assaulted Rihanna, he was very much on his way.
 

Damn right I said it! The level of talent, passion, and artistic ability that this young man possesses makes @ChrisBrownOfficial a true legend amongst legends. A lot of times we don't realize or acknowledge our treasures while we still have them with us. We wait until they are gone to appreciate their power. Think about how much everyone attacked MJ and 2Pac while they were alive... I don't think I have ever witnessed someone more gifted, who has overcome so much and still growing and learning daily. My Prayers go up for this dude everyday. @ChrisBrownOfficial #Respect #Legend #Loyalty #Love #Artist #Proud #Men
