Despite facing overseas legal turbulence, Chris Brown earned a major co-sign from 50 Cent.
See, he’s not only about trolling. He gives credit where it’s due–often.
Get this, after news broke that the R&B superstar had been released on bail in the U.K., 50 Cent quickly took to Instagram to show love—and deliver high praise. The Queens-bred mogul didn’t mince words regarding how he views Brown’s impact on the music world.
“CB out he made bond, I’m only saying sh*t about him because I think he is the best overall artist out,” 50 wrote. “I watched his whole run!”

The endorsement came as Brown gears up to resume the European stretch of his Breezy Bowl Tour, with major stadium stops lined up at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium and London’s Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Still, Brown’s itinerary includes more than sold-out shows. Following his recent arrest, he’s due back in court on June 20. Judge Tony Baumgartner has also mandated that Brown surrender his passport—unless it’s being used for tour purposes—while legal proceedings continue.
Even with court dates looming, the momentum around Chris Brown isn’t slowing down. With Fif calling him the “best overall artist out,” it’s clear the industry hasn’t forgotten just how far Brown’s talent reaches.
