Chris Brown and his bleached blond hair hit up 595 North in Atlanta last night (March 15) for a private listening session for his upcoming F.A.M.E. project.
The platinum haired crooner, who has been suspected of leaking his own peen pics (click HERE if you missed ’em ~ NSFW), will be hosting several listening sessions across the country this week in preparation of his album release.
Chris announced each track as the attentive audience took it all in and at the end of the session, Ludacris joined him onstage for a live performance of their new song “Wet the Bed.”

Akon is hawking his new fragrance these days and has designed a scent for both men and women. Although it’s tough for me, personally, to desire to smell like anything remotely resembling prison, some of you may be so inclined.
After his hit single “Locked Up”, Akon is continuing to cash in on his “Konvict” theme with a signature fragrance by the same name! Continue Reading…
