Despite the pushing back of his album Royalty's launch date, Chris Brown released a mixtape called Before the Party as a surprise for the fans. He announced in his instagram account that the mixtape is ready for download and listen via the link he provided.

In a track called "The Break Up", he sings about how he wishes he were the one who "couldn't sleep" and "couldn't live without the other one". He basically explains that he is the one who should be broken from the said break up. In the song, he reveals that his mile long list of mistakes and wrongs including going out and acting wild are just a few of the factors why his previous relationship ended.

It turned out that Brown cheated on Tran with Nia Guzman, who, after a lot of encounters with Brown, agreed to a joint custody allowing Royalty to have his father's last name.Chris Brown is an American actor, dancer and recording artist that keeps his art form alive despite all that had had been through these past few years including his bipolar disorder and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PSTD) diagnosis.
