Young Money rapper Tyga recently sat down with The Boom Box to talk about his recent collaboration with Chris Brown, during which he revealed how thankful he was that the fans took to the record and made it #1.
“It’s a great feeling because we made that off a mixtape and the fans just chose it to be No. 1 on radio,” Tyga told The BoomBox of the song’s natural progression. “We didn’t put no money into it. We shot the video out of our own pocket and it came out.”
Tyga is of course speaking about “Deuces” the song taken from the Fan of a Fan mixtape which remains at the top of the Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop chart this week, for a third consecutive week.

FAME
Today is the day that we were all waiting for! Not only did Chris confirm that he is in the studio working on his fourth studio album, he also announced the title of the album. Speaking to Austin’s 102.3 The Beat radio station, Chris confirmed that the album is going to be called F.A.M.E. which many of us will know stands for Forgiving All My Enemies, which Chris also has tattooed across his arm.
I think that it’s the perfect album title. It’s a good way to brush off what’s happened over the last year and to look to the future with no hard feelings and better music. What do you think of the album title?
Speaking to US Magazine Laurieann Gibson a.k.a. Lady GaGa’s choreographer, was asked during a recent interview, besides working with Lady GaGa which musician in the industry she would like to work with and here’s her answer.
US: Is there anyone else you really want to work with that you haven’t been able to yet?
LG: Chris Brown. He is the closest thing that I’ve seen to what we loved about Michael Jackson. If there is a synch between music and singer, that magic, he’s there. But I think at this point he’s still so young and hasn’t gotten the right guidance.

I had the pleasure of getting this exclusive info for Team Breezy. I won’t say much, I’ll just let the interview do the talking. And, Frank E – make sure you take good care of our boy, Breezy! We, the fans, are trusting you! LOL!
1. How did you guys come up with the song, “Yeah 3x”?
I was working late one night in the studio when I got a call from my manager. Chris was working in the studio down the street and wanted to me to come down and listen to some tracks. I walked in, met Chris for the first time, and played him 1 track. He sat there for 4 minutes listening, then said, “Ok, I’m ready.” He jumped in the booth and wrote the whole thing on the spot.2. Who wrote it?
Chris did and he wrote it in about 15 minutes. I didn’t realize that he wrote so much until then. I was really impressed.3. Is the song from Chris’ forthcoming album?
Chris told me he has two songs in mind for the singles for his album – “Yeah 3x” is the pop/rhythmic/crossover single, and he has one more that leans more urban.4. Will there be a music video?
While we were working on the song, he described to me in detail his vision for the song, the music video, everything… he’s talented beyond belief and has a vision for his work.5. Will you and Chris be working together again?
We have plans to work again soon in LA. Chris is great to work with because he works fast and off immediate inspiration. His vocals seem effortless, and watching him in the booth is like a mini concert. Be ready for more from Chris Brown and DJ Frank E!

Okay, well first off let me start off by saying Denver, we are well on our way to being on the map for good! If you don’t know by now, Chris Brown has a new song and it’s been produced by one of my hometown heros, DJ Frank E.
I got a call from some people I know and had be working with while I was absent from Chris Brown Web (I love how everything is coming full circle, don’t you?) and found out, yesterday, that Chris’ brand new song that I had posted earlier that day was made in part in my own backyard!
I hate to sound so giddy, but I am so excited to be able to provide Team Breezy with this once in a lifetime chance to ask a major producer questions about not only his song with Chris, but about his techniques, and other artists that he’s worked with.
Make sure you e-mail or tweet us your questions for DJ Frank E! We will be interviewing him with YOUR questions tomorrow and will be posting it on Friday!
Look forward to hearing from you!

Chris recently announced (after what felt like months!) that the full length video for 12 Strands: Matrix will be released exclusively on MechanicalDummy.com on September 27th at 8pm EST (pre-sale Sept. 24th for fans), but that it will not be free, as previously thought. Infact, the 12 Strands: Matrix video will become a pay per view event costing $2.99 with a large portion of the profits going to Chris’ charity The Symphonic Love Foundation, which aims to provide support and funding for a wide variety of music and arts programs dedicated to the artistic development of children. I will definitely be buying that!
In anticipation for the new video, a new trailer has also been released. Check it out below!
