Although having already released three tracks from, "Fortune," Chris Brown [1] is pushing back his fifth studio album from May 8 to July 3.
"Team Breezy! The official album date for FORTUNE is July 3, 2012!!!!!!!!!!!!," Brown tweeted [2] yesterday (April 22).
Earlier this month (April 10), Brown released two songs, "Sweet Love" and "Til I Die," respectively, showcasing two sides of the artist. "Sweet Love" is a seductive electro/R&B ballad while "Til I Die," featuring Big Sean [3] and Wiz Khalifa [4], is synth-heavy hip-hop cut. This week, "Til I Die," Brown's third charted song from "Fortune," debuted at No. 74 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.
