Robert Glasper

Following his Grammy night loss for best R&B album, Chris Brown went into a fit against winner Robert Glasper, and apologized the next day.

[Chris Brown took to Instagram](https://www.billboard.com/music/awards/chris-brown-robert-glasper-grammys-2023-loss-1235213175/) to project his frustrations onto the category’s winner: 12-time nominee and five-time Grammy winner Robert Glasper for his album Black Radio III. His tone was far different from Brown’s, offering praise for the R&B star’s nominated project, Breezy (Deluxe), and expressing the feeling that one of his fellow nominees would take the award, adding, “They all have amazing albums.” What Brown’s research may have led him to realize is Glasper’s innumerable accomplishments and contributions as one of the most lauded jazz, R&B and hip-hop instrumentalists of his time. Here’s what Brown said in the DM, posted to his Instagram Story: you were not the intended target and I know I came off really rude and mean. YOU AND I SHOULD never be in the same [category]..

Black Radio III featured some of Brown’s contemporaries, including the likes of Jennifer Hudson, Ty Dolla Sign, PJ Morton, Ant Clemons, and H.E.R. On Monday, Brown shared an Instagram DM he sent to Glasper showing a half-apology to the musician.
