Chris Brown is artist who has developed his style over the years from main stream RnB to more generic underground sounds such as hip hop dance widening his genre range.
When his debut single run it came out he was known as sweet boy with great talent as his early videos such as 'Yo' included interaction with the ladies and b boy dance moves. He established himself as performance based artist with his videos being recognised for the slick choreograhy.
When chris brown began to develop his sound he started collaborating with artists such as Chris Brown and his inconic symbol became his swagger. He chose to wear varsity jackets and big trainers which werealways noticable and this would be expected to seen in his videos such as 'Kiss Kiss' and 'Wall to wall' this was before the more drastic developments and he was still recognised for his dance ability.
After the scandal involving Rhianna Chris looked to re-invent himself as an artist and this meant changing his style. Although he had collaborated with rappers before he always chose to sing, when he released champion with chipmunk it was clear he had developed his new style. Covered in tatoos and wearing more hip hop clothes it seemed as though the sweet boy image had disappeared.
This underlined the transformation of his ocnography as he is still recognised for his amazing dance moves, like michael Jackson he seems to have re-invented himself and his style with every album but still has his trademark motifs.
