Chris Brown disputes journalist's claims of ongoing abuse

R&B singer Chris Brown and journalist David Dennis Jr. have engaged in a public dispute following allegations regarding Brown’s conduct toward women. In a video posted to Instagram, Dennis Jr., a senior writer for Andscape, criticized the way Brown’s fan base defends the singer despite his history of legal controversies. Dennis Jr. claimed that Brown is “still actively abusing women to this day and kind of never stopped,” suggesting that fans should be honest about prioritizing his musical talent over his alleged actions.

Brown responded directly to the comments, challenging Dennis Jr. to provide evidence of current abuse. Brown demanded that the journalist produce specific criminal charges or convictions involving violence against women that have occurred since his 2009 case, arguing that criminality is public information. Dennis Jr. countered by asking if Brown was claiming he had not physically harmed a woman in the last 17 years or if all subsequent accusations and restraining orders were false.
