Chris Brown dominated the headlines in 2009, though not for the reasons he’d hoped. After a February altercation with then-girlfriend Rihanna, he pleaded guilty, was sentenced to probation and counseling, and emerged from it all a changed man.

He capped off the year by releasing a new album, Graffiti, and, as 2009 draws to a close, he looks forward to re-establishing himself as one of the brightest stars in the pop/R&B world. It was quite a journey, and along the way he drew inspiration from many sources — one of which happened to be the music of his contemporaries.

Recently, MTV News sat down with Brown to ask him about the songs and albums that helped him along the way. Because, as he told us, ultimately, it’s all about the music. These are his picks for the album and artist of 2009

Artist of the Year

“Juelz Santana. … He played me some of his [upcoming] album, and it’s dope. He’s just gotta keep doing him. It took [Lil] Wayne a long time to break mainstream. The last couple years have been his big break. So I think it’s gonna take a while for Juelz to do it, but he got it. Juelz got it. He’s always making great music, so I think he doesn’t have too far to go.”

Album of the Year

“This year? Man, that’s hard. You know what I listened to a lot? Ryan Leslie’s [Transition] album. He’s a dope artist. He did [my song] ‘Famous Girl’ — he produced it — but he’s just a dope artist. I think creatively he’s so unique that I don’t think people get it yet. He’s just so dope. His album’s incredible. I listen to it all the time.”

On Monday, Chris Brown canceled his Twitter account, thanking his fans on it before deleting the account. In the days leading up to the decision to abandon the site, he had used Twitter to vehemently express his anger over his perception that retailers were not carrying his new album, Graffiti, and his general discontent with the music business. Although no official reason has been given for why Brown decided to cancel the account, when he spoke to MTV News last month, the singer said sharing his thoughts on the site had burned him a few times.

“Honestly, Twitter has done nothing but get me into trouble,” Brown told MTV News. At the time of the interview, he was speaking in reference to a fan-made video montage of him and former girlfriend Rihanna — Brown pleaded guilty to assaulting her on the eve of the Grammy Awards earlier this year — that he had posted, saying that he did so because it made him remember their good times together. But he added in the interview that he didn’t want the “backlash” that can come with having a Twitter account.
