Could it be? Is Chris Brown quitting music? That’s what he has led his 12M Twitter followers to believe in a series of sad panda messages posted Tuesday.
Don’t worry mainstream America.After this X album, it’ll probably be my last album.

Whaaaat? But why?
Being famous is amazing when it’s for ur music and talent. I’m tired of being famous for a mistake I made when i was 18. I’m cool over it!

Ahh. So Chris Brown has realized that he’s Ike Turner 2.0 (who actually was a musician, but is best remembered for his flying fists of fury) and is leaving music because working is kind of fruitless. Regardless of the quality of his music, every time he’s in the news, everyone will be quick to remind that he beat the ever-loving crap out of Rihanna in 2009.
Seems like a legit conclusion, but is he for real? We don’t know for sure, but these tweets are just the latest in a series of incredibly maudlin posts on his Twitter feed.
Home don’t feel like home. Too many vacant rooms.

Someone get this kid a beer, he sounds positively suicidal.
I’m not perfect nor do I have to be. We are all children pretending to be GODS! — Chris Brown (@chrisbrown) August 1, 2013
I can’t believe I’m going to say this, but that one is pretty philosophical. Even deep. Wow.
Anyway, the reaction from his fans was everything from outrage to encouragement.
Outrage:
@chrisbrown YOU AINT GOING ANYWHERE NIGGA

Encouragement:
@chrisbrown YOU ARE FAMOUS BECAUSE OF YOUR MUSIC. NEVER FORGET THAT. — – (@smgmccann) August 6, 2013
Outrage:

— kendra (@grandesontario) August 6, 2013
Encouragement:

Also, plenty of trolling:
