Jermaine Dupri Says Chris Brown Will Be Bigger Than Tupac

Chris Brown still has legal issues on the horizon but his recent release from jail after serving four months for a probation violation gives the entertainer a chance to make a comeback of sorts. Speaking with Miss Info at BET Awards Radio Room, Jermaine Dupri said he thinks Breezy's latest resurgence will elevate his fame past Tupac levels. “He’s a star, though. I told people when he came out of jail, he’s going to be Tupac," Dupri said. "He’s an R&B singer and a singer’s music is supposed to go farther than rap. And, it stretches over different boundaries. To me, he’s going to be more famous than Tupac. I mean, he’s a star, and I can’t front on it.”

Brown recently turned down a chance to elevate his renown, whether that be bad or good, by shooting down a proposed BET reality show that would have documented the Virginia native's post-jail return to music.
