CHRIS BROWN & HOW WE'RE GOING TO HANDLE THE SITUATION GOING FORWARD...

One Of My Favorite Artists Of The Last Couple Of Years, Chris Brown Was Charged Yesterday Of Two Felonies Due To What Allegedly Happened On The Night Of February 8th.

Nearly A Month After Brown Was Booked On Suspicion Of Making Criminal Threats Following A Violent And, Judging By Recently Released Evidence, Bloody Altercation With Rihanna, The 19-Year-Old R&B Star Has Been Formally Charged With Two Felonies, Assault With Force Likely To Produce Great Bodily Injury And Making Criminal Threats.

If Convicted On Both Counts, Brown's Sentence Could Range From Probation To A Maximum Of Four Years And Eight Months In State Prison.

As A Husband & A Father Myself, This Is A Situation I Don't Take Lightly. I Make A Lot Of Jokes On The Air, But Domestic Violence Is Not Humorous In Any Way. I've Made A Personal Decision On My Show To Not Play Him Over The Past Month. It Was A Choice On My Part, Which Was A Situation That Much Went Into. After Much Consideration On The Matter, I've Decided To Heed "The Adams" Advice And Make The Decision For Our Station As A Whole To Not Play Chris Brown's Music Or Promote Other Projects Until Further Notice. 

Even If A Plea Bargain Is Reached, It Is Going To Be Awhile Until You'd Hear Mr. Brown On Jammin' 105.5 In Heavy Rotation Like Much Of His Work Was In The First 14-15 Months Of Our Existence.

Feel Free To Leave Comments On This Matter Here Or Any Of The Other Ways In Which I Can Be Reached, I Will List At The Bottom Of This Post...Thank You As Always For Listening To 3KJ/Jammin' 105.5...
