Rapper Believes Chris Brown Should Choose Karrueche Tran Over Rihanna

Everyone has an opinion in the three-some saga of Chris Brown and his ex-girlfriends Rihanna and most recently Karrueche Tran. To get you up to speed, Brown broke up with Karrueche after dating for two years. The last year was a troubling one for the couple since Rihanna requested Brown’s restraining order to be lowered. Since then the exes have recorded music together, partied together in St. Tropez, kissed at an award show and enjoyed three date nights back to back.

It appeared that Karrueche was standing by her man until he released a stinging statement confirming their breakup was a direct result to his friendship with Rihanna. Following the statement the R&B singer felt it necessary to release a video of a drunken confessional on his love for both Rihanna and Karrueche. The confessional didn’t sit well with Tran who was reportedly pissed and also tweeted,

“WTF is going on? All I’m saying is.. You don’t mess with people’s genuine feelings. You just don’t!” She added, “Life moves on.. So let’s all.”

One rapper believes the Yeah 3X singer should not play with Tran’s heart. Waka Flocka Flame of Atlanta visited the Breakfast Club radio show in New York City on Tuesday and dished on the relationship. When asked if Brown should have chosen Rihanna over his model girlfriend,

“Damn sure ain’t going for Rihanna. It ain’t that I don’t think she bad, she got history. I can’t judge nobody. You don’t know what rocks for them. If you got nookie you trying to kill somebody for. If you throwing bottles, that’s too good. You don’t need that. That thing got you throwing bottles. Awww, that’s over.”

As of this morning it appears that Brown and Tran may have rekindled their romance. This weekend while RihRih was performing in Baku, Brown and Tran were together at a dinner party for Christina Milian. The following evening she was spotted partying at Greystone Manor with her girlfriends but found her way to Brown’s condo to spend the night. Photos surfaced of the Vietnamese model emerging from Brown’s home in the same attire she wore at the club the night before. To summarize the evening Karrueche tweeted, “Tonight was fun :)”. Need we say more?

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
