With songs like "Yeah 3X," "Beautiful People," and "Look At Me" receiving strong reviews and climbing the music charts, fans may not have too long to wait before Chris Brown's next album hits stores. According to Billboard, Brown may join an anticipated list of Spring 2011 releases including Lady Gaga's "Born This Way" and Britney Spears' "Hold It Against Me" led effort.
Now labeled "F.A.M.E. + Fortune," Brown says he's "excited to let the world" finally hear what's he's been working on.
"im so excited to let the world hear this album, deuces. no bs. yeah 3x. beautiful people. look at me now. and there are more that are better," Brown told fans Tuesday, the same day a listening session for the album was held.
According to Billboard, there is a lot for fans to look forward to based on what was heard Tuesday.
"But there's a lot to like on CB's album. He draws from his R+B roots but also doing a lot of fusion with house and dub," reports Billboard. "Also of course hip-hop and dance; also raps and throws in tribal beats on one cut."
As previously reported, Brown has hinted at a collaboration with Justin Bieber in addition to recently released efforts with Busta Rhymes, Lil Wayne and Jawan Harris. The latter of the three he shares a video with titled "Another Planet" (watch here).
It is unclear when "F.A.M.E. + Fortune" will be released at this point but sources say the album could be in stores as early as Spring 2011.
Brown's last album, "Graffiti," was released in 2009. The effort, featuring singles like "I Can Transform Ya," is nominated for a Grammy Award -- one of three nominations (more on that story here...).

I'm really excited and i hope it does extremely well.
I am so proud of him. You learn from your mistakes and keep pushin.. Anxiously waiting on F-A-M-E.
I'm so happy about Chris Brown's hard work and true talent finally paying off. Chris Brown needs to be recognized for the well rounded, gifted artist that he is :) Much continued success to CB:)
cant wait, probably the most talented artist there is and his music is incredible
Chris Brown is a musical genius! His ability to change up his style and musical direction in any number of directions is so impressive! In the short 5 years he has been making music, I have in my CB collection over 300 songs and virtually every one of them is amazing! I'm so proud of you Chris!
i cant wait we love you breezy
Im a huge Chris Brown and I hope this album does much better than Graffiti did. Now that Jive is back on board and the whole Rihanna thing has blown over, I believe that everyone can start to realize how much of a great artist he is.
