Breezy Announces New Album

Back in March, Chris Brown had fans digging for clues about his next music move after sharing a cryptic post. “ALL IMA SAY IS MAY,” he wrote on Instagram Stories. From a new album to another Breezy tour, the speculations were all over the board! At that point, fans were still chattin’ about the energy he put into ‘Breezy Bowl XX,’ which honored his 20 years in the music industry.

On Thursday (April 9), Breezy revealed that he’s dropping his next album on May 8th. For now, he blessed fans with what seems like the album’s first single, ‘Obvious.’

Chris Brown & Usher Surprise Fans With Tour

Now, it seems we finally know what MAY meant! A new album AND a legendary tour. Breezy first teased on Thursday via IG Stories that he “had something to tell” on Friday. Then, amid dropping the R&B tour news, he posted on the same platform, writing, “Y’all not ready,” with fire emojis. The announcement, a video, was posted on his and Usher’s Instagram feeds early Friday morning. It shows two masked men hopping on motorcycles and speeding to link up as they pass by fans receiving alerts on their phones. It ends with the two men, revealed to be Chris Brown and Usher, stepping into an elevator. Usher says, “It’s time, and Chris Brown responds, “Hell yeah.” Then, the doors open to a stage with a cheering crowd in front.

No other details about the tour are available yet, but fans are speculating it’ll happen in 2026. On Ticketmasker, only one date has appeared under the event, ‘The R&B Tour 2026’ and it’s for a July 17 show in Charlotte, North Carolina. However, it looks like tickets are not yet on sale.
