Legal Proceedings
On May 15, Brown was arrested in Manchester, England, in connection with an alleged assault that occurred in February 2023 at London’s Tape nightclub. The incident reportedly involved Brown striking music producer Abraham Diaw with a bottle, resulting in serious injuries. Initially denied bail, Brown was remanded in custody until May 21, when he was granted bail under strict conditions, including a $6.7 million bond and the surrender of his passport after international tour dates. His next court appearance is scheduled for June 13 at Southwark Crown Court in London. Diaw has also filed a civil lawsuit seeking $16 million in damages.
‘Breezy Bowl XX’ World Tour
Celebrating two decades in the music industry, Brown’s ‘Breezy Bowl XX’ tour is slated to begin on June 8 in Amsterdam. The European leg includes performances in major cities such as Manchester, London, Cardiff, Birmingham, Dublin, and Glasgow. Due to high demand, additional shows have been added in London and Manchester. The North American segment kicks off on July 30 in Miami, featuring special guests Summer Walker and Bryson Tiller on select dates.
Recent Collaborations
In April 2025, Brown collaborated with Nigerian-American artist Davido on the single “Titanium,” featured on Davido’s album ‘5ive.’ The track has achieved international chart success, peaking at number 7 on Billboard’s World Digital Song Sales and number 30 on Nigeria’s TurnTable Top 100.
Industry Support
Following his release, Brown received public support from fellow artist Justin Bieber, who welcomed him back via social media. The two have previously collaborated on tracks such as “Next to You” (2011) and “Don’t Check on Me” (2019).
As Brown navigates his legal challenges, he remains focused on his upcoming tour and musical endeavors.
