Chris Brown Storms Out of Virginia Radio Station

It's become quite clear that Chris Brown has had some trouble getting his career back on track since his infamous assault on ex-girlfriend Rihanna last year, but the Virginia native keeps digging himself into a deeper hole.

Brown was scheduled to make a promotional appearance at Virginia's Q94 WRVQ radio station this week to promote his upcoming Haiti benefit concert in Richmond on May 15. But before the interview could get under way, Brown's anger got the best of him and things quickly went sour.

Radio personality, Kash, explained that Brown was immediately annoyed when he realized the station did not have any of his songs on heavy rotation. "Chris Brown was going to come in today to do an interview to promote his concert. But before we could even get into the interview, homeboy starts yelling at me, wondering why we don't play his records," Kash said. "And I said, 'Mr. Chris Brown ... you just don't have any hits and that's just the truth." From there the conversation, which Kash recorded and can be heard here, went south. "All I'm saying is that you don't play my s---," Brown confronted Kash. "Why am I even doing this interview? I ain't doing this s---," he said before ending the conversation abruptly.

Brown's struggle with airplay has been a recurring theme in recent months. In March, he begged fans to request his songs on their local stations, as he struggled to get his music heard again. Kash, who said that he received multiple apologetic phone calls from Jive Records following the incident, later released a statement on his Twitter account, explaining that he did not tamper with the recording of Brown that he played back to audiences. "For the record, my interview with Chris Brown was posted with the entire amount of audio I got minus dead air, I tightened it up for radio play," he said. "Apparently blogs are thinking I edited it to make homeboy look like a d-----, but no editing can create that level of d-----baggery."

Chris Brown is scheduled to take the stage for his Haiti benefit concert in Richmond, Virginia on May 15. He will be joined by Keri Hilson, Trey Songz, T-Pain, Juelz Santana, Mario and Ryan Leslie.

I agree with jglimited4. Finally, someone who writes with common sense. I live in Virginia & glad that I don't have to listen to Mr. DJ A$$ who owes Mr. Brown an apology. I must say, I wish the other stations would play Chris Brown on the air.

If Chris was there to promote the benefit why did DJ A$$ want to talk about non-related ish. Why would Jive send them a letter of apologies for an interview that was not set up by Jive? Chris was there to provide the charity event, not himself the artist. You can not believe everything that fly out of a person's mouth, who is bent on keeping trouble in the air. This event is a good thing but DJ A$$ had to add some controversy for the public to bring out some negativity. There is nothing wrong with this kid and never has been. I would not have sat there and been disrepected either. He already went down for the situation when he should not have but he knew he had the talent to bounce back. Young people don't live in the past as long as ignorant people, they move on to better things. One day the truth will come and you all will hang your head in shame.

This really isn't a good look 4 u Chris. If he ever want people 2 get over the incident about him and ole gurl he's going 2 have 2 stop with all of these uneccessry outburts. I mean come on now he knows his songs is just not what's happening right now this was just totally uncalled for. Me personally I don't think his career has gone down the drain because those little teenage girls will continue 2 support him. Hey as long as he's making good music I like him.

I'm pretty sure his career is over at this point. Maybe if he takes a break and comes back in few years people will have moved passed the biggest mistake of his life.

I agree, I think he needs to step back and take some time for himself. Dont expect the public to be so forgiving after what he did. Also throwing temper tantrums at the drop of a dime everytime something doesn't go his way makes him look even worse.

Chris Brown, not a good thing. No matter how talented you are, if you can't keep your cool, you won't exist.
