Kevin McCall and Chris Brown were once close buddies in the music industry, with both singers helping each other with their music careers. But in recent times, the pair haven’t been as close they used to be and McCall recently explained why he and Brown had a falling out.
In an interview with Vlad TV, McCall explained that Brown, who is more seasoned, was giving him advice and help on making it as a solo singer. However, McCall didn’t agree with how Brown was trying to steer his career.
“Chris had this image of me, he wanted me to be grown, sexy, have this thug appeal and we kinda just didn’t see eye to eye. I didn’t see the vision he had, at the same time it could have just been a small conversation, but for whatever reason we didn’t see eye to eye or what he was trying to do for my career. At the time and I feel like I was just sitting on my hands waiting on him to do something. He was touring with Tyga and all that but he wasn’t taking me with him and performing my songs and I’m seeing that, so I’m like ‘I gotta do my own thing.’ He had a conversation with me, ’cause I was upset. He was like, ‘I can lead you to the door, but I can’t make people f— with you, you gotta do that!’ ” McCall shared.
McCall explains that things between him and Brown came to a head when he collaborated with Keke Palmer on a video shoot.
“So Keke Palmer hit me up, she was a fan of mine. She wanted to work. [Producer] Harmony Samuels, from my church, he wrote with Chris Brown, did some stuff for him off his Fame album, he asked me to help him out on that and I did the video for it. Chris was upset about that.” McCall said.
