On Monday, Chris Brown took to Instagram to post a countdown video which lead fans to believe that Royalty would hit stores on Black Friday, November 27. However, the R&B singer recently sat down with HOT 97 for a conversation and revealed that his LP will arrive in stores on December 18. On top of that, he shared about his one-year-old daughter, fatherhood, maturation, past insecurities and ex-girlfriends.
