Chris Brown could use a friend, unfortunately the only person that he thinks he can relate to has been dead for 15 years.
After deleting his Twitter account and having to deal with more negative headlines rehashing his assault on Rihanna, Brown went on Instagram to unleash his feelings.
Posting a photo of the late great rap legend, Tupac Shakur, Brown wrote “That awkward moment when the only person you can relate to in the world is dead.”
Relating to Pac is far-fetched, but we get where he was going with it. Pac wasn’t always the friendliest and didn’t really care what anybody had to say about his actions. On the contrary, Brown has apologized for physically attacking his ex nearly four years ago (which was a noble move, by the way), yet he still can’t shake the negative press.
Of course both men share some physical similarities (tattoos, wearing a nose ring, etc.), but in doing a little more research we found 10 reasons why Brown shouldn’t compare his story to Pac.
Read them below.

He’s Still Alive
Not being dead is a pretty good reason why he can’t relate to Pac. Life is precious.
He’s Not A Rapper
He dabbles, but singing is more his lane.
He’s Never Been Shot
When Tupac said “thug life,” he meant it
He Hasn’t Done Time
Brown turned himself in to authorities after that situation with Rihanna, but he’s never done real jail time.
He Has No Affiliation To The Black Panther Party
Tupac was surrounded by strong leaders, which seeped into his lyrical content. Brown doesn’t come off as the type to take interest in sociopolitical issues.
His Music Isn’t Legendary
Pac’s music stands the test of time. Brown has some hits, but he has a ways to go.
He Has No Hood Credibility
He’s a wild one, but throwing chairs and destroying a dressing room doesn’t mean he’s really “’bout that life.”
He’s Not In The Guinness Book Of World Records
According to the Guinness Book Of World Records, Tupac is the most successful rapper of all time. Breezy’s biggest record-breaking moment was performing for a big crowd at the TODAY show.
He Can’t Act
He’s trying but Brown’s acting isn’t good. Pac studied acting as a youngster, and thought of becoming an actor before a rapper.
He’s Never Been A Hologram
You’re nothing in this game until your image is digitally transmitted onto a stage in front of your fans.
