  1. While listeners can't help but be reminded of his fall from grace, Brown also shows us on Graffiti that he's still a formidable talent.-
  2. Chris Brown has made a bland, occasionally obnoxious, pro forma R&B album.
  3. A handful of lovingly arranged power ballads were evidently designed to illuminate the singer's remorse over the Rihanna incident. Yet Brown doesn't seem up to the task of contrition.

  2. I'm sorry but this album isn't great. It's ok though. But compared to his last album, this isn't his greatest.
