Christmas gift suggestions: To your enemy, forgiveness. To an opponent, tolerance. To a friend, your heart. To a customer, service. To all, charity. To every child, a good example. To yourself, respect.

“the[y] didnt even have my album in the back… not on shelves, saw for myself. im tired of this s—. major stores r blackballing my cd. not stockin the shelves and lying to costumers. what the f— do i gotta do.”

And finally: “we talked to the managers and the didnt even know anything. wow!!! but they had alicia keys album ready for release for this tuesday comin … the manager told me that when there are new releases its mandatory to put em on the shelves.. BUT NO SIGN OF #GRAFFITI. BS.”
Dear Chris Brown,
Perhaps people will be more likely to buy and/or sell your new CD when you stop being all "what the F- I gotta do" which basically translates to "I'm sorry yall are mad at me" rather than what you should be which is "I'm sorry for that awful thing I did." Maybe, at that point, you can actually grasp that actions have consequences. Even though your ass is not in jail where it belongs for your ACTIONS, some stores choosing not to sell your merchandise because they do not like your actions is what we in the real world call a consequence. Deal with it. And perhaps show a little understanding as to why less than a year later the public is not completely ready to forgive you and give you cash to support the lifestyle which more than likely turned you into an entitled brat and made you forget that it is bad to hit a girl. So get back to anger management and have them teach you how to act when someone tells you "no" and get back to us, OK?
Cause I'd really like to be able to put "Kiss, Kiss" back on my ipod in this decade, but I'm gonna need you to show a little remorse before that can happen.
