Jermaine Dupri recently spoke about how he feels regarding Chris Brown’s potential.

“He’s a star,” Dupri said in an interview with MissInfo. “I told people when he came out of jail, he’s going to be Tupac. He’s an R&B singer and a singer’s music is supposed to go farther than rap. And, it stretches over different boundaries. To me, he’s going to be more famous than Tupac. I mean, it is what it is. I just feel it. He’s a star, and I can’t front on it.” 

Chris Brown performed at the BET Awards ceremony, which took place yesterday (June 30) in Los Angeles, California.
