Indigo

"... with his talent apparently still hungry for growth and creative ideas, it would benefit Brown to craft albums around that fire opposed to arcing them as tour launchpads. Because when the smoke clears, Indigo is the whiteboard of ideas and nobody bothered to find the dry eraser. As a veteran superstar who has escaped a couple of valid cancellations and has the immense talent to harness, Brown needs to cut the songwriting camps and tap into his own soul and belt out a succession of overdue classic projects - with a congenial amount of tracks.".

"Not quite as extravagant as the preceding Heartbreak on a Full Moon, Chris Brown's tenth album is merely two hours in length. That still allows more than enough space for the singer to sufficiently cover each one of his modes. Pleasure-seeking club tracks, entitled slow jams, tormented ballads, and yearning pop-R&B love songs - the last of which still match up best with his voice, virtually unchanged during the last decade - are all plentiful".

"Indigo is lean compared to 2017's interminable 45-track Heartbreak on a Full Moon, but the album's lumbering pace and homogeneity overshadow even its few gems, like the sax-infused "Sorry Enough" and the smooth, disco-inflected "Side Nigga." And what memorable hooks there are can be credited to sampled songs from the 1990s, including Shanice's "I Love Your Smile" on "Undecided" and Aaliyah's "Back and Forth" on "Throw It Back." A handful of two-part suites like "Natural Disaster/Aura" and "Trust Issues/Act In" at least bother with the pretense of ambition. Otherwise, Indigo fails to justify both its duration and existence".
