When asked why Rihanna was absent at his birthday celebrations, Brown replied: "Imma do it solo. I mean, at the end of the day, shawty doing her own thang, she on the road. It''s always gonna be love. I'm a grown man, just gotta fast forward.

"I'll just put it like this, one thing I always want to do is never disrespect nobody or put nobody down. The way I look at it is that I am always gonna love that person and people have different wants and needs."

He continued: "At the end of the day, she's a young girl. I can't really be focused on wifing someone that young. And I'm young too so I can't focus on that right now."

"I gotta step forward and be a man and be the best Chris Brown I can be instead of worrying about whoever else is gonna be on my side pocket," he added.
