    Chris Brown Freed from UK Jail, Backed by Justin Bieber and 50 Cent

    Judge grants release after $7M bail as singer awaits trial

    Chris Brown has been released from jail in the UK following a week in custody, with music stars Justin Bieber and 50 Cent showing public support. Brown was arrested in Manchester and charged with grievous bodily harm with intent over a 2023 nightclub incident involving producer Abe Diaw.

    Initially denied bail, the R&B singer was remanded until June 13, just days before his Breezy Bowl tour kicks off in the same city. However, a judge reversed the decision, setting Brown free after he posted nearly $7 million in bail. His release comes with strict conditions: he must reside in the UK until trial, surrender his passport, and comply with travel restrictions — although he’s allowed to tour internationally.

    Following his release, Brown shared an Instagram photo from the airport. Justin Bieber commented, “Welcome home,” while 50 Cent posted, “CB out, he made bond… I think he is the best overall artist out.”

    Prosecutors allege Brown struck Diaw with a tequila bottle and stomped on him, leaving lasting injuries. CCTV footage of the incident is part of the case. Brown has denied the allegations, while a civil lawsuit filed by Diaw remains ongoing.

Produced by The Stereotypes, the track ultimately served as the third single from Bieber’s debut studio album, My World 2.0.

    Debuting at No. 98 on the Billboard Hot 100, it later ascended and peaked at No. 15.
