Chris Brown Preps 'Exclusive' Deluxe Edition, Shakes of Dating Rumors With Rihanna

Chris Brown

R&B singer Chris Brown is gearing up to release a repackaged version of his latest album ‘Exclusive’. The revamped disc will include new tracks -- one is the next single, "Forever" -- and, if he gets his way, a DVD. "It's very fortunate, my label wants me to repackage the album and release some new records," he tells MTV. "I've been recording a lot of new records as well as having some songs that haven't been released yet that I can put on my repackaging. I might put my tour that I did in the States on my repackaging. I did a big tour in the States. I want to put that in the DVD part, add some of my videos on it." "Forever" was produced by Polow Da Don and is one of the cuts Brown laid down recently. Originally, the plan was to follow up his current single, "With You," with the Kanye West-featuring "Down," but the new material won out. The song was penned by Brown and his songwriting team, the Graffiti Artists. "We went into the studio, Polow gave me a beat, and I just started writing. His record is more of a European, techno, house-type feel," Brown recalled. "We wanted to give it that other side of crossover, and go a little bit to that pop realm. Hopefully, [I'll] be the Prince of Pop. I don't want to say I'm the King; I just hopefully can be the Prince of Pop." On another note, Chris Brown has responded to all the dating rumors with Rihanna. Both Brown and Rihanna have denied it for months, despite pictures of the two getting cozy at industry events, in Jamaica and other places. Brown is sticking to his story: He said they are not a couple. "Me, personally, from a relationship standpoint, I am a single guy," he tells MTV. "I am definitely single. And I've been on my Web site and seeing how girls have been threatening me and saying I'm a liar, and I'm like, 'It's not even that.' The thing is, I have a close friend, but it's not like a relationship. I'm not trying to settle down. I'm only 18, so I'm just trying to live my life and have fun."
