Chris Brown Decides Rihanna Duet Should Be Left Off New Album.

NO Ex On 'X'

“Just saw the working track list for ‘X’ yesterday — Rihanna is not on there. Record execs wanted that song on there, but Chris said he would rather not and wouldn’t allow the record to be released unless they took it off. They’re still hoping to convince Chris or pay him more to change his mind because it would be a hit. The record hasn’t been pressed yet, so things can change, but at this point he’s not changing his mind.

Chris, 24, previously confirmed that a track featuring Rihanna, 25, would be on his new album, but that was before they broke up.

Chris Brown Previously Confirmed: Rihanna ‘Will Be On My Album’

“We’re taking it one day at a time. She’s a wonderful girl. She’s beautiful. She’s on tour and our schedules don’t allow us to be as close as we want to be. But everything is good. She will be on my album,” Chris told USA Today of RiRi in late March.

Sadly, things can change in a blink of an eye. Chris and Rihanna have split and he’s now dating his other ex Karrueche Tran again. But who know, maybe Chris will have another change of heart.
