CHRIS BROWN UNVEILS “SWEET LOVE” SINGLE COVER

Chris Brown keeps it uber cool in the newly unveiled single cover for his brand new song, “Sweet Love.” In a shot taken from his album photo shoot, Breezy sits in his shiny suit and leather driving gloves, backed by long legged, jumpsuit donning models. The image doesn’t exactly portray a “sweet love,” more like a “cold” one, but it is still a sexy pic.

Brown’s forthcoming album Fortune is coming soon (we heard it may get pushed back from the initial May 8 date), another “rap” single titled “Till I Die” featuring Big Sean & Wiz Khalifa is expected to be released soon as well.  What do you think of the cover and song? Hear it here.
