On Tuesday I incorrectly stated that Chris Brown fired his longtime manager Tina Davis. In fact, Brown hired Bu Thiam to head his management team. Bu and Tina will share management duties. I regret the error.
This post was originally written July 31, 2012 @ 12:03 p.m.
If you noticed a kinder, more intellectual Chris Brown tweeting on social networking website Twitter.com, there’s a good reason for that.
6 months after telling the media Chris Brown would not give interviews in 2012, Brown’s longtime manager Tina Davis has been fired.
Singer/rapper Akon’s brother Abu Thiam, VP of A&R for Def Jam, replaces Tina as Brown’s new manager, Sandrarose.com learned exclusively.
Davis has taken the brunt of the blame for the colossal failure of Brown’s heavily promoted fifth studio album, Fortune. Davis ran afoul of Brown’s mother, Joyce Hawkins, when she reportedly began a longterm sexual relationship with the teenage Brown.
Davis, who is in her 40s, has always denied having an inappropriate relationship with her well-endowed client. In 2009 Davis’ lawyer Marshall Grossman released a statement, saying “The relationship between Ms. Davis and Mr. Brown is that of manager and client. There has never been any other relationship. The rumors in circulation are false.”
She will continue to work for Brown’s management team in a minor role.
Bu began his career as road manager for rappers Lil Zane and Loon in the 1990s. He was eventually promoted to co-CEO of Konvict Muzik, where he helped manage the careers of singer Lady Gaga and rapper T-Pain, among others.
Now that Brown’s failing career is finally in good hands, expect to see more philosophical tweets like the one Brown tweeted on Monday:
Life: the sum of the distinguishing phenomena of organisms, especially metabolism, reproduction, and the power of adaptation to environment.
More from Sandrarose.com:
I do think Chris needs more people in his corner that are not “yes people” but can Bu tame him though
do you know somebody who is so ugly that they’re cute?
Sandra, define well-endowed.
I remember when you wrote that story about him and his manager
Not “ran afoul..”

I think Akon signed her and is over production and Vince is simply management
I hope I don’t have to remind you kids that Bu is a friend of the blog, and as such I hope you will show him respect. Especially considering how beneficial he has been to this blog.

Zane had that song with 112. He was a cutie
Does Bu believe in having more than one wife too?
Is Bu still with Joan Clayton
TY – no vex…all those short ‘lite’ skinned-ed (shoutout to Magic Johnson) look alike
I do think Chris needs more people in his corner that are not “yes people”
————————————-
And Bu is from the Motherland where they expect you to satcho azz the entire fugg DOWN and respect your elders and shet the fugg up too.
Bet there will be no more chair throwing ala Robin Roberts/GMA interview.
@Ty
@mzwhang —-> Whaddup!!!
If I’m not Mistaken This Dude is related to Akon and Akon is The MAIN ONE benefiting from a Monetary Perspective Off Lady Gaga Though (YUP…)
It might work if he can get Chris to do right
He has the potential to be great but he keeps showing his azz and wont stay outta the clubs 
Dude brought his girlfriend on the breakfast club to ask for a 3-some with her friend…gotta luv men
Its important for artists to host in clubs and other after hours venues…thats money making stuff.
How do you pronounce his last name? Serious question tho….
his album sales dropping like a stone, more foolishness in the club – even clive davis couldn’t save this boy
nutsguts to ask yourself.:wave: Hey Yall!!!!!!!!!!!

Early in the morning
I put breakfast at your table
And make sure that your coffee
Has its sugar and cream
Your eggs are over easy
Your toast done lightly
All that’s missing is your morning kiss
That used to greet me
Now you say the juice is sour
It used to be so sweet
And I can’t help but to wonder
If you’re talking ’bout me
We don’t talk the way we used to talk
It’s hurtin’ so deep
I’ve got my pride, I will not cry
But it’s makin’ me weak

I’m not your superwoman. Whew! Now THAT was the jam
watched girlfriends marathon this weekend on centric and that marathon episode where Joan goes off on Ellis never gets old…’propped up like the grand pufta stuffing your face with the cous cous’
Understood @Ty. But he gets incentives, free clubbing, music played etc, when he is not doing paid promos. Clubbing is important no matter how you slice it.
Club shows are how those other none mainstream artist continue to eat after no more mainstream media.
Chris is young, thats his “set” ..he’s a dancer, a new kid, and worth 22 million on top of an admittedly hot temper and lax guidance..
Im just missing out on the urgency. Yeah, he should chill, but thats only to quiet the ppl who dont remember what it was like to be young, wild and free, imo.
Do yall follow the rich kids of instagram/tumblr? Yall have no idea what these kids are up to..
@lovezoe
Sho was sho was
@ Naija…I wish they would revamp it I love me some Joan and Toni Childs
I cannot recover from this post

@Prynn..Karyn White had Stephanie Mills Horse Face Syndrome.
Wasnt she married to…Jimmy Jam? Terry Lewis? Some 80’s producer…I forget. But I hated that song too.
I think I hated the Karyn White Supawoman song cause een at like 9-10 I had the mindset of “Nukka there some coffee in the kitchen, and after you pour yourself some… brang me a cup too.”
She was doing too much in that song. Coffee, breakfast, newspaper, cry-nin over his sorry mean azz…nah son.

Never heard this one, only “Soon as I get home” is Faith one unless its the same. Im guilty on that Superwoman song, one of the few songs I remember singing as a little girl

Sandra it is not good to kick someone while they down. See now you gonna make Tina call CB over and put that old pootahthang on him so that he can fire Bu
At this point, I think it would be pretty tough for Chris Brown, to win me back. I will admit, I was a big fan of Chris brown. Get rid of his bad attitude and maybe he can win some of his fans back. Good Luck Chris!
Ps.. His cd is…
@SansraRose Never mix business with pleasure. Her P**sy got old….
I say good luck to them.. I kinda like Bu cause him and his brother are both about their business and I haven’t heard any of their artists (or past artists) say anything about them and their business practices. And Chris’s management has needed a fresh take and a complete redo for awhile now
Morning everybody
Meh,
ok.
Mornin’ all.
