Chris Brown initially answered by calling the assertion, “Cap.”

“I stay the hell up out of that argument,” he said at the 1:03-mark of the clip. “I’ma keep it 100. I kind of back off of it. My personal take on it, I wouldn’t even be breathing or even be able to sing a song if that man didn’t exist. So, I don’t know if they look at it as a [Michael] Jordan and Kobe [Bryant] thing but I don’t.”
