Chris Brown’s fifth studio album, Fortune, is #1 on the Billboard 200 chart a week after its release on July 3.  The album becomes the second #1 U.S. release of Brown’s career after the first, F.A.M.E., topped the chart in 2011.

Reservoir songwriter and producer Danja is the mastermind behind Fortune’s third single, “Till I Die.”  “Till I Die” follows the energetic dance-pop lead single “Turn Up The Music” and down-tempo R&B follow up “Sweet Love.”   Stylistically, “Till I Die” is a departure from both, featuring futuristic sound effects and militant percussion over an airy hip-hop track.  Guest verses featuring Big Sean and Wiz Khalifa lend extra star-power to the song.

The Celebrity Café calls “Till I Die” a “hip-hop success,” while the Chicago Tribune cites “genius producer Danja” for crafting the song into one of the most “daring” tracks on Fortune.  Brown dedicates the accompanying music video to Beastie Boy Adam Yauch, who passed away in May of this year.
