Frank Ocean not pressing charges against Chris Brown
Frank Ocean has suggested that he will not be pressing charges against Chris Brown.
The singer took to his Tumblr account to address the pair’s recent confrontation, where on Jan 27 at the Westlake Studio in Los Angeles, Brown allegedly assaulted Ocean over a parking space.
It was reported that Ocean was ready to press charges, but on Saturday the 25-year-old singer released a statement on his Tumblr page, announcing that all he wants is “peace.”
“AS A CHILD I THOUGHT IF SOMEONE JUMPED ME IT WOULD RESULT IN ME MURDERING OR MUTILATING A MAN. BUT AS A MAN I AM NOT A KILLER. I’M AN ARTIST AND A MODERN PERSON. I’LL CHOOSE SANITY. NO CRIMINAL CHARGES. NO CIVIL LAWSUIT. FORGIVENESS, ALBEIT DIFFICULT, IS WISDOM. PEACE, ALBEIT TRITE, IS WHAT I WANT IN MY SHORT LIFE. PEACE.”
Ocean and Brown have been battling it out on Twitter for months now, with Brown even releasing what some thought was a homophobic statement after Ocean came out last year. Still, the singers both seem to be apologetic and ready to move on.
