Robert Glasper Turns Chris Brown’s Grammy Diss Into Sold-Out Event For Charity
Robert Glasper is using Chris Brown’s ignorance about his existence for good.
After Glasper’s LP Black Radio III won “Best R&B Album” at the 2023 Grammys, Brown took offense, considering his LP Breezy (Deluxe) was also nominated in the category.
In an Instagram Story post, CB expressed his anger over the loss and shared a Google search of Glasper’s name and asked his followers, "Bro who the f**k is this? Y'all playing. Who da f**k is this?"
He also shared a written message with the same question: "IMA KEEP KICKING YALL ASS! RESPECTFULLY."

Though the "Under The Influence" singer later shared an IG DM screenshot of him apologizing to Glasper, the jazz pianist/singer had some fun with Brown's meltdown.
Via Instagram, the 44-year-old told his followers he was selling limited edition T-shirts reading, "Who TF is Robert Glasper?" By Tuesday, he announced that they all sold out, with part of the proceeds being donated to the Community Music Center of New Orleans.
"Thanks for the support," he wrote on Instagram. "A portion of the proceeds from this shirt will be donated to the Community Music Center of New Orleans. A nonprofit created to share the music culture and music education in New Orleans, providing free music lessons to underserved youth. I can't thank y'all enough for supporting this cause."
