Others spoke on a defining moment during documentary where Brown speaks candidly about his infamous assault on his then-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009.
The singer was charged with felony assault following the physical altercation, which took place following the annual Clive Davis Pre-Grammy party that year.
Brown gave a surprisingly detailed description of the highly-publicised incident, prompting fans to commend his honesty.
