Brown continued with his song 'Under The Influence' as several crew members brought out a ladder to get the singer down.

The 35-year-old star was seen talking furiously to one of the tour workers and even pointed an angry finger at the person concerned.

Brown didn’t let the incident ruin his show and went on to complete his concert without any more hiccups.

He went on to perform his hit numbers, including 'Go Crazy,' 'No Guidance,' 'Loyal,' 'She Ain’t You,' 'With You' and his 2005 debut single 'Run It!'

Arya Starr and Maeta opened for Brown who will play two nights at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn and wrap the tour with two shows at the Crypto.com Arena on August 6 and 7, according the The Hollywood Reporter.



 

Fans hail Chris Brown for keeping his cool during wire glitch

Netizens praised Brown for his mature approach to the sticky situation during the concert.

One fan wrote on Facebook, “The way he continues, shows he actually has talent. I had no idea he was touring. He is the type that doesn't need the industry. He has natural talent.”

"Things go bad all the time at different events, concerts, runway shows, etc. half the time you just don’t see it. You just roll with it," a user wrote.

Another lauded the star saying, "This man didn’t lose his cool, he was hanging out, chilling, singing his song. Y’all need to do better and leave this man alone and let him be the amazing performer he is without dumb people trying to always put him down!"

“So he was stuck in air with faulty equipment and he was supposed to be what .. cordial,” one said, referring to Brown getting angry at one of the crew members. 

Another person stressed, "Yal always trying to bring this man down. He handled himself just fine. He was more concerned with letting his FANS down than himself, no pun. They left him hanging there too long when they have a plan in place if things malfunction, he shouldn't have to sign to nobody to help him."
