Chris Brown will release his fourth studio album on Monday 21 March.

F.A.M.E. is the follow-up to 2009's Graffiti and features collaborations with the likes of Justin Bieber, Lil Wayne, Timbaland and Ludacris.

The record has 18 tracks including lead single, Yeah 3X, and Chipmunk track Champion.

The R&B singer had his restraining order eased last month, imposed on him after he attacked ex-girlfriend Rihanna before the Grammys two years ago.

The court ruling remains in effect until August 2014 when his probation is scheduled to end.

Describing the new album, Chris Brown said he thought some of the tracks sounded more grown-up.

He said: "There are songs from all genres: from street records to others that are real soul, 808 heavy that you'll hear in the club, and then others are strictly for the heart; songs that your mom and grandma can listen to and love.

"Collectively, F.A.M.E. is me giving fans every aspect of who I am as far as my art, my culture, and my concepts."

Lead album track Deuces has already sold 1.8 million copies in combined digital/mobile sales in the US, spending 10 weeks at number one and earning Brown one of three Grammy nominations.
