2021 Soul Train Awards: 5 Best Dance Moments From ‘Best Dance Performance’ Nominee Chris Brown

The R&B singer/songwriter took home the award for ‘Song of the Year’ at the 2020 Soul Train Awards.

When it comes to dancing, only a few could prove to be an even match for Grammy-award winner Chris Brown. The Virginia native’s ability to not only sing and write, but dance and dominate any stage he performs on as well, is a skillset only held by a few acts in the music industry. Backflips, front flips, you name it, and Chris has perhaps done it during a show twice, if not multiple times throughout his set.

Thanks to his mind-blowing talent, the “Go Crazy” singer earned himself a nomination at the 2021 Soul Train Awards for “Best Dance Performance.” The R&B crooner is up against several other heavy hitters, including Normani and Usher. Join us as we take a look back at some of Chris’ past performances that prove why he deserves his nomination.
