Music video series[edit]
Brown directed and released eight music videos for Royalty, serializing them to construct a linear story.[58][59]
Plot[edit]
Chris Brown is first seen drowning his sorrows at a bar alone when a mysterious woman buys him a drink and gives it to him after slipping a drug into it. After reluctantly drinking it, Brown loses control of his senses and leaves with the woman to her home, but Brown is under the effect of the drug and sees everything in a psychedelic way as his eyes turn temporarily neon green ('Liquor'). After the night spent with the mysterious woman, Brown then takes a taxi home, only to find a girl he’s been seeing throwing his clothes off a balcony because she did not know where he was. Rather than get into an argument, Brown decides to gather his boys and go out. Afterwards, he starts dancing in an alley and moves his way into a laundromat with his crew before taking the stage at a downtown theater and meeting up with Dan Bilzerian ('Zero').
After Brown leaves his crew, another woman catches his attention. He follows her to a building containing a high tech fighting arena. Suddenly, an old man's face appears on the screen and tells Brown that he owns the substance that was slipped into his drink back at the bar and wants it back via Brown's blood. Realizing he was tricked in the first place, Brown is forced to fight the old man's henchmen, but easily dispatches them with his heightened physical abilities derived from the drug and escapes, though the old man tells the second woman to follow him ('Fine By Me'). Brown then calls his girlfriend and heads over to her place, where they make love through the night ('Back to Sleep').
Brown wakes up and goes for a walk, but is caught by the old man's henchwoman who drugs him again with a dust-like substance. In another trance-like sequence, Brown is dragged into another dark room by the henchwoman, inter-cut with clips of him and rapper Solo Lucci performing and dancing to 'Wrist'. She seduces him as he is tied to a chair, then tries to slit his throat, but Brown glitches out of his trap and the henchwoman is bound to the chair in his stead, allowing his escape. Brown calls his girlfriend again to try to explain everything, but she is fed up and claims she is 'done', ignoring any further calls from him. She then meets another man who asks her out on a date while she works out with her friends, but the man stands her up when they are supposed to meet. Brown sees his dejected girlfriend walk into a club and with his crew's encouragement, reconciles with her inside the club and leads a dance number ('Anyway'). While Brown and his girlfriend leave, the man from earlier bumps into them and upon hearing the man call his girlfriend 'love', Brown punches him, which leads to another argument resulting in Brown's girlfriend leaving him for good.
While Brown sulks, another of his friends (Scott Disick) calls him, inviting him to go to a house party that coincidentally takes place at his own house, which Brown reluctantly accepts as 'Picture Me Rollin' starts to play. While Brown cheers himself up at the party, the old man himself appears and confronts Brown, saying 'we can do this the easy way or the hard way'. Brown's friends, including Disick, French Montana and ASAP Rocky, step in and toss the thug out while Brown escapes.
Brown is then seen tossing in his sleep inter-cut with flashbacks from the earlier videos, in addition to new footage of his girlfriend struggling to accept her pregnancy. He then wakes up in his bed and finds a toddler, revealed to be his own daughter Royalty, sitting next to him. Initially confused, he realizes the previous experiences were likely a dream and begins to play with Royalty in a musical montage ('Little More (Royalty)'), proclaiming his fatherly love for her and how she brings out the best in him. The video series ends as the same green flash in Brown's eyes from earlier appears for a second in Royalty's eyes.

Royalty received mixed reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 59, which indicates 'mixed or average reviews', based on 5 reviews. Allmusic editor Andy Kellman expressed a mixed response saying that the album 'is designed more to please Brown's devout fans than illustrate growth', and called it a qualitative step back from previous solo album X.[21]Los Angeles Times's Mikael Wood expressed a positive response, and complimented its music as 'a convincing bad-guy energy that’s all the more potent for its sweet, often luscious textures'.[66]Complex's Michael Arcenaux expressed a negative response, describing the album as a 'mistake' and calling it a 'directionless mess', saying that 'Chris Brown has all the components to be excellent, he’s a decent singer with a nice tone, a proven songwriter, and an excellent performer, but rarely is that reflected on his albums'.[67] Mike Pizzo of Las Vegas Weekly said that on the album Brown 'doesn’t attempt to make a cohesive album, but looks to solidify his position by producing another handful of radio-ready cuts, attempting to satisfy multiple audiences at once'.[68]
Brad Wete of Billboard praised the album's sound, but he was dissatisfied towards its lyrical content, saying 'Admittedly, a rich 26-year-old bachelor’s life is full of romps with women and wild nights. Fame, access, and talent bring those with ease. This seems to be an art imitating life thing. But if and when Brown ascends to the next level, it likely will be because he starts talking about the morning after. It’s time for him to wake up.'[61] Marcus Dowling of HipHopDX on his review has expressed the same concepts of Brad Wete's review, saying that 'While showing progression on Royalty, Chris Brown still is quite far from being the best man and artist that he can be.'[63]
