NEWARK, N.J. — Singer Chris Brown was suspended in the air during a song following a technical malfunction.
Brown was performing his song “Under the Influence” when his wires malfunctioned during his concert Tuesday evening at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey., according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Concert crews brought a ladder out to unhook Brown and get him off the wires safely, according to Billboard.
Brown however didn’t let the technical issues get in the way. He performed the entire song, Billboard reported. Brown was still very frustrated by the circumstances.
At the end of his show, Brown told the audience that he was upset about what happened but made light of it the best he could, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The technical issue came about a week after Brown started his tour on June 5 in Detroit, Michigan, according to KTLA.
