Rapper Fabolous spoke to the New York Post about his friendship with controversial R&B star Chris Brown. While not condoning anything in Brown’s past, Fabolous acknowledged that public image should have no bearing on their bond as friends.

“I can’t wager my friendship on a public or media persona of him,” Fabolous said. “Those people who have bad reputations, of course you wouldn’t want to be around. But I don’t believe he’s a bad person. I believe, even if you’re looking at the situation with Rihanna, things happen and you move on.”

“Whatever happened in the past is the past . . . even Rihanna’s moved on. The public has perceptions of people off of what they see, not what they know,” Fabolous added.
