[5] It is backed by synth chords and "eerie harmonies", [9] with Brown's "smooth vocals" [8] making use of auto-tune effects. [11] According to Sara D. Anderson of AOL Radio, the song contains lyrical content about "breaking it off with a girl after failed attempts to make the relationship work". [1] In the first verse, Brown sings: "All that bullshit is for the birds, you ain't nothing but a vulture / Always hoping for the worst, waiting for me to fuck up / You'll regret the day when I find another girl, that knows just what I need / She knows just what I mean." [1]

Music video

The accompanying music videos for "Deuces" and "No Bullshit" premiered simultaneously online on May 24, 2010, and both were directed by Colin Tilley. [6] The video was shot in black-and-white, and is set at the Los Angeles River. [12] It begins with a woman walking down the river's culvert. [12] As the song begins, Brown, wearing a dark sleeveless jacket, sunglasses, and light-colored pants, sings his verse while standing against a car with Tyga and Kevin McCall. [12] This scene is intercut with scenes of Brown singing alone at the culvert, wearing a hooded jumper and skinny jeans. [12] During the chorus, Brown is seen dancing in a tunnel. As Tyga raps his verse, he is sitting on a graffitied concrete barrier, while Brown appears in the background. [12] This scene is intercut with scenes of Tyga, Brown and McCall walking down a street with a lowrider driving slowly behind them. [12] As the second chorus begins, earlier scenes from the video are intercut with each other. [12] McCall then begins to rap his verse while leaning against a wall, which is then intercut with scenes of him rapping from previous settings of the video. [12] During the final chorus of the song, more scenes of Brown dancing in the tunnel are shown. [12]

A Call to Action" benefit concert as part of a set list, which included "Say Goodbye", "Yo (Excuse Me Miss)", "Gimme That", "Kiss Kiss", "Take You Down" and "Forever". [6] [13] The concert was organized by Brown to help with continued relief efforts in Haiti following the January 2010 earthquake. [13] Jayson Rodriguez of MTV News wrote that "the superstar singer couldn't have been more giving, doing his best to please the packed house". [13] On December 3, 2010, Brown, wearing a charcoal grey suit with Adidas sneakers, performed the song with Tyga and Kevin McCall as part of his set list at the Cali Christmas concert. [14] In March 2011, Brown and Tyga performed "Deuces" on the television music show, 106 & Park . [15] "Deuces" was also added to the set list of Brown's F.A.M.E. Tour. [16] In his review of the tour, Jeremy Trucker of The Baltimore Sun criticized Brown for lip syncing his performances, and remained unconvinced that Brown's "talent was special enough to warrant his continued, well, fame". [16] In April 2012, Brown performed "Deuces" at the Supafest tour in Australia as part of a set list, which included "Run It!", "Yeah 3x", "Look at Me Now", "She Ain't You", "Wet the Bed" and "Turn Up the Music", among others. [17] A reviewer for Rap-Up magazine praised his set, writing "A tatted Chris Brown thrilled with his chart-topping hits". [18]

"Deuces" received mixed reviews. Joanne Dorken of MTV UK wrote that the song was "a good platform for Brown to show off his silky-smooth vocals". [8] Hannah Ash of The Harber Herald called it "a great rap track" with "fantastic beats". [19] In an album review for F.A.M.E., Mark Edward Nero of About.com wrote that "Deuces" was one of "the album's best material". [20] A reviewer for Girlfriend magazine wrote that "Deuces" along with "Yeah 3x" and "Beautiful People", were the most "worth listening to" of the album. [21] Mesfin Fekadu of the Associated Press labeled "Deuces" as one of the "best songs" of 2010, [22] while August Brown of Los Angeles Times called it his "favorite single" of 2010. [9] According to Steve Jones of USA Today , the song shows that "Brown is taking it to the next phase". [23] Sean Fennessey of The Washington Post characterised "Deuces" as "the effervescent kiss-off" track. [24] Shahryar Rizvi of Dallas Observer was critical of the song, writing that it "sounds minimally produced and quiet. As a result, it sounds kind of boring". [25]

Critics also speculated that the lyrics of the song were about Brown's former relationship with pop singer Rihanna. Becky Bain of Idolator described "Deuces" as a "bitter woman-hating track" that could be "about Rihanna or just females in general", and wrote that "as damning as some of the lyrics are, this emotional jam is actually a step in the right direction for Brown". [26] Anthony Benigno of The Faster Times observed that the song could be a reference to "the Rihanna incident", writing "is it about RiRi? Maybe, maybe not. He ain't telling, in any case". [27] Jayson Rodriguez of MTV News wrote that "Deuces" was indeed a "standout" track from the Fan of a Fan mixtape, and that it "appears to be a dig at Rihanna". [28] The song was nominated for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration at the 53rd Grammy Awards, [29] and Best Collaboration at the 2011 BET Awards. [30]

[31] The remix appeared online on October 1, 2010, [32] and was released as a digital EP on November 2, 2010. [33] A day after the "all-star" remix premiered online, American R&B singer Ciara released her own remix of the song, which was supposed to be included on her Basic Instinct mixtape. [34] American R&B singer Teairra Marí also recorded her own remix of "Deuces" for her mixtape, The Night Before X-Mas (2010). [35]
