Next to You (Chris Brown song)

Last updated

"Being able to collab with [Bieber] was great. He's a young, energetic cat, so being able to work with him was incredible [...] He's doing his thing at a young age, and I was doing mine at a young age, so being able to see him come up is dope".

-Chris Brown on working with Justin Bieber on "Next to You". [1]

The song was written by Brown and singer Sevyn Streeter. [2] They entirely composed and recorded the track, then Bieber added his vocals on it.

Music video

Background

The music video for "Next to You" was directed by Colin Tilley and filmed at the Universal Studios in Los Angeles, [10] [11] and upper Manhattan. [12] On May 10, 2011, Bieber's manager confirmed plans for a music video via Twitter. [13] In an interview with MTV News, Tilley spoke briefly about the video, saying "Tomorrow, I'm shooting New Boyz and Chris Brown ... then Justin Bieber and Chris Brown, together ... I can't tell you anything about that yet, but it's going to happen. It's gonna be big. It's gonna be big. I can't say anything else." [14] On May 21, 2011, Brown posted two photos from the shoot via Twitter, showing him and Bieber standing among overturned cars in a path of destruction. [10] However, the unfinished version of the music video leaked onto the internet on June 6, [15] and the final cut was premiered on June 17, 2011. [12]

The video begins with Brown and Bieber interacting with their girlfriends while the song "All Back" by Chris Brown is playing. Bieber's love interest is removed by her father, who reprimands, "You will never see him again. You understand that?" Brown is thinking of his girlfriend (played by Shannon Elizabeth [16] ) before the apocalypse occurs, which is characterized by land fissures, buildings toppling down and fiery scenery. Brown searches for his love interest who is then hit by the car that Bieber's girlfriend is in. Brown tries to save her by leaping over an enormous fissure, but, failing to do so, he falls into it. Near the end of the video, Bieber's girlfriend finds him on top of the roof of a building and it ends with them reuniting and kissing. Interspersed are scenes of Brown and Bieber dancing amongst the destruction. [15] [17] Jamie Peck of MTV wrote of the video, "The whole thing is delightfully ridiculous in its cinematic drama". [12] The video was nominated for International Artist Video of the Year at the 2012 MuchMusic Video Awards. [18]

Critical reception

"Next To You" was met with critical acclaim. Brad Wete of Entertainment Weekly coined the song as "thumping" and said that "Brown and guest Justin Bieber trade verses assuring their ladies of their dedication." [19] Joanne Dorken of MTV News UK said "It seems that everything Justin Bieber touches turns to gold at the moment and this cutesy ballad is no exception." [20] Dorken complimented how well the song showed the blending of the pair's voices, and she commented, as "the most 'pop' song on the LP, we are hoping Chris decides to make this a single ... a sure fire hit." [20] Nadia Noir of WNOW-FM wrote, "What do you get when you combine two of pop's best-looking/greatest dancers, the sexy rasp of Justin Bieber, and a dance-jam/love-song? A combination of all the best elements of music!" [8] Nick Levine of BBC Music called the collaboration a "wholesome-as-homemade-chutney hook-up". [21] While commending that the album had "something for everyone", Jody Rosen of Rolling Stone called "Next to You" a "tender love declaration." [22] Bri LaPelusa called the song a "dreamy ballad" and praised the singer's vocal performances, saying that it showcased Brown and Bieber's "angelic" voices. [5] She went on to add that "Next to You" "might be affirmation that Chris Brown is once again an accepted celebrity." [5]

Praising the lyrics, Eliot Glazer of MTV Buzzworthy defined them "affectionate" and "universal". [4] Despite complimenting the record, Eric Henderson of Slant Magazine said Brown was unable to capture the "majesty of 'Forever'" with the "pop-appeal" of the song. [23] Jon Caramanica of The New York Times wrote that the song does compliment Brown's voice, but not Bieber's. [24]
