When Chris Brown said "I lost everything." Is he including his mind and class in that statement? Probably not, but one has a right to ask. It could all be an act. It's too soon to tell if the singer will stand behind his apologies, but he is fessing up to his past regrets.

The R&B singer visited the set of NBC's the "Today" show this Monday morning to promote the music video for the latest track, "Fine China."

Matt Lauer took the opportunity to ask Brown candid questions about his current relationship status with R&B pop princess Rihanna -- and of course about the incident that took place in a car on a Los Angeles street back in 2009.

Brown responded humbly.

"I think everybody is entitled to their opinion. For me, it's just a learning process."

Brown was quick to accept the situation that put him in bad graces with not only Rihanna fans, but his own fans alike.

"You know, I have to just take it one day at a time. I can't make everybody like me ... it's about me being positive."

The music couple has been under intense scrutiny from the public eye after openly announcing their reunited love status despite the 2009 domestic abuse incident that made Brown a convicted felon. Brown is trying not to let the last few years of bad press get to him. After completing a 52-week domestic violence counseling courts, he assures he will not let history repeat itself.

Brown stands behind his personal growth.

"Well, you know, for me I've been humbled by the whole experience, you know? From me losing everything, you know, to me having to regain, you know, public opinion or whatever it is. But most importantly, you know, knowing that what I did was totally wrong, you know, and having to kinda deal with myself and kinda forgive myself in the same breath. And, you know, being able to apologize to, you know, Rihanna, and being able to be that man that can be a man, you know?"

He's doing his best to clean up his reputation, and it doesn't hurt Rihanna is at his side while he does it. We'll just have to wait and see.

His new album "X," scheduled to hit the streets this summer, is a mix of maturity and experience. From the title of his track "Fine China," one can assume where his muse originates.
