Musician and actor, Chris Brown has announced that his upcoming album, X will be released on May 5 of this year.

Brown tweeted out the news to fans yesterday.

This will be the sixth studio album from Brown and it has been delayed a few times since it went into production. The first release date was set for July but that didn't come together in time. Brown also sent shockwaves through his fan base when he tweeted that this would most likely be his last album, Billboard reported.

Three singles that are featured on the album include "Love More" which features Nicki Minaj, "Don't Think They Know" featuring Aaliyah and "Fine China," which was already released as a single off of X.

Brown has also worked with Timbaland, Danja, Diplo BAM and Drumma Boy on the upcoming album.

Complex reported that Brown also released a new single with Tyga earlier this week titled, "Bitches."
