(Extra) "Extra's" Mario Lopez sat down with a very candid Chris Brown to talk about his new album, "X." No topic was off limits. Chris opened up about his three-month stint in a Los Angeles jail earlier this year on a probation violation, calling it "a humbling experience." "It was definitely one of the things I'll never forget� I think for me it's now about what's the purpose and what's the goal that Chris Brown as a person and Chris Brown as an artist is trying to portray."

Mario asked what Chris learned about himself, "For me I just learned that nobody's invincible, everybody's equal, at the same time no amount of celebrity status, no amount of how many fans love you, no amount of anything can deter you away from the real if you make a mistake and nobody's excusable� I think for me it was a humbling experience for me to become a man and mature."

Chris is still working on himself and his anger, saying he really believes in therapy. "I see my therapist twice a week, it's amazing and I was at first adamant about it, like, 'I don't want to go to therapy, I'm not going to talk to anybody,' but as I went through it and kept talking, it's actually very therapeutic."

He added, "For me it was more of an opportunity for me to understand my feelings and understand what I was dealing with in my own life� at a time I didn't know how to put those feelings out there, I didn't know how to say it, I didn't know how to express myself without it being anger or aggression because I felt a certain way, but now it's more of me being able to control it and understand it."
