The rapper made his appearance wearing a black and red Michael Jackson-inspired outfit.

He thanked his fans for their support and appreciated them for attending the show.

"Despite my past and stuff like that, I appreciate all of y'all. How long we gonna do this for? We gonna do this forever!" the Daily Express quoted him as saying.

He had earlier announced that he would do a series of Fan Appreciation gigs across the U.S in recent future.

Brown's first show of the tour is scheduled to take place in Houston, Texas on 14 November.
