There’s more … Brown was also presented with a painting from street artist MadSteez … a painting that had been sold for $25,000.
The event, in honor of Brown’s Haute Living cover, raised more than $160,000 for his Amer-I-Can foundation.
So what does Mr. Brown think about turning 80?
“It’s challenging, because you can’t do physically, obviously, things that you could do,” he admitted. “If I’m coming through an airport and the guy says, ‘Mr. Brown, you want a wheelchair?’ What you mean, man? I don’t want no wheelchair. It’s like, damn.”
