Lembro bem do ano 2010. Saíram três mixtapes: In My Zone, Fan of a Fan e In My Zone 2. Uma no início, outra no meio e outra no fim do ano. Tenho um carinho especial por elas. Foi o ano em que eu ''voltei'' a ouvir Chris, já era fã antes, mas fiquei bem chateado com o caso da Rihanna e fiquei um ano sem ouvir. Depois disto e até hoje não perco nada.
