When the cold weather sets in, Refueled's "Summer of Love" issue offers a creative escape that blends personal experiences and collaboration with the artists who inspire Chris Brown.

“Inspiration is ever changing,” says Brown. “The one thing I do work hard at is being present in the moment and observing my surroundings. Things will seep in, whether you realize it or not. Then unconsciously, you're able to pull from them.”

More than just a magazine, "Refueled" is Brown’s personal journal—a place where art, culture, and community come together.
