Machat alleges that Tresvant was brought in to sing some of Brown's vocals, as he claims Brown had been strung out on drugs. Machat's story contradicts what happened with Brown as far back as 1989, where he was interviewed by Rolling Stone during the filming of the video for "On Our Own".
Machat suggests that Tresvant took over some of Brown’s vocal duties because Brown was using drugs. This perspective contrasts with earlier accounts involving Brown, who was interviewed by Rolling Stone in 1989 regarding the music video.
