Chris Brown sat down with Larry King in his first interview since his February 8 arrest for assaulting his ex-girlfriend, pop star Rihanna.

In a “no-holds barred” interview that will air next week, the R&B crooner spoke to the talk show host at CNN’s studios in Los Angeles. Brown was accompanied by his mother Joyce Hawkins and his attorney Mark Geragos.

In June, the singer was found guilty of brutally attacking Rihanna after a furious fight after a pre-Grammy party. Brown was accused of viciously punching, biting, and threatening to kill Rihanna. Earlier this week, the “Forever” hitmaker was sentenced to five years probation and six months hard community labor for the assault.

Chris Brown’s Larry King Live interview will air Wednesday September 2, @ 9 p.m. ET on CNN.
