Chris Brown took a momentary break from his cryptic Twitter war with Rihanna to shoot a music video today.

Chris and company crowded a Compton rooftop to film a video for a tribute single to Aaliyah, while fans and passerby alike swarmed to the scene in high numbers. Coincidentally, his rival (and bar brawl partner) Drake has written multiple songs in the late singer's memory. He's also tattooed a portrait of her face on his back.

The R&B bad boy is currently in hot water with his Hollywood Hills neighbors for painting eight-foot tall, brightly colored monsters on a wall along the side of his home. They should be happy he's not shooting a music video on his rooftop.
