London: Singer Chris Brown says that his stay in prison has made him a mature person.
In an interview to Billboard magazine, Brown, who was released June 2, admits that the experience made him realise that he is like everyone else, reports contactmusic.com.
"I'm just more appreciative of the things I'm blessed with and the things I do - music, being able to take care of my family, being able to see my friends and family," he said.
Brown has no qualms in saying that he considers himself a role model even though he admits he isn't perfect.
The singer was jailed earlier this year following his dismissal from a court-ordered rehab stint for bad behaviour, which was part of a probation violation case stemming from his 2009 assault conviction for attacking ex-girlfriend Rihanna.
