Chris Brown was just convicted in a court of law ... after pleading guilty to attacking a music producer in a London nightclub three years ago, TMZ has confirmed.

The rapper and his co-defendant, Omololu Akinlolu, appeared Friday in London's Southwark Crown ​Court, where they copped to a charge of affray relating to an attack on Abraham Diaw in London's Tape ​nightclub in February 2023, according to a court spokesperson.

The two admitted they "used or ‌threatened unlawful violence towards another and their conduct taken together was such as would cause a person of reasonable firmness ... ​to fear ​for their ⁠personal safety."

Prosecutors agreed to dismiss the more serious charge of attempting to inflict grievous bodily harm and a lesser charge of assault causing actual bodily harm. 

Brown and ​Akinlolu are set to be sentenced on October 26.
