STR8 TALK: FOXY BROWN, EXPLAIN THE F*CKERY?!

STR8 TALK: FOXY BROWN, EXPLAIN THE F*CKERY?!

Words by Zunnania

Okay! What is the deal with Foxy Brown? I’m just so confused! How should I start this post?… probably from the beginning. Like many of you, I loved her the moment Foxy Boogie Brown came out! Loved her fake Jamaican accent songs! Loved “The Firm” collaboration. Loved that Jay-Z loved her. Loved that she came from Brooklyn. Loved that I knew people- that new people- that knew her. Foxy, unlike Kim (who I also love) was real and accessible. It felt like, I could have gone to school with someone like that. She was in a sense, “The Girl Next Door” or rather, “The Girl Down The Block”. I’m even inclined to believe that she possibly wrote some of her lyrics. To me, she could have been the next Queen Latifiah… okay wait; maybe I’ve gone too far! But, she could have at least been the next Eve. Acting career, makeup endorsements, and Ill Na Na fashion line! Some call her a bird, but she’s a bird that has staying power. Or rather, she HAD staying power. Now foxy is -dare I say it- on her way out. Out, like Charlie. Out, like Amil-lion! Instead of making raps, diss tracks, mixtapes… or attacking Nicki Minaj for the pr, she has:

Earned 80 Hours of community service for spitting on two hotel workers in ‘97

Pulled a Whitney, Britney and Lindsay, going in and out of rehab in 2000

Crashed a Range Rover in Flatbush (yes Flatbush, that’s why I love her) Brooklyn, and thus arrested for driving without a license in the same year (2000)

Banned from Jamaica after she tried to evade a body search at the airport and punched a policewoman in the stomach in 2002

Pulled a Naomi by attacking two manicurists over 20 dollars. Received 3 years of probation and ordered to take anger management.
After expecting female rapper Jacki-O to bow down to Fox, a fight broke out at a radio station in Miami.
We all felt bad (well at least I did) when Foxy loss her hearing in 2005. But, then she assaulted a beauty supply store employee and plead guilty in 2007, and followed that up with throwing a Blackberry at a neighbor and almost running over a stroller with a BABY in it! A BABY in it!



Then sent to jail in ‘O7 for violating her probation, got into a prison fight, cursed out the correction officers and sent to solitary confinement.

Now, I can’t really blame her for any of what happened in jail, because that is my strategy if I ever get locked up.
I know there are two sides to every story and if someone comb through our lives with a microscope, we would all seem like we need to be locked up in an insane asylum. BUT, when you are famous you have access to not only money, but also the best pr and marketing agents in the world. Your team of experts would be able to spin whatever craziness into a justified and somewhat relate-able story. And even if the world doesn’t buy it-your fans will. Now as I stated in the beginning of the post, I’m a fan! And I’m not buying it! It has been two years since she’s been out of jail. But recently (July 22, 2010), Foxy decided to visit her arch-enemy (who already had a order of protection on her) and according to reports cursed her out and even mooned her. Out on $5,000 bail, Foxy just preformed at BB Kings. To which she attested to in court this morning by telling the judge and the entire courtroom:
“We just had a sold out concert at BB King’s,” she added. “LeBron James couldn’t make it, but I’m here.”

We’ll what other “great” antics Ms. Inga will pull before her next court date scheduled for January 28, 2011.



As far as her performance at BB Kings, I have one thing to say…what the hell is she wearing?!!!! Realtalk, I love me some Foxy, but she needs to lay low for a bit, fire the people on her team including her stylist and PR, and develop a comeback strategy. Idk, do something…

I’m just disappointed and confused, can someone explain? Foxy where you at?!
