Foxy Brown - Star Cry
Artist: Foxy Brown
Producer: Stereotypes
Album: Brooklyn's Don Diva
Label: Black Roses Music
“You never seen a star cry?/ I gave you my life, and my blood, sweat and tears/Hip-Hop’s bad girl for ten f*ckin’ years,” beseeches the currently incarcerated rapper, Foxy Brown, on her new single Star Cry. If it isn’t enough that Brooklyn’s Don Diva will be locked away when her new album drops on February 5th, a New York judge recently denied Brown’s request to travel to California for medical purposes involving her cochlear implant. Regardless, the self-proclaimed bad girl is earnest and telling about all the controversy she has endured over the last few years. Backed by a simplistic beat courtesy of the Stereotypes, Brown might very well have the most ironically-titled single in the history of rap music.

Foxy is probably the best female rapper in the game; She has so many more flows than any other female I have seen. Remy Ma comes close and Kim does her thing now and then, but Foxy was the TRUTH. Her last album was her worst, so I am not sure whether or not she can pick up the pace. This track is a good start to an album. Definitely not going to be a single because of its gloomy sound, but it would be a good addition to an album. You can hear the story and pain behind the lyrics. This is Hot and I am feelin what she got to say! RESPECT!

Kaje, don't be fooled by her being in jail. Foxy recorded this album in a studio prior to her incareration. This wasn't done with a hand held and headphones (cough, Shine.)

Fox Boogie use to be that chick but lost it when Spragga Benz came into her life and flipped her style-up to dancehall. Tracks like "Tables ah Turn" & "Yeah". Those tracks were good but when Spragga dumped her, he left behind a wounded solider. She just recently did dancehall jump-offs with Barrington Levy & Movado. Now she's trying to get back her hip hop style? Foxy don't know which way to go. She's lost.

This is a pretty good record! I heard this foxy song called "Bk Made Me" years ago, it was more personal i prefer that to this. Still, this a pretty good track and I dont think she wants ppl's sympathy its not like shes a murderer, she just beat up a few ppl n got into some fights. does that make her any less of a human being than any of us?
oh n i like the fact that she flips hiphop and raggae it shows her versatility. I believe she is from trinidad so it is in her background but its not like she follows one formula and that is artisty itself if u ask me. I say if she continues to work hard she will be back on her way. |

Inga is Haitian. She lied about her background and her fatal deafness. "Oh my God. It's a miracle! I Can hear again! Just in time to perform in concert with Jay Z." Foxy was crying out before she was imprisoned and she's crying out now. She used to be the iish!! I hope she does work really hard and be back on her way.

^^ Inga is NOT Haitian. She is from TRINIDAD, so she is allowed to incorporate the west-indian influence in her music with or without Spragga Benz. Where did you get haitian from? *confused* ... And her deafness was not a lie, It's a procedure, have you ever heard of corrective hearing surgery? One of my friends had to have the same procedure done. She still doesn't have her complete hearing back, she wears a device. You should pick up a book or even google it. You'd be surprised how much information there is on it. Her hearing loss is also the prime reason why her voice has been completely altered.
And truth be told I can't be mad at her for wanting to get out of prison? Name ONE person would wanna sit in there? |

Awwwwwwwww.... (sniff, sniff). What a sad story. Foxy does not want to own-up to her nationality. Even Google, "the great internet god" can't tell you that. By the way, i'm not hating on Foxy, she should stick to one story. And you're right, no one wants to be in jail; but if you can't do the time.. don't do the crime. ~Gangstaz don't cry. (On a really serious note.. sorry to hear about your friend. Hope she recovers 100%. My blessings go out to her.)

LOL.. what are you talking about? Foxy says time and again that she is from Trinidad. I listen to Hot 97 radio in NY, and everytime she is up there she bigs up her people. "Trini Massive" and even her songs have raggae/dancehall/soca/ influence which is common in Trinidad. She never denied or lied about her heritage. Where are you from? Because I'd like to know if someone has ever mistaken you for a nationality that you aren't? People, especially American's don't know the difference with one black person amongst another, and google can tell you that there are diff. types of Black people from everywhere.
I never said you were "hating" on foxy. I didn't assume that either, I just think you are jumping to conclusions about her without knowing facts and that isn't always a great way to go about doing things. What crime did Foxy commit to deserve a whole year in jail? just wondering.. She hit someone with a blackberry phone? Meanwhile, Lindsay & Paris are out there doing coke and running civilians over and they get a whole 24 hours in jail? I just don't think foxy deserves that much time. She served more than 6 months in RYKERS..one of the most gangsta jails.. And even if foxy was crying, her hearing is a serious issue. Put yourself in her shoes for a moment, you would want the same respect and treatment wouldn't you? And thank you for the support regarding my friend. |

I didn't say entertainers don't lie. She could lie all she wants. Her lying is not changing my life at all, but i know for a fact that foxy is from trinidad, her real name is even of trini descent. It seems like u got a lil hate for fox tho to really go outta ya way to prove she lies or somethin? oh yeah ? who is "the hand" u go right ahead tell me =]
