Foxy Brown Artist Snapshot:

Foxy Brown, the alter ego of Inga Marchand, emerged in the mid-'90s on Brooklyn's rap scene. Already popular at talent shows and local hip-hop concerts, the attractive Foxy soon became a hot commodity as female rappers (Lil' Kim, Missy Elliott) became the music industry's "it" product. Brown developed into a street-smart, party-hopping, Cristal-sipping icon of R&B-based hip-hop, and her 1996 debut ILL NA NA only strengthened the reputation she'd already established with guest appearances, including a memorable one on LL Cool J's "I Shot Ya."

Review

Entertainment Weekly (12/13/96, p.82) - "...Many of the beats are familiar...but Brown's seductive, confident presence almost makes it her own." - Rating: B+
Q (2/97, p.94) - 4 Stars (out of 5) - "...her slinky, streetwise maturity combined with Trackmasters' minimalist production of blaxploitation, '80s soul and gritty atmospherics...makes this...a powerful debut..."
Vibe (2/97, p.104) - "...Foxy Brown's focus delicously shifts....[E]very cut on ILL NA NA bangs to the point where even Foxy Brown's mythical obsessions and predictable mafioso drug-smuggling theme go virtually unnoticed."

Recorded at The Hit Factory, Chung King and Battery Studios, New York, New York.

Between her appearances on Toni Braxton and LL Cool J remixes, and her anthemic duets with Jay-Z, Foxy Brown (who shouldn't be confused with the reggae singer of the same name) made a name for herself even before dropping a record of her own. Her lengthy resume and hit-making potential helped her land a deal with Def Jam Records. She now runs with the influential hip-hop crew The Firm (which includes Nas and AZ), but her debut, ILL NA NA, proves she can easily stand on her own feet.

ILL NA NA finds Brown flowing over both hard-core beats ("The Promise," courtesy of Mobb Deep's Havoc) and smooth R&B tracks ("Get Me Home," featuring the harmonies of Blackstreet). Other songs are meshes of the two genres, an approach that has enabled many rappers to cross over. Labelmate Method Man contributes the chorus to the title track.
