Advantages: A couple of decent songs showcase the hungry Foxy of old Disadvantages: The "Lil Kim" persona creeps in; far too many guests; boring on many levels
Okay, a quick recap.
FoxyBrown debuted on LL Cool J's "I Shot Ya Remix" WAYY back in 1996 and spit one of the hottest debut verses since Nas' "Live at the Barbeque" four years prior. Soon after, she locked up with Nas, Cormega, and AZ and formed The Firm, a shortlived group which dropped one album before going their own separate ways. After getting signed, she released Ill Na Na which got critical acclaim for being a good album, but also hurt her reputation because Jay-Z ghostwrote most of it. Yeah, that's a problem, but the album was still a nice piece of music... it's just not ALL her. Apparently Foxy wanted to prove the naysayers wrong and prove that she CAN indeed rap well, so she set to work on her second album. Then in 1999, Chyna Doll dropped into the mainstream. Fueled by the incredible sales of the hit single "Hot Spot ...
Advantages: A brilliant read. Disadvantages: Can't put it down.
for Jo, it leaves it to your imagination and doesn't turn into one of these slushy books where everybody lives happily ever after in romance land. I also loved the humour in it, as well as the honest way Jo comes over in her way of thinking as a mum. There are some great characters in it - a selection of different types of people, and you could really relate to some of the characters and friendships that come out of the story. The story makes you want to feel like part of a community, and I don't think that this is necessarily to do with knitting - I think that knitting is just part of the story that comes through in this book. I got my copy of the book from my local library, so you could try your library for a copy, failing that then you could try ebay or Amazon for cheap copies. It's definately worth a read. ...
Divas written by Rebecca Chance was published this year and is a great read.
I have only recently read this book and i borrowed it from my local library and I can see from the inside it has been very popular!
This Book is about a young beautiful woman named Evie Lopez, she started life as pole dancer and grabbed herself a sugar daddy. When she abandoned this career, she bought a swanky penthouse in the luxury Manhattan.
Evie is a mistress to a young girl Lola's father and when her father falls into a coma and her stepmother controls everything. The stepmother 'Carin' eventually evicts Evie and steals her diamonds.
Lola and Evie have to team up even though they are enemies to defeat Carin!
This is a book of laughter and sadness. Rebecca Chance is such a brilliant writer she leaves you in suspense and I just wanted to read ...

Album Notes
After eight months in the belly, the Ill Na-Na returned with plenty of stress to get off her chest. Packed with memorable guest appearances, catchy radio-ready hooks, and hardcore street anthems, BROOKLYN'S DON DIVA sees the female MC return to the same level of mic command that she displayed on her debut. As always, Foxy's approach is aggressive and battle-hungry and her sex appeal and appetite for seduction constitute much of her boast-based lyricism, occupying the space that most testosterone-fueled rappers reserve for drug-sales, gun skills, and money stacks. Production comes courtesy of Street Radio, Jamal Doctor, Stereotype, Young Gavin, Will Fulton, Statik Selektah, and Fizzy Womack of M.O.P. AZ, Dwele, Mavado, Jay Rush, DeMarco, Morgan Heritage, Spragga Benz, Kira, Prinz, Lil Mo, and Grafh are featured.
