For those fans and critics who think Foxy Brown's only "records" involve prison stints - get prepared for a new double album from the hip-hop diva.
Get the deets on Foxy's latest project inside plus hear what Waka Flocka has to say about last week's tour bus shooting and what happens to Remy Ma now that she's lost her appeal.
Foxy Brown reports that she is in the studio recording what will be the first double-album released by a female hip-hop artist called Black Roses.
"I'm in the studio every night, slaving. It's going to be really big. One side is going to be straight Hip Hop and hardcore records, and a couple big radio joints, and then the other side is Dancehall-Rock."
And in an interview with Billboard.com, Foxy says last week's story about her being intoxicated and getting kicked out of a fashion show after-party was pure fiction. Foxy says she isn't even a drinker.
And if you want to know what she thinks about the Nicki Minaj vs. Lil Kim beef, she had this to say:
Nicki has always been cool with me. She and I have something online I did for her -- it was a video shoot with Lil Wayne and Rick Ross, [when] she wasn't signed yet. And she was like, "Foxy is the first female artist who ever embraced me." She was classy; she was articulate. I'm so proud of her.
Of course, people everywhere clearly are saying, "She wants to be Foxy, she wants to be Kim." Everybody's going to say that. But do I think she's doing an incredible job at branding herself? Yes, I do. When you're an icon in the music business…like Mary J. Blige. Keyshia Cole came out after her, [but] you didn't hear Mary J. Blige starting a beef with her just because they compared [Keyshia to] her. Mary J. Blige stayed clean. She does what she does, and I do what I do.
And in other music news...
Waka Flocka is speaking out about the shooting that occurred outside his tour bus on February 16 in Charlotte, North Carolina.
“I wasn’t scared. I felt like that wasn’t my time -- you know what I’m saying. Stuff happens for a reason so God can let you know that’s not the way he wants you to go no more.”
We told you earlier that Waka said he was not involved in the shooting. He added, "I was chilling. I wasn’t a part of that.”
So far, six men have been apprehended by the local police department for what may have been a failed robbery attempt. Waka’s publicist, Kali Bowyer, released a statement saying the rapper and his team were “pleased” with the arrests.
“We are pleased with the attentiveness by the Charlotte Police Department in capturing these individuals in such a timely manner. It is such a shame that one would risk the lives of innocent women and children in hopes of stealing one’s jewelry,” said Kali.
Waka is now working on the Triple F Life: Friends, Fans, and Family project, the follow-up to his debut album Flockaveli, which is expected out later this year. But in stores now, he has a 24-track mixtape titled Salute Me Or Shoot Me 3 to tide over fans.
Also in musical prison news....
Remy Ma will likely remain locked up until 2016 after New York's highest court upheld her eight-year prison term for shooting a friend during a dispute in 2008.
The New York Court of Appeals' 5-2 decision rejected Remy's claim that her lawyer should have been allowed to argue that the shooting was an accident resulting from a struggle for the gun.
Remy has already served three years at the Bedford Hills Correctional Facility for Women. Damn homie.
