Well it Looks like Page Six is spreading their False news again, as confirmed by Foxy and Louis Vuitton those reports were originally false. These are false too.

11.08.04-Foxy Brown Planning Comeback With Help From Jay-Z
If you saw Jay-Z's "Fade to Black" over the weekend, or were lucky enough to cop tickets to his "farewell" concert at Madison Square Garden last November, then you saw the show that not only spurred a reunion for him and R. Kelly, but the historic show that instigated Hov and Foxy Brown to start rolling like Bonnie and Clyde again.
"I think that sparked the whole, 'Oh my God, they love us,' " Foxy said during a recent mixtape shopping spree in New York. " 'Cause we didn't [do anything together] for a couple of years, it was so unexpected. He kept saying, 'I got Kells coming out, I got Beyoncé,' they never expected Foxy. I tell you, I never saw 30,000 mutha----as roar like that in my life."
If you ask Foxy, she'll tell you she's signed to Jay's S. Carter Records and that together, she and the Jiggaman will be unstoppable in 2005. (Jay says nothing is solidified on the business end.) "It's '96 again," she boasted, referring to the year she and Jay dropped their first albums.
"This is a rebuilding process for me," she continued. "The streets are begging for me to come back. They gotta listen to these bullsh-- female artists right now. They just gotta settle right now, and I don't think hip-hop should have to settle. They had a great teacher, but mommy's home right now. When I come back, it's a problem. I'm so back. I'm knocking out five joints a night — I'm a complete beast right now."
Foxy said ever since she left Def Jam last year in the wake of what she called mishandling of her never released Ill Nana 2: The Fever (see "Foxy Brown Claims She's Misunderstood, Collaborates With Lauryn Hill On New LP"), she's been wooed by everyone from 50 Cent to Shyne to Jay-Z.
"I sat down with every [label] president. They are like, 'Boogie, what do you need? You know how to make a hit record.' That's the bottom line. We been doing that since '95. It's a formula. You know me, I thrive off of controversy. I thrive off n---as talking. I get a kick out of that. Whatever I make has to be so serious, it has to be ridiculous. I gotta shake New York up."
And to do so, Foxy has a new album mapped out. She plans on calling it Black Roses and has guest appearances lined up from Luther Vandross, Dido, Jay-Z, Mos Def and Shyne (see "Foxy Brown Stays Tight With Shyne, Wants Jay-Z For Hip-Hop-Reviving Trio").
"My best friend Barrington Levy has a song called 'Black Roses,' " she explained. "He's been traveling all over the world and never seen a black rose in no other garden. When he found his black rose, he knew that sh-- was special. Y'all n---as can have all the female rappers in the world, but there's only one black rose. I feel that's me.
"I make my best records in pain," she added. "When I'm happy, you're getting the party joints. When I'm bleeding, you're getting the 'Open Book,' the 'Broken Silence.' You're getting the real grimy dark records. The Black Roses album, when I tell you it's a monster, Black Roses is a problem. Luther sings 'The Letter' over. Me and Dido are crying like, 'Give me one more chance, one more kiss.' I got Barrington Levy, Hov, Mos Def. I'm bleeding on this album. I do the reggae sh-- on this album. I'm bleeding, it's crazy."
There is still no release date for Foxy's project.

Foxy Brown: '2005 Is Gonna Be A Great Year'
By Jigsaw and Nolan Strong
Date: 10/15/2004 5:18 pm
Foxy Brown's signing to S. Carter Records was welcoming news to the Hip-Hop community and while its official, the female rap mistress has been selfish with details.
“I can't comment on the deal with S. Carter. What I can tell you is between The Fugees, Foxy Brown and Jay-Z, 2005 is about to be the great year in Hip-Hop,” she told AllHipHop.com.
Prior to an abrupt departure from Def Jam, she completed Ill Na Na 2: The Fever, an album critically regarded as her finest work, even though it was bootlegged and leaked on the internet. Brown recorded the shelved album for Def Jam, before becoming embroiled in a feud with Lyor Cohen, who was chairman of the label at the time.
“There's no more Fever album,” Brown told AllHipHop.com. “That's on Def Jam and I left them a year ago. I'm in a new situation.”
The new situation she is referring to is her signing to S. Carter Records, the latest venture by Jay-Z.
Sources stated that Brown received a $500,000 advance, but she refused to comment on the details of the deal. Jay-Z, whose real name is Sean Carter, heads up Roc-A-Fella Records with Dame Dash and Kareem “Biggs” Burke.
Rumors of a strained relationship between Jay-Z and Dame Dash have been reported for over a year, even though both deny a rift between each other.
Jay-Z has increased his holdings outside of Roc-A-Fella over the last few years. His businesses include his S.Carter sneaker collection with Reebok, the S. Carter Records label, the 40/40 club and a minority stake in the New Jersey Nets.
Sources also stated that Jay-Z is looking to move into the world of boxing, expressing interest in upcoming Olympic boxer Devin Vargas, as part of a possible deal with cable premium channel HBO.
Reports have been circulating that the Roc-A-Fella label is close to being sold to Def Jam, in a deal that is estimated to be valued between $10 and $20 million, reports say. Other numbers have soared to $40 million or more.
When recently asked by Newsday about Jay-Z's status with Roc-A-Fella, Dame Dash remained elusive.
"Those are just rumors," Dash said. "But if Jay-Z leaves, he leaves."
Updated 10.12.04 - Foxy's label status burning the papers!
Foxy has been doing her media rounds. Attending Birthday bashes, Award Shows, she is going to Appear on Jay-Z's DVD, Documentary Fade to Black and also his and R. Kelly's Best of ... Pt. II.
Page Six Reports.
In other diva-stating news, Foxy Brown is living large again.
Jay-Z's S. Carter record company recently gave the comebacking rap minx a $500,000 advance for her upcoming album, and Foxy asked that half of it be in cash.
Our tipsters report that Foxy stuffed the quarter-million in a brown paper bag, promptly drove to a Long Island Bentley dealership and bought a silver Bentley GT.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^Take that, Lil' Kim!

Foxy Brown attended VH1's Hip Hop Honors Show at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City on Sunday, October 3. She and Wyclef Jean presented an award together during the ceremony, which will Air on VH1 Tuesday, October 12 at 9:00PM EST .
Visit VH1.com for additional air dates.
Earlier that afternoon, Brown had attended Al Sharpton's 50th Birthday celebration at the Apollo Theatre, paying tribute to the preacher and political leader alongside P. Diddy, James Brown, and others.
"He says what he feels, he means what he says, and he acts on it. He has marched, has been jailed, and many times maligned in his fight for recognition of the downtrodden," Foxy said of Sharpton.
Citing civil rights activists Martin Luther King Jr. and A. Philip Randolph, Foxy went on to call Sharpton "our present-day link to our great leaders who have gone on to glory." Following the event at the Apollo, Foxy also attended an after party held at Milieu.
In other news, Foxy's fur collection has gained mention in several prominent publications, including the November issue of W magazine, October 11 issue of Newsweek, October 4 issue of People, and various daily newspapers. The fur line, which includes the Marchand and Foxy Brown brands, should be arriving in stores soon.

Foxy Brown Signs With S.Carter Records
By Nolan Strong and Raze
Date: 10/2/2004
According to sources, rapper Foxy Brown has signed a deal with Jay-Z's new label, S. Carter Records.
A source revealed that the deal has not been officially announced, because Carter has not settled on a distribution deal for his new imprint.
“Lyor [Cohen] was with Jay-Z in Chicago on tour and LA Reid was with him soon after,” a source speaking under the condition of anonymity told AllHipHop.com. “He is getting offers from everybody but since the Roc-A-Fella deal is not really done nothing can be made official.”
The signing would reunite the Brooklyn pair, both of whom at one point were both under contract to Def Jam.
In previous reports, LA Reid made it known that he was seeking to buy the Roc-A-Fella imprint from partners Dame Dash, Kareem “Biggs” Burke and Jay-Z.
Sources stated that deal hit a snag because the Roc-A-Fella partners felt the amount Reid was offering, which is stated to be around $20 million dollars, is too low for the label.
In early 2003, Brown had a nasty public falling out with former Def Jam chairman Lyor Cohen. The two clashed shortly after Brown re-signed with Def Jam Records in a joint venture with Sean “P. Diddy's” Combs' Bad Boy Entertainment.
She also negotiated an Ill Na Na Entertainment label deal with the Universal Music Group.
Her highly anticipated album Ill Na Na 2: The Fever was shelved and eventually Foxy was released from her contract with Def Jam.
Cohen later departed from his Island Def Jam position and now heads up the North American operations of Warner Music Group, taking top executives Kevin Liles and Julie Greenwald with him and LA Reid took over Island Def Jam.
Brown has kept busy, launching a line of custom furs and accessories and is currently developing a reality series for MTV. Album details were not available as of press-time.

8.22.04 RAPPING UP $$ --
Foxy Brown hasn't released a record in three years and her label, Def Jam, dropped her about a year ago. But it doesn't mean she's not still in business.
Next month, Alexis & Gianni furrier begins distributing the Foxy Brown Luxury Furs collection to stores across the country.
"She's young and sexy. People of all ethnicities and economic groups will want to wear her furs," said Bijan Khozooie, Alexis & Gianni's chief operating officer.
Increasingly, a record deal isn't the only contract a rapper signs.
Promoting and creating new products has become standard operating procedure for artists whose shelf life is slightly longer than warm brie.
"They are incredible business thinkers. Working the American machine is what they are doing. I think part of their art is controlling their checkbooks," said Bryan Mattox, an advertising executive at Burrell Communications. "They are artists of the deal."
In some cases, rappers are promoting products before they even have released an album.
The Game, a member of 50 Cent's G-Unit rap group, is set to drop his first CD in October, yet he could be found posing in Reebok advertisements.
"Just the fact that he is doing business with 50 Cent and 50 is such a good partner for us means that we will probably do business with him," said Que Gaskins, the head of Reebok's Rbk division, the home of shoes by 50 Cent, Jay-Z and Pharrell Williams.
Both Burrell and Reebok's market research found that rappers are the most efficient vehicles to reach a wide swath of consumers — black, white, affluent and working class — who are willing to pay to echo the lifestyles of their favorite MCs.
Reebok enjoyed a 350 percent increase in sales of Rbk shoes between 2003 and 2004.
When she signed her first record contract at 15, Foxy Brown made an effort to turn herself into a brand.
Sitting in the front row of fashion shows, being a fixture at all the right parties, maintaining a sexy appearance and playing out rivalries in public kept Foxy from fading away from the public's memory when she didn't have a record to support.
Her fans will buy furs, handbags and DeCarlo jeans from Foxy Brown, the label, in the same way that shoppers will rush to buy a new scent of their favorite brands of fabric softener.
"I wanted to create a global brand that superseded any record that I could ever make. I don't want my relevancy to just be tied to a record. I want to always be able to go to premieres and be photographed on the red carpet and be on Page Six, to still be necessary and relevant," Foxy said.
"This is progress. All of the ambitious rappers who surround themselves with smart people will have a diverse portfolio of products," said James Cruz, vice president of marketing and promotions for Violator Management.
P. Diddy is the consummate promoter who has launched the careers of many artists. Now he has a designer fashion label and is opening stores to further his brand.
"There are no 50-year-old rappers, so the smart artists are looking out for their futures."
The influence of rap can be seen outside fashion. Lil Jon along with his partners the East Side Boyz have been making noise since the 1996 but didn't get mainstream attention until he was featured on Usher's ubiquitous "Yeah" last year.
Now that his name has Power, Lil Jon is racking up product endorsements.
A good-time aura led Oakley to enlist Lil Jon to create red camouflage Zero sunglasses, among other products. Lil Jon's frenetic posture made him a natural front man for an energy drink called Crunk!!!, the name of a rap style that, like him, has its roots in the South.

An accompanying article highlights Foxy's soon-to-be-launched fur line, as well as other upcoming personal and professional projects. Stay tuned for further information from the WWD article. Also on August 3, Foxy spoke with MTV news about her friendship with imprisoned Def Jam artist Shyne. "We've known each other since I was 13," she told MTV, continuing, "We have a real special bond. I witnessed the transformation of him before he was Shyne, just running around wilding in Flatbush [in Brooklyn] to getting signed. Then I went through the phase of seeing him being the hottest rapper with the biggest buzz in the industry." Brown appears on "More or Less" and "The Gang," two tracks from Shyne's upcoming LP, Godfather Buried Alive, due in stores August 10. Also discussed in the MTV interview was the proposed formation of a hip-hop supergroup consisting of Foxy, Shyne, and Jay-Z. "It was definitely discussed, but right now, this is the rebuilding process for me," Foxy explained. "The streets are begging for me to come back. They gotta listen to these bullshit female rappers out there. They just gotta settle right now. Hip-hop shouldn't have to settle. Everybody's like 'Boogie, come on.' When I come back, it's a problem. When Shyne comes back, it's a problem. They already know Jay's a problem. [Forming a trio] was Shyne's idea, actually. He was like, 'You know how crazy it would be?' I was like, 'If it's right, I'm with it.' Shyne's with it and if Jay's with it, it'll materialize into something incredible." Visit MTV.com for the full article.

Also mentioned during the October 8 interview was Foxy's intent to sign with one of the six unnamed labels that have reportedly approached her with recording contracts. This news does not bode well for Foxy's shelved LP, Ill Na Na 2: The Fever, which may never be released. On the other hand, Def Jam might rush it to market in a last ditch effort to recoup investment in the album.

Hip-hop artist Foxy Brown turned up in Manhattan Criminal Court yesterday to face assault charges for allegedly punching and kicking two workers at a Chelsea nail salon who blocked the door after they claim she refused to pay for a pedicure last summer.
Foxy Brown will fight a charge of assaulting workers at a Chelsea manicure shop last summer because she didn't beat anyone, her attorney said yesterday.
Rapper Foxy Brown surrendered to police last night on a charge of assaulting a manicurist at a Manhattan salon last year after the worker charged her $20 for a pedicure she never got.
Due to a lack of news I decided to do some minor updates throughout the site. As you know we added the scans from Rides-Magazine last week. Along with the Rides Pictures I added some candid pictures from Spring Fashion Week in Manhattan, where Foxy attended the Zac Posen and Sweet Face (By: Jennifer Lopez and Andy Hilfiger) shows.
Rapper Foxy Brown doesn't need a publicist to spin her critics. She does it pretty well all by herself. The 25-year-old Brown, aka Inga Marchand, was so irked about Lowdown's report on Monday - suggesting that Sean Combs stood her up after the Zac Posen show in Bryant Park the other night - that she personally got on the phone to deny any alleged Diddy dis.
We have good news on this Valentine’s Day 2005. Foxy Brown is working on a new album and its looking like it’s the same temperature as blue fire. Black Roses, the working title, is supposed to feature Jay-Z, Dido (remember “Stan”), Mos Def, Barrington Levy, Big Daddy Kane, Rakim, KRS One and her lyrical predecessor Roxanne Shante. We can’t imagine an album this dope from a commercial rapper, but that’s the word. Word is, her and Bleek are sparring with who should come out first, but it appears that Bleek is going to win this won. We’ll gladly wait.
At the Zac Posen fashion show in Bryant Park the other night, Lowdown hears, His Diddyness passed word to the 25-year-old Brown, whose real name is Inga Marchand, to meet him in the W Hotel's VIP lounge after the show.
Foxy Brown has graced the cover to the New March Issue of RIDES Magazine.

Foxy Brown, recently brought back into the Def Jam fold, has just contributed vocals to a remix of the song. Guests on Pleasure include Atlanta rapper T.I., on "If I Hit," and Memphis rappers. According to Young Gavin Foxy's brother, the Remix is Bananas, I sure do hope so. I'm glad to see DefJam finally including Foxy in the mold, good work Jay.
Whoa, Last night Foxy got into some serious issues with her situation, her album, her beefs, who she respects, how she feels about the game and so much more. Foxy got her Swagger back and she don't know how to Act!
Yo Fox is killing these Two joints from Dj Clues: the Incredible Dj Clue. The First joint I think is what was suppose to be the “Locked Up” Remix, Akon is on the hook and Fox is just killing it. She got the illest sound on this song, the Flow is insane.
Last Night Foxy was up at Flex's show with Jay-Z the President/ CEO of Island DefJam Records, ower of the Roca-Fella company. That's right yall Jay will still be the CEO of RocaFella even after his time as the CEO of DefJam expires. Dame is also out of the loop this time. Before Foxy even arrived Jay spoke on how her or Bleek would be the first to drop albums underneath the leadership of Jay-Z, I see some good things about to happen. Like they say good things come to those who wait. And we've waited 3 years!
As reported with the Last Update Foxy Brown attended the New York Knick's game with Don Pooh. Later that night i guess she felt like living it up a lil more so she decided to chill with Jamal Crawford of the New York Knicks at the Club. See looks very good and extremely comfortable with him.

Foxy Brown is once again mistreating retail minions. We hear she cursed out a salesman at David Z's in SoHo last weekend, after he was slow to let her in the store after hours. Last September we reported how the hip hop horror-show terrorized staffers at the Louis Vuitton flagship, allegedly beat a nail salon girl with her cellphone and called a Barney's staffer a "stupid baby" because she couldn't find the size Brown was looking for.(Sunday 12/12/04)
