Welcome Home, Foxy!




She's Back!


Family and fans greeted rapper Foxy Brown on Friday outside Rikers Island as she was released from the jail after serving an eight-month sentence.

"The first place I want to go is church. I've got to get on my knees," said Brown.

Instead, Brown went shopping in Harlem, had some soul food and was driven to her childhood home in Brooklyn in a white Rolls Royce Phantom...





Her mother, Judith Marchand, presented her with smiley-face balloons and the two hugged outside the family's home in the Prospect Heights neighborhood...




... and a VH1 crew captured the reunion for an upcoming reality show -




"I did almost a year in prison, a year in prison, just because my name is Foxy Brown," she said.

Brown, whose real name is Ingrid Marchand, was sentenced in September 2007 to a year in jail for violating the terms of her probation after she was accused of hitting a woman with a cell phone. She was on probation for an August 2004 attack on two manicurists at a Manhattan nail salon. She pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault in the 2004 incident.

With a new album and a new reality show due out this year, let's hope Fox Boogie can stay focused. There's such of lack of good talent in the rap game right now, especially on the female side. The game needs you, Fox!
