Recap: Foxy Brown at B.B. King’s Bar and Grill

Foxy Brown featuring AZ & Cormega at B.B. King's Blues Club & Grill 7/25/10

Last night, Foxy Brown performed live at the famous B.B. King’s Blues Club & Grill in New York City’s Times Square. Though the show comes on the heels of a recent arrest following an altercation with a neighbor, the Brooklyn MC was determined not to let any legal issues stand in the way of putting on a fun, energetic show.

A show which, of course, did not start on time, so DJ Obsession held the crowd down with a selection of classic hip-hop, R&B, and dancehall songs, whipping the crowd into a frenzy before the performances finally began.

Once Foxy bounced on stage, she ran through a litany of hits and fan favorites, including “Stylin’,” “Ain’t No,” and “No One Else.” Between songs, Fox Boogie took time out thank her fans, offer tenets of girl power, and rail against her detractors and enemies.

Halfway through the set, Foxy introduced a live band, who backed her for the remainder of the show, powering through hits like “Na Na Be Like” and “Oh Yeah” with special guest Spragga Benz.

Spragga wasn’t the only guest to appear onstage. Earlier in the set, DoItAll of Lords of the Underground performed his classics “Funky Child” and “Chief Rocka” as well his recent Pete Rock-produced “Surrender.” Afterward, the rapid fire lyricist implored the NYPD to “leave Foxy Brown the **** alone,” an exaltation which was met with a great deal of applause from the crowd.

And after Foxy declared that The Firm was back together, AZ and Cormega came out for a raucous version of their posse cut “Affirmative Action.” Feeling the energy, AZ then ripped through his memorable verses from “Phone Tap” and “Life’s A Bitch.” Curiously, with all of the talk about the return of The Firm, there was no mention of Nas.

Though the show hit a few snags here and there—most notably, the performance of “BK Anthem,” where Foxy and her hype man got stuck on the line, “The home of Biggie and Jay”—it was an overall success. From the moment she was on stage until the announcement that her oft-delayed album Black Roses is indeed coming out by the end of the year, Foxy Brown had the rapt attention and unyielding love of her fans.
