Incarcerated rapper Foxy Brown has asked a New York judge for an early release from the Rikers Island correctional facility so that she can travel to Hollywood to receive treatment for her hearing problems. According to the New York Daily News, Fox attached a handwritten note to a motion filed by her lawyer requesting that sent Judge Melissa Jackson grant the release in time for a January 30 appointment. “I am terrified of not hearing a fire alarm go off, or being locked in a cell, and someone not being kind enough to let me out, since not everyone understands the severity of my condition,” she explained in the letter. Foxy underwent special surgery in 2006 to treat her sudden and sever hearing loss. Now, the battery on a hearing device she uses has malfunctioned. Her attorney, Laura Dilimetin, noted in her motion that there may be “one or two places” in New York that can fix the cochlear implant, but the Los Angeles based House Clinic is the only place that can properly repair the device. The Daily News reports that the troubled Brooklyn MC insisted in her letter to Judge Jackson that she has a “good heart” and asked the court to consider the good things she has done that don’t get any press. “’Foxy Brown gets into an altercation with a neighbor’ would be great front-page headlines, whereas ‘Foxy Brown brings Christmas toys to 30 disabled children’ would hardly be mentioned,” she reasoned.

Why does she get any press at all? She ain’t had an album in fuckin years? Nas and Jigga don’t write her raps no more. Did anybody hear this bitch on “More or Less” (Shyne), tryin to sound like Shyne. She ain’t nice, never gonna be nice. So what the fuck is her occupation and how does it relate to a “hip-hop” site.
Aaaaaaand, she fuckin busted…RuPaul lookin ass.
Oh yeah and now I’m hatin cause the bitch suck…riiiiiiiiiiiight.

Acting like she can’t hear.

NO SPECIAL TREATMENT !!! says:
Remember when she threw that BLACKBERRY phone @ her neighbor’s face & broke her teeth ??
The neighbor said it was cus “FOXY WAS PLAYING THE MUSIC TOO LOUD IN HER CAR” …… & told her to turn it down, FOXY got out and said “DO U KNOW WHO I AM?” ….
That chick told her she didnt care who she was, just to keep the volume down……
Foxy obviously wanst that concerned about her hearing condition then when she had the music blaring FULL BLAST… So why is she soo worried about it now all of a sudden ??…. Hmmmm… *SMH*
KIM handled her year like an “OG” Bitch with ease & moved on…. But you’ve done nothing but cry & beg for them to let you out w/your snobby, nasty attitude….
U did the CRIME/S, now u gotta do the time……Stop whining & grow up !

Everyone already knows FOXY IS A STUDIO GANGSTER. She even said in a SOURCE interview in 1997 that she never grew up in any ‘hood’ or ‘ghetto’ & that she had a ‘nice upbringing’ w/a ‘nice family’………
Do u guys even know that FOXY’s from the SUBURBS of PARKSLOPE…??? BIG, KIM, & JAY are the ones from BEDSTUY! Foxy pretends that she from BEDSTUY cuz she wants to fit in with them.
Did u guys actually believe all her “hood” gimmicks in her songs bout her reppin the hood & streets…..????? I hope not….
I dont want no suburban lil prissy snobby girl repping my hood …..”STUDIO GANGSTER”
Not to mention she aint had a hit since JAY-Z & NAS were writing for her in 1997………HAS-BEEN, WASHED-UP, Dusty Brown !

KING OF NY says:
That is true. Kim never whined or cried around to get out.
Kim handled hers like a real “OG BROOKLYN Bitch” She’s thorough.
And Kim had a longer sentence too & Foxy aint even near done with hers yet.
I think we’ve all know she was pretending to be hard in all her music, when u can see right thru her, that she a soft, little snotty, schoolgirl, or something.
I’ve just lost all respect for Foxy nowadys w/her childish, selfish, look at me ways… She aint even had a hot song since the 1990’s. Keep her in there, if people with AIDS can do life-sentences, she can do these measly “months”.. SUCK IT UP FOXY

Keep Doggy Brown in her cage says:
LMFAO…. Foxy never went deaf people…. She fooled u if u thinkso.
She lost some of her hearing in her ‘Right Ear’.
She lied about being totally deaf. Her lawyer accidentally exposed her & she fired him the next day… remember that ???
If u read some of the reports that her lawyers put out, they’re way more legit than coming out of Foxy’s mouth, trust me !!! Go read one of the recent ones, her new lawyer will tell u it’s the ‘right ear regressing’…. BIG DIFFERENCE!..More lies Foxy??? Will it ever stop??
People do life sentences in Ryker’s that have AIDS!! SUCK IT UP LIL GIRL, U TALK TOUGH, BUT CANT LIVE IT ….??????
