Foxy Brown: The original bad girl of rap, Foxy Brown's promising career has been constantly hampered by her tendencies to get arrested.
Her first solo album after underground hype, Ill Na Na went platinum (coz I know how much you guys value record sales) leading to her joining forces with the likes of my boy Nas & AZ as the group known as 'The Firm'
In 2001 she went through a slight altercation as she choose to become more 'street' and represent Brooklyn, following a change in hip-hop trends at the time.
Jean Grae: Born in South Africa to jazz musicians, Jean Grae was a prominent figure on the much touted NY underground hip-hop scene.
Starting from 2002, Grae realised a tirade of material including 7 studio albums and has collaborated with numerous big names in hip-hop from The Roots to Mos Def.
Oh yeah, and you can buy her 'creative services' for $800 per 16 bars on Craigslist.
Here's a video from each artist.
