Talk:Foxy Brown (rapper)

New proposal: "Personal life" section

I propose separate sections for Brown's music career (albums and such) and her personal life (crime/relationships) to deal with my previous gripes over the "Arrests" section. --Andrewlp1991 (talk) 07:32, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

Agree with proposal, on the basis that the subject's personal life has become as notable as her career. -The Gnome (talk) 03:05, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Regarding that "personal life" section, as it today stands: The description of her recent complainant as "a neighbor, an arch-rival" sounds decidedly not encyclopedic. Perhaps something like "a neighbor who is reportedly a long-time rival."

Also, there's a "read more" link to a newspaper article about the incident right under that section. I don't remember ever seeing something like that on Wikipedia. Shouldn't that be a footnote? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.108.182.170 (talk) 06:03, 5 August 2010 (UTC)

Personal History

Sway: What is your ethnic background? Are you Filipino and black?

Brown: I'm not Filipino and black. Actually, it's so funny, 'cause when Jay-Z and I first met, he swore that I was Filipino and black, and I'm like, "No, I'm not." My family is Trinidadian and Asian.

"With roots in Suriname, SA." is not mentioned in the interview.

BLP noticeboard discussion re: birth year

The Firm

Should her performance w/ The Firm, namely the single/video "Firm Biz" not be added to her discography & videography? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.2.233.193 (talk) 21:19, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

Image

I believe that she deserves an image. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.80.78.253 (talk) 03:16, 24 December 2010 (UTC)

Error

'Violation of order of protection'-=In this sectionit is claimed that certain charges were dropped on July 12, 2001, the same charges having been made July 22, 2011. This should be fixed/clarified.

Black Roses

The Black Roses section is very confusing chronologically. The title of the section includes "2004-2005" but the section begins in 2011 and then progresses backwards and then forwards again. Can this be reorganized? -KaJunl (talk) 20:11, 11 April 2015 (UTC)

Record labels

I am not that familiar with Foxy Brown, but is it true that she is currently on two record labels, as the section in the right says? Also, should the labels be put chronologically instead of alphabetically? -KaJunl (talk) 20:13, 11 April 2015 (UTC)

Order of legal troubles sections

The "other 2007 altercations" section is a little confusing chronologically because it comes before a 2004 incident later int he article. -KaJunl (talk) 20:19, 11 April 2015 (UTC)

New image for article

Don't you think it's about time someone changed that picture of her in jail??? She's not in jail anymore. Time for a more recent one. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.34.160.36 (talk) 05:52, 9 March 2016 (UTC)

Yeah can she have a new image please. Pre-2000 when she was at her peak so more people will recognise her thanks x Foxboogiebrown (talk) 20:26, 1 November 2018 (UTC)

Feuds

I propose the entire "feuds" section be removed, per WP:NOTGOSSIP. It seems rather un-encyclopedic. The input of others would be appreciated. Magnolia677 (talk) 09:52, 28 December 2017 (UTC)

I totally agree. Perhaps keeping only the major ones such as Lil Kim, Remy Ma, Queen Latifah & Nicki Minaj? Maxwell King123321 (talk) 05:38, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
