Foxy Brown, new label, new fracas

Foxy Brown has signed to Koch Records to run her own label, Black Rose Entertainment, and has been charged with assault after an alleged neighbour dispute.

So, what do you want first, the Foxy Brown moves label news, or the Foxy Brown in yet another fracas news? Let's leave the best till last, shall we?

Foxy Brown has signed to Koch Records bringing to an end her career long relationship with Universal's Def Jam. Brown will run her own record label, Black Rose Entertainment, through Koch. The hip hop star's manager, Chaz Williams, told reporters: "She's moved onto monetarily greener pastures by signing her record label, Black Rose Entertainment to Koch. She is the first artist and she wants to connect with her dancehall reggae roots. Foxy's looking to sign up-and-coming Caribbean and U.S. artists. But she's definitely the first and biggest artist on her label".

Elsewhere in Foxy news, the rapper has been charged with assault after allegedly hitting here neighbour with a mobile phone. Her people are denying the charges but, of course, if she is found guilty she may well be facing jail, because she's already on probation in relation to that fracas in a beauty salon in 2004. Still, that could be good news for Koch. Just ask Lil Kim, a prison term can do wonders to flagging record sales.
