Product Description

The sophomore album from hip-hop diva Foxy Brown comes almost two years after she took rap music by storm. Her hardcorerhyme flow and fashionable lyrical content are still present, but where Foxy went the commercial route with her debut, she returns to the streets on CHYNA DOLL. Constantly a target for the media, Foxy explains the hardships that go along with that circumstance on "My Life". She flips the coin, though, on "B.W.A"., collaborating with Gangsta Boo and Mia X for a women's-power anthem. Street-inspired songs abound on CHYNA DOLL, and Brown is visited by her partner-in-rhyme, Jay-Z, as well as other notable hardcore MCs such as DMX.

Amazon.co.uk Review
Joining a cadre of similar-sounding and conceptually cloned efforts, Foxy Brown's Chyna Doll takes its place among a field of equally mundane offerings. While Brown has shown some maturation, especially on cuts like the surprisingly personal "My Life", she's still talking about her "ill na na" ("Tramp") or making pretentious bids for big Willie (Wilma?) status ("4-5-6"). Mostly, though, Chyna Doll just sounds like any number of New York-based rap albums, especially with its commercial formula of shuffling high hats, catchy hooks, and recycled funk loops. In the end, Brown's self-exploitive (sexually and racially) cover art is likely to offer more provocative statements than the album itself. --Oliver Wang

Customer Reviews

Not a bad album .
Not a bad album . If you are familiar with Foxy , then you know what to expect . Not quite as good as " Broken Silence " , but still worth a listen .

Hot Spot!
This album is really great and I soooo disagree with that other review!

This is Foxy's second album and although it may not top her first album - the excellent Ill na na - it's still a really good album.

After the intro the first two tracks ("Chyna white" and "My life") are great, they have Foxy rapping over two strong beats and then the third track is the excellent single "Hot spot" produced by Irv Gotti.
Then you have track 5 "Dog and a Fox" featuring DMX, this really has that DMX sound to it and both Fox and X go at each other on the song.
The next track (along with track 16) is a skit and is quite funny. After this you have two songs which have hooks sung by Mya (on "J.O.B.") and Total (on "I can't") and they are both great songs probably the best two on the album.

Also on the album are some more great collaborations including Jay. Z, Beanie siegel, N.O.R.E and more.
All of the other songs on the album are great but more stand-out tracks would be a cover of Salt-n-pepa's "Tramp" and the ladies anthem "BWA" featuring Mia X and Gangsta Boo.

This is a great album and if you liked her first album then you'll like this and the same goes if you have her third album and not this. But for everyone else I still strongly recommend it as it is a great hip-hop album.

Get "Broken Silence" instead...it's a damn sight better!!!
I bought this album and it is pretty dull. I've listend to it loads hoping it'd be a grower but....it aint. There is a tiresome collabo with Jay-z (bonnie and clyde) the album is almost saved by "Job" featuring Mya and "I can't" but thats scraping the barrel. im sorry to post such a derogarory review because Foxys "Broken Silence" is so tight.
