"The streets talkin, got the hood goin crazy/Niggas heard I fucked with Ross and had the nigga baby/They said I fucked with Nas and now they say it's AZ/But on the low the real nigga was Jay-Z"
Really? We would've never called it. Come on, Fox! You see, theblagg fux with Foxy Brown but this track right (peep the video above) here wreaks of heaux behaviour. We know, we know, it's Inga's prerogative to get on a track and - littered in between the usual and expected disses directed at Lil' Kim and any/every other girl who raps - run down the list of her coital conquests. But the run-down is not all that interesting, on the real, all three of the people who didn't know Fox smashed the homie probably aren't ever going to hear this leaked track.
The Ill Nana did take to her twitter last Thursday to defend her verse on Let Em Know, explaining that this joint was never even supposed to reach anyone's ears. She went on to say, "EZ Mo Bee was specifically told to delete this song... so the track should have never been released." Uh-huh.
What does it matter that Mr Knowles was the "real nigga"? For real, what does that do for Foxy? Spragga Benz must be somewhere face deep in a coma-inducing blunt. Chances are Jay-Z will ignore this line like it was a Beanie Sigel cry for help. Or like Kim has been doing for time now. Then what has Foxy proved? Is this merely a matter of a woman scorned...?
Remember, in one of the 08 issues of XXL Inga had this to say: "I would never denounce him [Jay-Z] in public. That’s just how I feel. But I’ve been incarcerated for eight months, and Jay’s been everywhere, and he hasn’t mentioned one thing about, ‘Tell her I love her. Tell her to be strong.’ That broke my heart more than anything. When they sent me to jail, I just knew he would be there - everyone came. But he never showed up…"
Oh look, here he comes now with a bouquet of black roses made of hearing aids. Made you look.
The point is, it's difficult for theblagg to show Foxy love for what seems like sour grapes. It's difficult to throw support behind someone who gets more attention because they "admit" to sleeping with someone the whole world already knew she let hit that. It's difficult to see yet another black woman fall on her sword over a broken heart instead of rising phoenix-like and soaring on her talent. But, to paraphrase Mrs Younger, when someone is down is when you are meant to love them more than ever. So theblagg loves you Foxy. If don't nobody else - least of all Jigga - love you.
