In 1999, Foxy Brown made history as the first female rapper to have a number 1 album with Chyna Doll selling over 173,000 copies in the first week.
In 2005, while in the midst of recording her studio album Black Roses, Brown faced another hardship when she was diagnosed with sensorineural hearing loss. The hearing impairment took 100% of Brown's hearing, but 20% was restored after an operation to repair it. After her fifth surgery Foxy regained 99.9% of her hearing.
Following a relatively quiet career period which coincided with an eight month jail sentence in 2008, Foxy continued to record the long in-progress Black Roses with a projected release date of late 2010. Ultimately, Black Roses was never released.
In 2018, after years of hiatus, Brown was a featured artist on Nicki Minaj's fourth studio album Queen on the track "Coco Chanel".

I DON'T CARE
[Chyna White]
Yo, consider me a roll model if there's beef in the club
I'm that lil' white bitch that's gonna throw bottles
Me and the fam has this whole model
Fuck you, fuck them, fuck all uh y'all
So what if there's a hundred labels that got the bid?
So what if I dreamed the devil never dared me to sin?
So what if the industry compares me to him?
So what if I write hard?
Or is it really just a big fuckin' deal 'cause' it's comin' from a white broad
So what, hear me so what?!
If I bring it most of these rappers gon' fold up
I don't care if I might be on top, I can give a flyin' fuck
If you like me or not
So what if you think I'm not the illest chick?
I don't care you still gotta feel dis bitch
I don't care
[Chorus]
To all the hatas that be lookin' to fade us
We not concerned wit what chu put in the papers
I DON'T CARE
We stayin' focus while you try to provoke us
We never cared that industry notice
I DON'T CARE
[Foxy Brown]
Don't give a FLUCK (fuck) niggas know I'm BUCK
Niggas know I'm reppin' they don't fuck wit' me
Bitches know I'm 7 go head get slick
Tick this bitch off get cho highway to heaven nigga
Slick shit hot shit I'm so gutter
If I die tomorrow I reserect through my young brotha
Oh Gawd got to warn yah first shawty spit hard
And she rollin' with the Brown broad

It's a rap I'm so back it's a double high mode nigga
Please believe it's the BK pretty broad
Code D is a white sex in the city broad
Out in that field we get it crunk we cruise pop
Wit two 20 glocks holla yah heard Fox
[Chorus] (x2)
The lyrics of Foxy Brown's "I Don't Care" explore the idea of self-confidence and being unfazed by critics, haters, or anything that may come along the way as success is being achieved. Her rapping is a display of arrogance, and she flows with the audience. Foxy's single helped her establish herself as one of the rapper's most significant female voices. She starts the song by describing herself as a role model who doesn't mind throwing a bottle at someone that provokes her in the club. Chyna White's verse expresses her unapologetic behavior. The hook emphasizes that their gang does not care what people say, and they will not be provoked. The use of the 'I don't care' phrase throughout the song shows they don't take feeble-minded comments to heart.
Foxy Brown's verse is a reminder of her flow and hard raps. She repeats that she is buck and hot, and that everyone damn knows it. She mentions that she does not care what you say or do as she's never forgetting the ghetto. She emphasizes that she connects with the younger generation of rappers, that Foxy's style is still relevant, and her brother still inspires her. The synergy creates a force to be reckoned with. The rapper doesn't care if you like her - she's just going to keep going whether you like it or not.

@murdahmammiez
Kori?? Thats chyna white. She changed her name??
@reinaldoalvarado4884
Yeah she changed her name because the other girl from the Bia Bia song was also called China White and people were confusing them and the one from the Bia Bia song took it to court.
@robw5741
@Reinaldo Alvarado u pretending to know..... it's clearly not chyna Whyte, and she clearly says she's white.....
@reinaldoalvarado4884
@rob w and the ppl still thought it was the other Chyna White. Why you coming at me when Chyna White from the Bia Bia song had a piece in XXL talking about it. She was mad a lot of record execs hit her up to sign her but she let them know that’s not her on Foxys song and that she took it to court because she had the name first. Foxy also stated in BET with Big Tigger that Kori is China White but because of a legal situation she now goes by Kori. Whatever man..
@robw5741
@Reinaldo Alvarado she now goes by Kori? Bitch this was nearly 20 years ago, and never heard from the bitch again.... foh
@nakiosan3364
@rob w now apologize, b*.
