Foxy Brown Blasts VH1's 'Hip Hop Honors'
Foxy Brown isn’t too pleased with VH1’s “Hip Hop Honors.” Following Monday’s show, the Brooklyn rapper took to Instagram to discuss her displeasure with the network for not including her in this year’s “All Hail the Queens” festivities.
“I Awoke This Morning, Oblivious And Shocked At Our Fans Across The World’s TRENDING Outrage At (Reality Show Network) @VH1’s Non-Inclusion Of LAURYN HILL & FOXY BROWN,” she wrote. “Anyone Recognized, (Whether The Contribution Big Or Small) I Applaud. Personally, I’d Prefer Being Held To A Much Higher Standard In My Walk, But Fans Went Ballistic; The PEOPLE Have Spoken!”

However, Foxy says she’s not bothered by the omission because she aspires for more. “We’ve Been Blessed To Set The Bar At It’s Highest Heights,” she added. “Most Notably Receiving The 2016 Historic ‘KEY’ To My CITY of BROOKLYN…..Therefore, Humbly Speaking The CALIBER Of HONOR I’d Aspire To Are Those ‘UPPER ECHELON’. After All Guys This Is VH1!”
Despite the controversy, the Ill Na Na is moving forward with new music. “I’m In The Studio Perfecting This Incredible Return,” she told her fans.
While Foxy was left out, “Hip Hop Honors” returned from its six-year hiatus to honor several women in hip-hop, including Queen Latifah, Lil’ Kim, Salt-N-Pepa, and Missy Elliott.
