Let me first say that I’m a fan of both Foxy and Kim. I think it’s safe to say they are both dope MC’s. One thing I enjoyed about both of these rappers was how good their voices were. Like the late GURU from Gang Starr stated “It’s mostly the voice”. Kim and Foxy sound magical over nice beats. During the mid 90’s Kim and Foxy rapped along side of Biggie, Jay-Z, NAS, Mobb Deep and several R&B acts. My question is as an OVERALL MC, who is the better artist to you? Who has the best flow, lyrics and style? Who has the better albums, singles and guest appearances?
MY VERDICT – This is tough as Foxy has a very dope style. That being said, Lil Kim edges Foxy Brown as an overall artist. Lil Kim’s debut album Hard Core is better than every Foxy Brown album. As for guest appearances, Lil Kim has Quiet Storm with Mobb Deep, Foxy doesn’t.
