Inga DeCarlo Fung Marchand, born on 6th September 1978 in Brooklyn, New York City, USA, is of Afro-Trinidadian, Indo-Trinidadian, and Chinese-Trinidadian descent.

Foxy Brown’s Current Net Worth
Foxy’s father, involved in the music industry, left the family to pursue his entertainment career. During her teenage years, Foxy Brown gained attention by performing rap solos at talent contests in Brooklyn. Her professional debut happened when she collaborated with prominent names such as LL Cool J and Lil’ Kim. In 1996, she released her debut album “I II Na Na” which received mixed reviews but enjoyed high sales, with over 109,000 copies sold in the first week. The album featured voices of influential artists including Jay-Z, Method Man, Blackstreet, and Kid Capri. Her second album “Chyna Doll” was released three years later, followed by the third one, “Broken Silence,” in 2001. Both albums were successful and significantly contributed to her net worth, elevating Foxy Brown’s global popularity. Between these albums, Foxy Brown, Nas, AZ, and Nature formed a group called “The Firm” and released an album of the same name in 1997. However, it was their first and last album. She left Def Jam Recordings in 2003, causing the cancellation of “Ill Na Na 2,” but two years later, she resumed working with the record label. Despite numerous hurdles, her album “Brooklyn’s Don Diva” was released in 2007 after signing to Koch Records.
Not only recognized for her rap prowess, but Foxy Brown is also known for her controversial personality and frequent brushes with the law, including multiple arrests. In 2007, she served jail time for violating probation dating back to 2004, following an assault case. Known for her feuds with other stars, she remains a prominent figure in the entertainment industry.
Despite her fame and fortune, Foxy Brown has a history of grappling with psychological issues and hearing loss which led to a hiatus in her singing career. Nevertheless, with four studio albums and a magnetic persona, she continues to be an influential figure in hip-hop. She has managed to forge a successful career despite personal challenges, reaching the pinnacle of the industry.
In her relatively public personal life, Foxy Brown, though never married, has been linked with several celebrities, including rumored engagement to rapper Rick Ross, which he denied.
