NEW FOXY BROWN ALBUM DUE IN DECEMBER: Rapper says she went ‘straight from the operating room to the studio.’
*Now that her hearing is nearly 100 percent again, Foxy Brown says her comeback album should hit the streets sometime in December.
"I went straight from the operating room to the studio,” the Brooklyn rapper tells MTV. “It was really hard. I was deaf for an entire year. Completely deaf. The surgery was iffy. They didn't know if it would be a success, and it was."
Last December, Brown was diagnosed with sudden sensorineural hearing loss. She went under the knife in February to reverse the impairment and now says her hearing is almost fully restored.
"To suddenly lose your hearing after 10 years as a professional artist, I questioned God: 'Why me?'" she said.
Soon, the Ill Na Na will be facing questions from an attorney in her upcoming assault trial. Brown, whose real name is Inga Marchand, is accused of striking two nail salon workers in a fight over payment for a manicure in August 2004.
