While still a teenager, Brown won a talent contest in the Park Slope
neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York. Members of the production
team Trackmasters
who were working on LL Cool J's Mr. Smith album were in attendance that
night and were impressed enough to let Brown rap over "I Shot Ya."
She followed this debut with appearances on several RIAA platinum and gold singles from other
artists, including remixes of songs "You're Makin' Me High" by Toni Braxton.[5]
Brown was also featured on the soundtrack to the 1996 film The Nutty Professor,
on the songs "Touch Me Tease Me" by Case
and "Ain't No Nigga" by Jay-Z. The immediate
success led to a label bidding war at the beginning of 1996, and in March, Def Jam
Records won and added the then 17-year old-rapper to their roster.
In 1996, Foxy Brown, Lil' Kim, Da Brat, and Total got together for the
recording of Bad Boy's remix of "No One Else." This was the only
track that Lil' Kim and Foxy Brown appeared on together, the two were friends
at the time.
