The year 2007, the Louisiana hip-hop world is all about the pride, the culture, and the catchy phrases of the boot state. From the label that has stamped the street-certified, Lil' Boosie and Webbie, Trill Entertainment brings a game-spitting newcomer that commands attention when his voice is heard. Foxx-a-Million, also known as "Mr. Wipe Down" has a mellifluous vernacular and drawl when articulating animated stories about the game, getting out on his own and growing up contrary to his label mates in a two-parent household. Foxx's popular lyrics, no matter how edgy or boastful some of these tales might be, broaden the musical landscape of the normal hood anthems executed by Trill Entertainment. After patiently waiting and featuring on Boosie's "True Soldiers", the Trill Fam's "Adios", "U Got Cake" and Alliance's "Tattoo Remix", Foxx is ready to hold his own with his October 2nd release "Street Gossip". Poised as Louisiana's next big name, Foxx is ready to break the mold and plant himself in the longevity of the game. Definitely not a one-hit wonder that recent chart breaking singles have seen, his single "Not Myself" is sure to keep the club hitters movin and have the streets on lock as well.

Foxx's first nation-wide hit was the summer anthem "Wipe Me Down", which raised questions in the industry after being remixed by Lil' Boosie on the "Survival of the Fittest" album, which is in stores now. "Regardless of what people think, that was a major business move on my part. This business is about money and that's what I'm in it for. The Survival of the fittest album is headlined by me Boosie and Webbie, that song got world-wide recognition as the remix. I got plenty more hits under my belt. One song does not make me as an artist," said Foxx. Growing up in a two parent household, Foxx (Jonathan Reed) was considered the black sheep of his family. Finding salvage in the streets caused tension in his household and he soon had to find his own way in life. Of three children, he was the only one who did not graduate from high school. After spending a few years hustling on street corners of Baton Rouge, he had a reality check. With the death of his sister and the birth of his first child he quickly realized the street life would only take him so far. "Hustle didn't make since unless you were moving major work and after my son was born, I knew I had to be in his life every day.

I couldn't risk dying' or getting locked up. I had to be around for my family." Watching the success of other artist in the South, Foxx recognized that his rhyming skills could measure up so he focused his attention on the rap game. After recording and locally distributing a mix tape, his work got in the hands of Trill Entertainment in-house hit-maker Mouse. The newly signed producer recognized Foxx's lyrical savvy and introduced him to label heads Mel and Turk. "I had to just let them know how hungry I was. I was ready to be a part of the movement they were creating and they took a chance on me," said Foxx. Foxx's album will entice the ears of an array of listeners, with tracks that will interest hard-core hip hop heads and boppers alike. His music focuses on a lighter side of life while still staying true to the streets. With tracks featuring Trey Songz, T-Pain, Paul Wall and label mates Webbie, Big Head and Lil' Phat, Street Gossip is sure to be another notch on Trill Entertainment's belt.
