    Somewhere in the mix are good hip-hop foundations that are let down by ordinary productions, average flows and middle-of-the-road lyrical content.

    Despite the tabloid-worthy subject matter, a couple of bangers are invigorating, with Foxy spitting fiercely over a dark, stomping beat on 'How We Get Down.' But she also gets stuck in rote braggadocio.
