We’ve returned with another Hip Hop anniversary, this time courtesy of Foxy Brown. Over the weekend, we marked 21 years since Foxy released her third studio album Broken Silence, an album that critics claimed shows Brown drifting more into a Pop lane than her previous releases. The Ill Na Na rapper had already made major moves with singles like “Get Me Home,” “I’ll Be,” and How to Be a Player’s “Big Bad Mamma,” but by 2001, Foxy switched things up ever so slightly.
To help celebrate the Rap icon’s catalogue for her anniversary, we’re revisiting a Broken Silence favorite, “Candy” featuring Kelis. From the moment you press play, it’s obvious who was behind the production: The Neptunes. Chad Hugo and Pharrell Williams often collaborated with Kelis, so finding her involved in this track doesn’t come as much of a surprise.
“Candy” would go on to peak at #10 on Billboard’s Hot Rap Songs chart and #24 on their Top 100, and while it may not have reached that #1 spot, fans who continue to stream the classic all these years later don’t seem to mind one bit.
Foxy Brown – Candy (ft. Kelis) (prod. The Neptunes)
[Intro: Kelis]
I taste just like candy
Candy
I taste just like candy
So dance with me
[Verse 1: Foxy]
Yo, now let me paint y’all a picture
Fox pimp hard, just quiet like a whisper – don’t get it mixed up
Bad little sista; not bad meaning bad but
Bad meaning good – Damn, I’m so hood
You should see me in them jeans
It’s hard to describe and
Being cocky is just a part of the vibe
I might stop and holla and pop my collar
Maybe a little conceited but that’s always needed
Love attention when I’m passin’ by
See I show a little cleavage then I catch his eye
Just the thought of him eatin’, I was outside soakin’
Duke standin’ loc’in, mouth wide open
I walked over, lickin’ my lips
And adjustin’ my {tits} and switchin’ my hips
He threw his hand on my waist
Looked in my face and said he wanna know how I taste
[Chorus: Kelis]
I taste just like candy, so dance with me
I taste just like candy, so dance with me
I taste just like candy, so dance with me
I taste just like candy, so dance with me
[Verse 2: Foxy]
Now just imagine me nude, stretched out
I’ll be all over the news if this gets out
So hot that the press might ban me
Now how bad you wanna know if I’m sweeter then candy?
What would you risk? Would you put up the car?
Taste my na na in the rain on the hood of your car
Or the back of the plane, {nipples} all out
Bent over the sink with my panties in your mouth
When my dark skin complexion steps in
Won’t take no questions to get him and the
Thought of Fox give him an erection
To get real stiff at the sight of my {tits}
Now we can role play, you be the pilot
I’ll be the stewardess boy I ain’t new to this
When I lay on my stomach and throw my legs back
Y’all probably won’t know how to act
[Chorus: Kelis]
I taste just like candy, so dance with me
I taste just like candy, so dance with me
I taste just like candy, so dance with me
I taste just like candy, so dance with me
I taste just like candy, so dance with me
I taste just like candy, so dance with me
I taste just like candy, so dance with me
I taste just like candy, so dance with me
[Verse 3: Foxy]
I’m real sweet like a candy corn
I’m in your thoughts late night when your boys are gone
Picture me, t-shirt, no panties on
Or maybe topless, homie I’m priceless bwoy
The kind of girl that love to talk {shit}
‘Specially when I’m on top – the whole show stop
Even though I’m sweet, ain’t nuttin sweet
Let me know when you’re ready to eat
[Chorus: Kelis]
I taste just like candy, so dance with me
I taste just like candy, so dance with me
I taste just like candy, so dance with me
I taste just like candy, so dance with me
I taste just like…
