Foxy Brown [Original Soundtrack]

Released

The second film soundtrack from guitarist, producer and singer/songwriter Willie Hutch, Foxy Brown is another classy collection of songs. With only a couple of string-laden, misty-focus romantic tracks, the album is mostly an updated, funked-up version of the Motown sound which swings between loose-limbed funky soul tracks, thick with layered backing vocals and restrained string parts, and more uptempo jams full of Stevie-esque clavs and fatback drumming. Aside from the rich, wide-screen production, Hutch supplies plenty of strong songs, making for a highly durable album.
