Jennifer Esmerelda Hylton, known professionally as Foxy Brown, is a Jamaican reggae singer. Her first introduction to the reggae charts was via the Steely & Clevie-produced versions of Tracy Chapman's "(Sorry) Baby, Can I Hold You Tonight" and "Fast Car," the former even entering Billboard's Black Singles Chart. These led to her being regarded as Jamaica's Tracy Chapman. She released her debut album Foxy, in 1989, which showcased her original songwriting. In 1990 she had a hit with the dancehall single "Always For Me", and a second album, My Kind of Girl, followed in the same year. She also had a hit with Johnny P called "If you Love Me".

Sie erzielte Ende der 1980er einige Erfolge auf Jamaika und in Tanzhallen außerhalb mit Coverversionen der Tracy-Chapman-Hits „Baby Can I Hold You Tonight“ (=„Sorry“) auf dem „Unmetered Taxi“-Riddim und „Fast Car“, jeweils produziert vom jamaikanischen Produzentenduo Steely & Clevie. Vom Publikum wurde sie so schnell auf die Rolle als jamaikanische Tracy Chapman festgelegt, was einer Karriere als eigenständige Sängerin und Songschreiberin zunächst hinderlich erschien.

Lloyd „Pickout“ Dennis und Philip „Fatis“ Burrell, woraus die Hits „Always For Me“ und „Whip Appeal“ sowie Kollaborationen mit dem seinerzeit populären Dancehall-DJ Johnny P („Cherish The Love“, „If You Love Me“) resultierten. Insgesamt gesehen besteht ein Großteil ihres Repertoires aus Coverversionen zu denen auch Rocksteady-Standards wie „Love Is All I Had“ gehören.
