Brooklyn's Don Diva is the first mixtape by American rapper Foxy Brown.[10] Released in the US on May 13, 2008,[11] it was intended to be the follow-up to 2001's Broken Silence. According to Rolling Stone magazine, the album would be released prior to Black Roses, the album that she has been working on since 2004 and was recorded in Chung King Studios in New York City. The album was released in the UK on June 2, 2008, and in Japan on July 16, 2008. Several tracks ("When the Lights Go Out", "We Don't Surrender", "Star Cry") have been released to iTunes, as intended singles to promote the album. Three of the albums tracks were produced by Polish beatmaker Matheo.[12]

The album's release had been delayed multiple times, primarily due to Foxy Brown's jail sentence.[13] It sold only about 30,000 copies in the US.[14]
