Jamie Foxx has done it all. From a successful acting and musical career that has landed him Grammy, Academy, and Golden Globe Awards – to now becoming one of the latest Black spirit brand owners.
From blaming it to now owning it. Yes, Foxx has entered the whiskey business and is now the proud owner of Brown Sugar Bourbon (BSB).
