{{main|Nation of Domination}}

In April 1997, Brown was reintroduced to the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) as a member of [[Ron Simmons|Faarooq]]'s [[Heel (professional wrestling)|heel]] [[Nation of Domination]] [[Glossary of professional wrestling terms#Stable|stable]], debuting as one of several non-descript people in suits that accompanied the group to the ring. During this time, his most notable moment was when [[Ahmed Johnson]] slammed him onto the roof of a car during ''[[Shotgun Saturday Night]]''. His first televised match as a member of the Nation was on the April 26, 1997, episode of ''Shotgun Saturday Night'', as he, [[Crush (wrestler)|Crush]], and [[Savio Vega]] defeated [[Aldo Montoya]], [[Steve Corino]], and [[Freddie Joe Floyd]]. On May 26, 1997, he had his first match on ''[[Raw is War]]'', defeating [[Bob "Spark Plugg" Holly]]. After the [[King of the Ring 1997]], Faarooq fired the rest of the Nation's members, except for D-Lo, who was later joined by [[Ahmed Johnson]] (later replaced by [[Rocky Maivia]]), [[Kama Mustafa]], and [[Mark Henry]]. 

In early 1998, the Nation of Domination [[Glossary of professional wrestling terms#Turn|turned]] on Faarooq, allowing Maivia, now going by the name "The Rock", to assume leadership. During this period Kama also changed his name to "The Godfather" and began portraying a pimp character. Brown and Henry eventually turned on both Rock and Godfather separately, moving into a feud with the Rock before finally branching out as a moderately successful [[tag team]], later turning [[Face (professional wrestling)|face]] along the way. Prior to the face turn, Brown had started wrestling with a chest protector, supposedly for a torn [[pectoral muscle]] sustained in a match against [[Dan "The Beast" Severn]]. Instead, he used the chest protector to his advantage, making his finishing move, the [[Lo Down]], more effective.<ref>{{cite news |last=Featherstone |first=Chris |title=D'Lo Brown Clears the Air About Droz, Talks Chest Protector, Low Point in WWE |url=https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2447573-dlo-brown-clears-the-air-about-droz-talks-chest-protector-low-point-in-wwe |access-date=February 12, 2021 |work=Bleacher Report |date=April 29, 2015}}</ref>
