DaBrat Addresses $6.4 Million Verdict in Video Response…

Mar, 6 2014 | Written by ATLien

It’s only been about three years since Da Brat (aka Shawntae Harris) was released from prison after serving 21 months for a nightclub assault and it’s been less than a week since the Atlanta-based rapper was ordered to pay Shayla Stevens, the victim in the incident, $6.4 Million dollars in a civil suit.

Shayla Stevens BEFORE Bottle Assault

According to court documents, Da Brat’s role in the bottle-wielding incident caused permanent facial scarring, neurological impairment, and severe mental pain to Stevens, a waitress & former NFL cheerleader.

Brat recently made a video addressing the judgment and she seems to be taking her multi-million dollar debt in stride, stating:

Like I said in court, I definitely shouldn’t have done what I did and the girl deserved some compensation, but $6.4m? Hell no. I don’t know where anybody gonna get that from. You can’t squeeze water from a turnip.”

It is what it is. When I start getting it, they’ll get some. They gotta wait in line like everyone else…

Feb, 22 2013 | Written by ATLien

Jermaine Dupri is gearing up for his SoSo Def 20th Anniversary concert and kicked things off with a private dinner with many of the artists that made his label great (February 21, 2013).

I’ve heard that tickets to the upcoming concert aren’t selling as fast as they would like, but the gang is still optimistic about the weekend’s festivities.

Artists such as Bow Wow and Chris Kelly of Kris Kross (who happened to have just met for the first time last night), Da Brat, Jagged Edge, LaTocha and Tamika Scott (Xscape), Dondria, Bonecrusher, Youngbloodz, Dem Franchize Boyz all broke bread in anticipation of the upcoming festivities.

Veteran music exec Michael Mauldin (JD’s father) as well as his Mom and daughter Shaniah also attended to show support.

Twitter Fail! Nicki Minaj Beefs With Da Brat By Mistake… [SCREENSHOTS]

Oct, 4 2012 | Written by ATLien

“Gangsta” rapper Nicki Minaj totally came for DaBrat on the social networking site twitter after she read the following statement allegedly sent from DaBrat’s account:

If you haven’t heard by now, Minaj recently cussed out Mariah Carey on the set of American Idol (click HERE if you missed that).

Apparently seeing that response from DaBrat (a close friend of Carey’s) sent her into a tizzy!

Nicki decided to strike back online, hitting twitter with a response referring to Brat as “Sir” and even threw in a lil shade about DaBrat’s finances as an added bonus.

Sad thing is… Da Brat had absolutely nothing to do with the statement Nicki read, and she ended up looking like a prime candidate for Anger Management!

Catch the explosive twitter exchange + Nicki’s public apology below… Continue Reading…
