Da Brat Gets Three Years in Jail

without comments

Here’s a lesson to all of the children out there. Just because rappers say that it’s cool to hit someone with a liquor bottle, and some rappers actually do it in real life, doesn’t mean that it works out in the end for everyone.

Da Brat, real name Shawntae Harris, got three years for going upside the head of a waitress at an Atlanta nightclub last Halloween. Upon release, she’ll have 200 community service hours, seven years probation, and likely, a record deal and reality show.

I used to be so in love with Da Brat in high school, despite the fact that rumors have always pegged her as a lover of the ladies. I always thought she was a good rapper, and as we got older, I figured she would transition into some acting or entrepreneurial pursuits.

Instead, a talent is wasted, like so much liquor on the floor of a Buckhead nightclub.
