UPDATE: TMZ has the video of the courtroom.There goes my girl! It's tough in Georgia. Rapper DA BRAT has been sentenced to three years in prison for striking a waitress with a rum bottle at a nightclub last year (07). A Superior Court Judge ruled on Friday (22Aug08) the hip-hop hitmaker - real name Shawntae Harris - will also serve seven years probation and 200 hours of community service for the incident in addition to her jail time. Harris, 34, was involved in the altercation at a Halloween party at Studio 72 nightclub in Atlanta, Georgia, on 31 October 2007.
The pair were reported by police to have gotten into an altercation prior to the assault - resulting in the victim's hospitalisation and permanent facial scarring. Harris entered a guilty plea to aggravated assault in the case. According to reports, the rapper pleaded to her weeping family as she was led out of the courtroom, saying: "I love y'all." Harris was previously convicted in 2000 for misdemeanor reckless conduct. We hear she will only serve 12 months out of it.
I know both the victim and Shawntae well. The victim was an Atlanta Falcon cheerleader and her face was really messed up. We all have a lesson to learn about this. All our female rappers are sending bad messages to our girls!!! Ladies! Ladies, can you all be like Queen Latifah and be a role model?
