Bow Wow Responds To Da Brat Calling Him Out For 'Discrediting' Jermaine Dupri

December 14, 2018

Bow Wow has responded to Da Brat calling him out over his comments about Jermaine Dupri and 106 & Park, saying he’d never engage in a war of words with his former labelmate.

The “Like You” star sparked a heated debate over the weekend by disputing Dupri’s claim that he came up with the idea for BET’s 106 & Park as a Black-friendly alternative to MTV’s popular countdown show TRL (Total Request Live).

“JD aint create 106&Park stop the cap,” Bow Wow, who hosted the show between 2012 and 2014, tweeted on Sunday (December 18). “Stephen hill Rick Ghrimes & all the great people in the BET OFFICE & staff created that show. All i did was capitalize off of what they created and made it mine. I would know…. I am mr 106! I would never take away from someones creativity.”

Da Brat, one of the most successful and longest-serving acts on Jermaine Dupri’s So So Def label, didn’t take kindly to Bow Wow’s attempt to “discredit” Dupri and put the rapper/actor on blast in an Instagram post.

“Man wtf? I really don’t have the time or patience for this shit but I got BOTH TODAY,” she wrote. “Bow what I can’t letchu do is discredit my big brother JD who u called your dad for so many years cuz that is pretty much the roll you gave him and instead of sayin hell no, he rocked w it.

“You are being so rude and disrespectful to the person who believed in you, nurtured you, made you a complete star, wrote all yo hits, accepted the challenge when Snoop brought you to him. He has never done ANYTHING to you but help. I aint’ finna letchu drag the most non confrontational person who loved, cared for u and spoiled yo ass for years.”

She added: “He isn’t and never would discredit BET execs. He discussed creating 106 b4 it was created so black people could have their own TRL. NO CAP! If this is watchu wanna do…LET’S FUCKIN GO! Pull up lil n-gga witcho disrespectful ass. So ungrateful.”

The Funkdafied rapper kept her foot on Bow Wow’s neck in her caption, writing: “@shadmoss You really on some BULLSHIT RIGHT NOW. Now u KNOW I got ALL da receipts and know the WHOLE stories to ALOT ALOT!

“Don’t do this. Respect a legend. Respect a cultural icon. Respect the person who made your career what it is. I’m asking you now to please stop. I’m sorry @jermainedupri I cannot be silent about this shit any longer.”







Bow Wow reacted to Da Brat’s stern post while addressing the fallout to his comments on Twitter on Monday morning (December 19). “Man i ld never go back n forth with brat online. she know that. We spoke yesterday,” he wrote in response to a fan who brought up his former labelmate’s post.

In response to another fan who urged him to take a less diplomatic approach to Da Brat’s comments, he tweeted: “Yo chill. I have the upmost respect for brat. Thats my word. I would never disrespect her and she knows that. She just taking up for her dawg as she should. She the real day 1. Not me.”

He also left a comment on Da Brat’s Instagram post that read: “I dont mess with brat when she off henny [crying face emoji] ima call her tomorrow hahaha [halo emoji].”

In other tweets, Bow Wow defended his original comments as him “telling the truth” and pointed out that former BET executive Stephen Hill also challenged Dupri’s assertion that he created 106 & Park.

“We live in a weird time when telling the truth is being rude. Or keeping it a buck is disrespectful…. You cant be serious,” he wrote, before adding: “I aint even do nothing i said it was a lie. Stephen hill even came out and said it was a lie. Hahaha how is that rude? Now lying and taking credit is cool? Come on bro.”

In an Instagram comment shared on Bow Wow’s Instagram Stories, Hill wrote in response to Dupri’s claim: “Yeahhhhhhh our memories on how 106 & Park was created differ GREATLY. now, NO ONE challenges that Bow Wow helped launch 106 to great heights…that is for sure true. But ‘CREATED BY ME’ might be a bit of an overstep for ya, my man. Love you ALWAYS!!!”

The comments that sparked the whole debate came during JD’s recent appearance on the The GAUDS Show podcast. “106 & Park was created by me. I created the show for Bow Wow,” the So So Def founder said.

“I was watching MTV, and MTV had TRL. And they were catering to NSYNC and they were catering to Backstreet Boys and anything white that was coming out that was Pop. And I was like, ‘Yo, we don’t have nothing for Black people like that. Like, where’s the Black kids that love music, why don’t they have a show like that?’

He continued: “So I called Stephen Hill and I said, ‘Yo, I got an artist, we need to make a show just like TRL.’ And he said, ‘What’s the artist?’ And I said Bow Wow. Everybody challenges what I’m saying. Mind you, they wasn’t gonna put Bow Wow on TRL like that because he was a rapper. He was a Black, little young boy rapping. But he also was 12 years old. Nobody on TV was 12 years old anywhere creating this type of pandemonium.”
