Thornton<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Da Brat\u2019s beef with Deb stems from a bootcamp-style reality series that the pair were reportedly working closely on before it was passed on by networks. The rapper alleged that the premise for the show would later become the blueprint for Antney\u2019s series <em><a href=\"https:\/\/bossip.com\/3941086\/debs-house-finale-clip\/\" type=\"post\" id=\"3941086\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Deb\u2019s House<\/a><\/em>, but that she was given no credit or producer nods for her part in its creation. <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe network wanted to do a boot camp show, so we pitched it to them. Me [and] Deb,\u201d said Brat on her <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/darealbbjudy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Facebook Watch reality show.<\/a> \u201cWhatever happened, they ended up saying they wanted to do something else after that. So, I have been holding on to this idea for a long time or whatever, and I have been talking back and forth today.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She later said that she reached out to an exec about the show idea and was flabbergasted to hear that Deb had allegedly beaten her to the punch and excluded her from the idea. <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2018\u201dI hit him one day, like,\u2019Yo, me and Deb need to talk to you about doing a boot camp show!&#8217;\u201d So he goes, \u2018Oh, she pitching it to me today.&#8217;\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe pitched the deck together,\u201d she added. \u201cSome ideas were hers, and some are mine. I\u2019m not taking full credit for it, but it was our ideas collectively put together to build this boot camp, and I just didn\u2019t think she would go pitch it without me. I felt so stupid. I couldn\u2019t say s*** to this man.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram\"\/>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, Deb\u2019s version of events differs greatly from that of Brat\u2019s. She alleges that the pair worked on a show that was entirely different and that she would never intentionally cut the rapper out of a deal due to how close they once were. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe did have something there,\u201d Deb told <em>The Breakfast Club\u2019s <\/em>Loren Lorosa about the drama. \u201cWe actually filmed a part to see the reaction of the people and what would happen but the network denied us. Now, the bootcamp that me and Da Brat was talking about, it was going to be a real camp. We went and scouted the housing where the bootcamp was gonna be, where they was going to be marching, we did do that. <em>Deb\u2019s House<\/em> was not a bootcamp, <em>Deb\u2019s House <\/em>was you against you. One of my biggest problems is that I don\u2019t know how to keep my mouth shut, like I want to invite everybody into whatever I\u2019m thinking about doing. And this whole thing, I talked to Da Brat about.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She continued, <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cFor her to say I stole a show \u2013 she\u2019s wrong. They denied that show \u2014 that show was denied years ago. So why now come up? \u2026Do you know how bad this is piercing me? This hurts.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram\"\/>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instead of clapping back, Da Brat responded to Deb\u2019s heartfelt response by hopping on the fake Netflix documentary social media trend, pretending to sit down for a Surviving Deb expos\u00e9. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram\"\/>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Deb has since shared another post, maintaining that her concept dates back to 2014 and accusing Da Brat of chasing clout through their alleged issue. <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIve BEEN doing this\u2026.Opening doors for others and creating opportunities. THIS IS FROM MY ORIGINAL BOOTCAMP SHOW IN 2014 BEFORE GROWING UP HIP HOP where I allowed Brat to be my GUEST judge. Stop lying on me. You need clicks and views, find someone else to use.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram\"\/>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both Brat and Deb have played a huge role in hip hop\u2019s massive crossover success as women in the game, and hopefully, they can get to the bottom of their issues before their relationship is completely irreparable. <\/p>\n<aside id=\"ione-ve-expanded\" class=\"ione-ve\">\n<\/aside><\/div>\n<script async=\"async\" data-cfasync=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/pl30214220.effectivecpmnetwork.com\/9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\/invoke.js\"><\/script>\r\n<div id=\"container-9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\"><\/div>\r\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Da Brat claims she and Deb Antney pitched a bootcamp show idea together, but Antney later pitched it without her Antney denies stealing the idea, saying their proposed show was different from her &#8216;Deb&#8217;s House&#8217; series The two music industry veterans have played key roles in hip-hop&#8217;s success, hoping to resolve their dispute Da Brat&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5692,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/bossip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2026\/07\/image-collage-35.jpg?quality=80&strip=all&w=1680&crop=0,0,100,960px","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5691","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-celebrity-gossip"],"brizy_media":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/usnews-14267fa.ingress-comporellon.ewp.live\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5691","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/usnews-14267fa.ingress-comporellon.ewp.live\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/usnews-14267fa.ingress-comporellon.ewp.live\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usnews-14267fa.ingress-comporellon.ewp.live\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usnews-14267fa.ingress-comporellon.ewp.live\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5691"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/usnews-14267fa.ingress-comporellon.ewp.live\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5691\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usnews-14267fa.ingress-comporellon.ewp.live\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/5692"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/usnews-14267fa.ingress-comporellon.ewp.live\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5691"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usnews-14267fa.ingress-comporellon.ewp.live\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5691"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usnews-14267fa.ingress-comporellon.ewp.live\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5691"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
