Learning to Cope - Da Brat offered advice to those that may have a hot temper: "If you feel yourself getting that angry or if you feel your blood boiling—because [when] I felt my adrenaline pumping, it was almost like I was about to explode—when you get to that point either you better count to 10, either you better pray or just walk away or do whatever you can, but don’t proceed with what you know is not right.”(Photo: Darnell Williams/BET)

Spreading the Love - Before Da Brat was locked up, Mo’Nique did a show in which she visited women in prison.  As Mo’Nique put it, "Often times we throw us away.
