James Patrick Herman Rapper, actress and radio personality Da Brat has more than just the cover of Variety‘s Pride Issue to celebrate this week: the first female hip-hop artist to go platinum also just dropped new music.

The timely “Quarantine With U” arrived with no set-up or fanfare, in a move that might make you think of Beyoncé. “I wish,” jokes Brat.But divas have a presence in the “Dish Nation” host’s life as Brat recently found herself at the top of the iTunes overall chart thanks to her longtime galpal and frequent collaborator Mariah Carey.“Me and Mariah are both Aries and we’re both eternally twelve, so we hit it off from the get go,” Brat says of their initial bond.
