Charles Hamilton and girlfriend Briana Latrise have issued a joint public apology for last week’s emcee battle that resulted in Latrise punching the Harlem rapper in the face.
In a viral clip released last week, Charles Hamilton was shown taunting a visibly agitated Latrise about having to pick him up from the airport.
Briana Latrise then challenged her boyfriend to a battle, launching several bars that seemed to allude to her volatile relationship with Hamilton.
The Harlemite responded with a rhyme that boasted about unprotected sex with Latrise that resulted in an alleged abortion.
These words caused her to cut Hamilton off mid-rhyme with a sneaky, thudding straight right to the jaw.
Subsequently, the clip received massive attention and debate amongst fans about whether it was publicity stunt.
Recently, both Hamilton and Latrise returned to camera to clarify their current status.
“Apparently people got it twisted,” Hamilton stated after hugging his woman. “I apologize honestly for putting some things out there that shouldn’t have been out there. I understand it; it was the heat of the moment and I didn’t get the chance to really talk to you about it. I just wanted to tell you I apologize because I know what I shouldn’t have said.”
Latrise acknowledged her role in the incident, and accepted Hamilton’s response while promising to keep their relationship issues a private matter.
“I’m going to thank you for your apology. I’m going to apologize for acting outside of the norm,” Latrise explained. “We’re going to talk about our personal business, on our personal time.”
Charles Hamilton has kept a busy schedule this year, releasing several mixtapes: Well Isn’t This Awkward, Every Charles Hamilton Ex-Girlfriend’s Worst Nightmare, My Brain Is Alive, The Dead Zone, At Most I’m Just…, and The Binge Vol. 1 (Staring At The Lavalamp) .
