Members of the Portmore Empire have lashed out at deejay Deva Bratt for his repeated attempts to discredit the organisation.

"Deva must stop trying to look a hype, if it wasn't for the Teacha, there would be no Portmore Empire. Deva get himself into a situation because him mek some poor choices and now him a try bring down the organisation that push him into the public's face," one member said.

Other members suggested that Deva was a 'pervert', a sick youth who could not control his sexual urges and that he should try to deal with his problem before he went around making statements that he cannot prove.

"If him tek this route, him only ah go kill him hand, him fi realize that this is not about him. The organisation is about business, this is nothing personal against Deva Bratt, him need fi sort out him legal problems and den build back, but if him do this, me caan be his friend," another one said.

"If him diss Teacha, Deva nah go have no career, anno Teacha tell him fi go jail pon two carnal abuse charge, ah just because mi nuh waan talk who Deva Bratt really is...him fi just easy himself and be a soldier."

In the meantime, Vybz Kartel has remained calm and collected in the face of Deva's stinging allegations, only denying that he ever did a song that made specific reference to Deva Brat as a rapist.

He issued a statement through his publicist that said: "The Portmore Empire is a registered trademark of Adidjaheim Records and was registered almost two years ago with the Jamaica Intellectual Property Office (JIPO). All Portmore Empire artistes are signed to Adidjaheim Records, and only signed artistes are accorded certain privileges."

The release further stated that the Portmore Empire does not associate itself with anyone who is involved with any case of carnal abuse or exploitation of women.

"Deva Brat was not kicked out of the Empire, he never signed, so he was never officially in the Empire. He is a troubled youth, mi see him diss up Zabrick and the yutes dem around him when him de Highlanders rounda Wong...and when him say Empire, him get the chance fi buss and dash it way," one high-ranking member said.

Deva Bratt hopes to make bail on the second carnal abuse charge by Christmas. He told One876Entertainment.com that he would be out by Christmas.

"When me come out, things ah go different, right now, people line up round the block fi bail me. When mi come out, yu ah go see everything," he promised.
