Earlier in the week while I was watching the Mob Wives finale, I came across a commercial for Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta, which for those of you who don't watch the bafoonery on VH1 like I do, is a spin-off of the popular New York series that stars R&B singer Olivia, singer Teairra Mari, rapper Somaya Reece and Chrissy, the fiance of rapper Jim Jones to name a few.
Well after watching the trailer for this spin-off (that had producer Stevie J all up in it), it definitely got my curiousity as to who were these non-factors that was joining this show for a little fame and fortune.
Below is the press release from VH1:
VH1 is bringing a southern-fried tale of struggle, love and temptation to Atlanta, Georgia with an all new season of "Love & Hip Hop."
"Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta" proves love, music and the game know no boundaries. As the newest installment in the successful "Love & Hip Hop" franchise, "Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta" will feature an all new cast with their eyes on the prize of fortune, fame and family.
Among the main characters in this 10-episode series are Stevie J, a three-time Grammy Award-Winning producer who has worked with artists such as Diddy, Jay-Z and Mariah Carey, Stevie's longtime girlfriend Mimi Faust, and a fiery up-and-coming Latina rapper named Joseline.
There's no shortage of drama with this strong-willed trio. Also featured are Lil Scrappy, best known for his 2006 smash hit, "Money in the Bank," his girlfriend Erica Dixon, and his mother, a former hustler known as "Momma Dee."
The hometown hero, Atlanta rapper Rasheeda, is still searching for that big hit after years in the hip hop game, but she's constantly at odds with her manager Kirk Frost -- who also happens to be her husband.
Rounding out the cast are the talented songbird K Michelle, and Trinidadian R&B singer Karlie Redd.
Atlanta is the new frontier in entertainment, the Dirty South, where the opportunity to make it big in the rap game is always one hustle away. Centered in the heart of the South, these fiery ladies and gentlemen aren't looking to lead the debutante life.
With aspiring songbirds and rappers in the mix, the stakes are high as competition is fierce in both professional and personal arenas.
Striving to leave their mark beyond the red clay of Georgia, hip hop's southern princes and princesses are allowing nothing to stand between them and making it big in the game.
Only time will tell if this show will be as successful as the nigger nonsense on Love & Hip Hop, or if it will be a huge flop like the boring bitches that dominated Basketball Wives: LA. So if you are interested in watching this show make sure you tune in to the series when it premieres on Monday, June 18th at 8PM.
