![RECAP: 5 ‘Life Lessons’ Revealed on #RHOA S7 Ep15 + Watch Full Episode… [VIDEO]](http://cdn.straightfromthea.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/real-housewives-of-atlanta-season-7-715-161-520x438.jpg)
The cast is set and the show has been filming around town for several weeks now. I revealed early last month a few of the people who would be including in the cast (click HERE if you missed that), well while the cast of characters haven’t officially been announced, I have information on just about all the players.
So without further ado, here’s the TEA I’ve been promising about the cast of characters who’ll be featured on Love & Hip Hop Atlanta.
First let me start with who’s NOT going to be on the show…
Rapper Shawty Lo and his longtime girlfriend Ecreia were shoe-in’s for the Atlanta version of the popular show.
With his 10 kids (yes… Lo has TEN kids) and tons of baby mama drama, Shawty Lo and his boo stuntin’ around Bankhead would have made for great television, but rumor has it that it was Lo’s felonious background and his boo’s gun charges that prevented producers from officially adding him to the cast.
Rici was also rumored to be on board, but as taping began she wasn’t on the set. Word on the curb is that producers were pulling out all the stops to create conflict and Rici’s “connection” to the drama between Atlanta rapper Yung Joc and his wife was allegedly something she wasn’t willing to go through on air. And you already know if she won’t there are others who will.
So moving on…
Here are the people who WILL be on the show…
Rasheeda and her husband Kirk Frost will reportedly be the headliners on the show. Frost manages Rasheeda in her music career and also partners in her “I’m Bossy” accessories business. The two have managed to maintain a successful relationship thus far by keeping it OUT of the public eye.
Many people were surprised to hear Rasheeda was married with an 11 year old son, so it’ll be interesting to see what storyline develops with the pair on air.
Producer Stevie J is also officially on board.
Stevie J (born Steven Jordan) is originally from upstate New York and you may recognize his name as rapper EVE’s ex booski. [Sidebar: If I remember correctly, the two had a sex tape leak just prior (or probably right after) their break up. but I digress… ]
Stevie J is a music industry vet and is now an Atlanta resident. 
He’s a musician, singer, record producer and songwriter and was an in-house producer and writer during the 90’s on Sean “Puffy” Combs’ Bad Boy Records.
His credits include 90′s classics like 112′s “Only You” featuring Notorious B.I.G,”Mo Money Mo Problems”, Nasty Boy”, “Notorious Thugs” featuring Bone Thugs, “Another”, “You’re Nobody”, and “Last Day” just to name a few of Biggie’s classics.
In addition to Eve, Stevie J was also linked to Whoopi Goldberg’s daughter, Alexandria Martin. He’ll reportedly be on the show with his girlfriend, “MiMi” and an up & coming female artist he’s developing.
I’ll update with her name later, but she’s a latin chick and my sources couldn’t remember her name but said she was causing a lot of drama so far.
I told you in my earlier post that Diamond was on board but apparently so is her ex-boyfriend Lil Scrappy!
Diamond and Lil Scrappy used to be THE hood couple prince and princess in Atlanta before Scrappy’s money got funny and Diamond started flouncing around town with Soulja Boy.
Cue Scrappy’s Mama (aka Mama D) and her on-air Atlanta radio interview where she called Scrappy’s long-time love a “low down dirty b*tch” for what she did to her son.
[READ: Lil Scrappy’s Mom is PISSED at Diamond for Dating Soulja Boy + Scrappy’s Response – AUDIO ]
I’ve heard that Scrappy & his mom’s addition to the cast has Diamond feeling some kinda way (Mama D seriously wanted to fight the girl for what she did to Scrappy) and word is Diamond may already be OUT if she can’t stand the heat.
Scrappy and Mama D are rumored to be kinda like the “Jim Jones/Mama Jones” of Atlanta… so yup you guessed it! Love & Hip Hop Atlanta is gonna be a hot ghetto mess!
Will you be watching?
**UPDATE 3/14/2012** GUESS WHO QUIT THE CAST! + The 2nd String Replacement…

WELP! 1 thing about you is. You keep us POSTED! DO that Mama!
Hell yes! LOL! This is going to be good!
so wait… I thought they would have wayyy more people than that. But hey I didn’t even know Rasheeda was married. Should be interesting.
Sidenote: Michelle, did you see Marlo’s blog post on bravo.com? When did they start letting her do blogs???
@SFTA…u the best! of course i will be watching. i bet this show will accumulate more ratings than NY. im hoping they involve more than diamond and rasheeda. we need a nemesis. hoping they bring waka’s ghetto moms into the mix. oh and as u’ve said, i had no idea rasheeda was married with an almost teenager son.
i wont be watching , i dont watch now, the only one i watch is real housewives of atlanta!!!! lol now please tell me what happened between kandi and lawrence..lol
Yea, this is gonna be straight hood. I love Rasheeda….i knew a while back she was married, i always wanted to see what her husband looked like. Not bad!
So it’s just going to be Diamond and Rasheeda?
Who cares there ole ass had too much drama
this show will be wack not like the origanal
who is rasheeda?
A hot effin’ mess….*smh*
It is the people, with their slikls, that make what is called wealth. Wealth is not a something that needs redistribution. People are about free-will and respect. Government should work on infrastructure, defense, and education (without the social engineering please). I do not see Obama, GE, Halliburton, BP, or George Soros getting out of our way any time soon. How sad.
that ain’t hot! in my tamar braxton voice.
guess who has a blog of their own now? lol MARLO!!! I was just on facebook and on the real housewives of atlanta page Marlo has just been added her own blog…looks like she’s going to be the new housewife afterall….lol lol lol GO MARLO, TEAM MARLO!!!!
un un i dont think i like dis…not one bit …who is this cast lmao!!! yall might as well have put me on the show….mona showing out for this one. fire the casting director.
wait a minute mona do know how to get a good show tho (she a sneaky broad behind the scene) so i guess ill still tune in….p.s. dont get it wrong i like me some mona despite that comment.
I knew Rasheeda would make the cut, I like her mix tapes!
So how many of these hood ninjas are gay? Lil Scrappy looks quite suspect. I mean it is Atlanta. The women are all sliding up and down the pole and the men are all shoving the pole up their hind parts. I will watch the initial episodes just so I can see how really ratchet ATL has become but honestly, these people are more known in the south and not the rest of the country. Rasheeda who?
smh i love “love and hip hop” but by bringing this show to atlanta will just make this city really look bad. the reputation this city already has is not a good one and by airing ghetto hood folk on television to represent atlanta is not going to make it look any better. im interested in the show and by all means not knocking it. im just worried about the image of this city. i think atlanta house wives should be the main show atleast they represent with class “most of the time”.
Scrappy….oh hell yeah,I watching this….
is his mother talkin about the STD he caught….?
nop i dont even know who these fools are
SFTA you holdin back. From what I Know Rasheeda and Diamond have been tryin to get a show since Neffy and Keisha Cole. The show was suppose to include Rasheeda, Diamond, Kandi, Tiny, and one of the mama’s from the OMG girlz. Well, too many women equal too much drama. Tiny ended up doing a show with Toya and Kandi went on to RHOA. Toya joined Tiny after some sort of fallout with Rasheeda (or maybe TI & Rasheeda’s husband had a fallout). Anyway everybody went about their merri way and Rasheeda & Diamond were left in the wind. A close family friend works for TP productions. I thought everybody new that. Tighten up ATLien!!
I’ve never heard of any of these people.
check in box
Same here, I read through the entire article and I don’t know who any of these ppl. are, never heard of any of them, :(. Are local celebs?
ATLien I think you have the wrong Stevie J … the Stevie J that was Eve’s ex and an in house producer for Bad Boy Ent (a part of the hitman)back in the day is a different Stevie J (@hitmansteviej on twitter) … the Stevie J in this post is the resident dj at LIV, the club in miami, on Sundays (@whoissteviej on twitter) … neither one of them live in Atlanta
DaMarrié, took the words out my mouth.
I don’t watch Reality shows , Really I like to stimulate my mind not fill it with Bs. But I do read blogs and piece together hood rats. Funny how Marlo rap sheet is longer than her Yaki but was added to Rhoa . Womp
this is not accurate. first of all shawty lo doesn’t mess with that chick anymore..he messes with a girl named jai jai who is also an up and coming female rapper. If you look into alot of his behind the scenes shit or into his videos..she’s always around. ALSO, diamond just said on twitter that she is NOT apart of the cast.
Not gonna front, Ill be watching but honestly I thought Rasheeda got down with females. But yes Ill be watching. We need a Love & HipHop: West Coast represent.
who are these people?
since diamond is denying her role on L&HH ATL, i wonder who will be rasheeda’s sidekick?
@Tammi That picture is the wrong Stevie J but "Stevie J" the Bad Boy producer has lived in Atlanta for years and he released a press statement last month that he had joined LHH Atlanta. So at least that part is right.
Unfortunately that still doesn’t make me want to watch any of these hoodlums
Dear Mona: Try again!
Uh yeah I won’t be watching it’s enough reality t.v on that already show’s African Americans in a bad light!
STEVIE J’S BABYMAMA, MIMI(who owns a house cleaning service), IS BEST FRIENDS WITH DIDDY’S BABYMAMA, SARAH. THEY HAVE BEEN BESTFRIENDS FOREVER. MAYBE THEY WILL GET STUCK UP SARAH TO MAKE AN APPEARANCE AND SHE CAN TRY TO BE FAMOUS FOR SOMETHING BESIDES DIDDY’S SEED……..JENNY JONES!!!!
Smh people like to see people make a fool of themselves so this is perfect entertainment. Couldn’t Mona have found some somebody’s from Atlanta. Like these are like all C listers. Atlanta has more hot people. Monica and Rocko woulda been great. Guess the people with class have more sense.
First of all, Carlos(LO) has 19 kids NOT 10 and his own sister told me that.
Second, this cast is weak. The people on this show has no real hip hop success and they are weak. What a f*cked up way to rep the A!
:-Absolutely not.
[…] Straight From the A also reports Scrappy’s mama, Mama D, will also be in the mix. And Diamond reportedly is feeling a way about it. Mama D apparently can’t stand Diamond after her and Scrappy’s breakup since some dirt was done. She called Diamond a "low down dirty b*tch" on an ATL radio station interview last year and went IN on homegirl. Sounds like a Jim Jones/Nancy Jones type portrayal. […]
Just plain GHETTO!
"Harpo!….Who Dem People?!!"
All I know about Shorty Lo is when was on a NY radio station. They asked him “do you have almost twenty kids?” He said “I claim about 10 ‘cause I’m not sure if they all mine (he was dead serious)” Once I heard that I was like “so you got money to throw around in videos but you can’t get a wholesale deal at the local DNA spot”. Last time I gave Mr. Sharpee another thought.
Scrappy and his mom are ridiculous! They live up to every hood stero type even going to jail with your momma.
I am all for supporting a black business, but try again Mona. Think she would have had more luck doing a west coast version or another round of NY with a new cast

Won’t be watching it. Nothing but another whack not-so-reality show giving washed-up, has-been "stars" a second chance at fame. This cast is LAME! I’m sick of these second-rate spin-off shows. And who wants to see another reality show based in Atlanta? There’s already the "Kermit and Ms. Piggy: The family Hustle and the "Real Divorcees of Atlanta." No one wants to see more of that over-populated, in the closet city, disgrace to the black race city. All of these cast members are just ghetto, ignorant black folk with a little money. If that’s grounds for developing a reality show around, I know plenty of candidates. Nothing special about this show, its cast or the city its filmed in.
[…] knows that Nivea and Rasheeda are close friends and I revealed to y’all IN THIS POST that Rasheeda and her husband Kirk Frost were confirmed to be participating in the show since day […]
Never heard of any of these people but I’ll watch just to see some drama.
[…] Diamond Gotta Lotta Money official video. This is her first solo video since leaving Crime Mob. The rapper had hoped this would re-launch her career. Gotta Lotta Money failed to chart on Billboard but was nominated for a BET Award. A year later the star hopes to make her mark with the series Love And Hip Hop Atlanta. The cast is set and the show has been filming around town for several weeks now Read more here. […]
Trina, keyshia cole, diamond, monica n ciara would have been my cast choice
