VH1′s Love and Hip-Hop Atlanta is set to air in a few days and the cast celebrated with a premiere party for the new season of the show last week (June 13, 2012).

I’m trying my best to hold my tongue about this show because CLEARLY it is purely for entertainment, but I just wish there were some better representations of Atlanta on the show.
That being said, I’ll let y’all draw your own conclusions. But after watching a sneak peek of the premiere episode, I see umma have to hold my tongue and just let the cast get that VH1 dough.
Watch the FULL premiere episode below + Funky Dineva’s assessment of the tomfoolery…
A few things of note about this first episode…
Mama Dee (Lil Scrappy’s Mom) will be the Mama Jones of the Atlanta cast. She’s already got a few catch phrases that I’m sure we’ll be hearing all season…. even though I can’t recall right now what they were.
I can honestly see Mama Dee as the only true beneficiary of this show but we’ll have to just wait and see.
Lil Scrappy and his baby mama Erica Dixon’s story is a bit cliche. She’s the baby mama who says she’s more than a baby mama (but what is her occupation?).
Scrappy apparently left her at some point to be publicly with Diamond (formerly of Crime Mob). As you know, Diamond was one of the original cast members pegged for LHH ATL but she quit when Scrappy and his mom came aboard.
[READ: Guess Who Quit Love & Hip Hop Atlanta + the 2nd String Replacement]
Even with that… they spoke Diamond’s name at least 10 times throughout the premiere episode! I hope she got a check or at least a few t-shirts for the mentions.
Rasheeda and Kirk were pretty much null and void during this initial episode, so we’ll have to wait and see about their drama. Hopefully they kept it all under wraps.
And Stevie J and Mimi Faust either don’t give a flying f*ck about what their child will think about their “drama” playing out on television OR they’re practicing their acting. Either way… it’s all bad!
Especially considering… the chick he’s supposedly creeping with is a dude!
I swear Joseline is a dude and no one will EVER convince me otherwise!
Someone already spilled the tea to Sandra Rose saying there’s proof out there that Joseline is a MAN and don’t even get me started about what the “queens on the street” are saying…
As I said on twitter when I was watching the episiode, I predict Mona Scott-Young will pull a “Crying Game” ending on y’all this year… and if Stevie J. acts like he didn’t know he was boning a tranny we will ALL be giving him the side-eye (as if we aren’t already).
Funky Dineva summed it all up for you. If you need a lil comic relief… PRESS PLAY:

Entertain me for a minute here, that last individual on the right in the group picture. What exactly is it? I’ve seen some androgynous specimens in my time, but THAT….no ma’am/sir!
I understand everyone’s frustration that they didn’t involve the ATL’s "elite" but if you think about the original love and hip hop they did the same for NY. Who was checking for ANYONE on that show. Come on now Jim Jones Yandy Somaya Chrissy etc. Of all the people they could have used for LHH NY the cast was less than stellar BUT they GREW on everyone. Not saying that this show will grow on anyone but they used the same exact formula for NY and it worked.
Thanks for the video! I’ve been waiting to see this all week!!! I will be watching!!!
I’m done with Stevie J how did he and Mi Mi name their daughter Eva and he use to go with Rapper Eve before Mi Mi crazy…
This was so bad. It’s really sad to see adults behave in this manner. It’s an embarrassment for Atlanta. It appears to be scripted. I’m tired of seeing black women mistreated and abused. I wont be watching this garbage.
I totally agree. I have a real lack of respect for Mona Scott-Young and any other woman who makes their money off of showing women in this manner. Its ridiculous
I so agree with you Jenny. Makes me not even want to visit ATL.Scripted and the worse acting.Black women acting/being stupid and allowing themselves to look like straight up ratchet fools. And Jose Joseline that is/was a man and Stevie J’s trifling azz Knows it and so does everyone else.If those women (Mimi and Scrappy’s girl)really are living and putting up with that BS they some damned fools.
@youalreadyknow…while the original did not have anyone considered "elite" atleast we knew who they were! I have not the foggiest idea who any of these people are with the exception of scrappy. I’m an Atlanta transplant and it seems like all the people are only known locally which is strange with all the famous folk Atlanta has to choose from. I’ve heard of Rasheeda but couldn’t pick her out of a line up. With that said, I’ll watch the show but womp womp for not getting one single cast member that’s ever been a factor.
ugg Gross! Typical behavior..
Hott ghetto mess
I watched the first episode and this show is definitely going to be interesting. I like K’Michelle. She looks like Keyshia Cole. She reminds me of her when she first came out. I don’t understand why Mimi stays with Stevie J. He is obviously cheating on her. Joseline is definitely a dude. SMH
I’m not surprised about the quality of people that chose to be on the show. A lot of people were asked to be a part of L&HH ATL but declined.
Leslie
Who are these people except for scrappy? It’s clear this show is fake and everybody acting especially that female talking in the beginning about how sweet her man is. BORING!
Mimi been with Stevie J for 15years no ring can u say stupid she need to read think like a man…. Wasn’t Eve with Stevie J in between those 15 years she is sad
Yup. I’ll be watching..MiMi need to go upside Stevie’s head! Word is bond!! Whew, wanted to jump threw the screen and choke his ass!! LOL..
Mimi need to go upside her OWN head and choke her own ass. A man will always do what you allow him to do to you, so why go upside his head. Stevie J. obviously likes dyk anyways so why fight for/ over that?
That’s a man Maury!
I’m exhausted looking at mimi and stevie j 15yrs and you still putting up with this nonsense. momma dee is like momma jones. joseline is a man without a doubt. lil scrappy looking for affection aint that something.
Scrappy’s mama is a hot ass mess!!
lol
not only did STEVIE J date RAPPER EVE. he also dated WHOOPIE GOLDBERG daughter for a minute..GOOGLE IT!!!
He married Whoppie’s daughter! When this chick said they’ve been together for 15 years I immediately said "stupid" and assumed she is a chick that has nothing of her own and he provided everything for her. That’s why she stays. I’m sure the thought of her having to actally work and get her own makes her sick to her stomach. So she’ll stay with a man that’s screwing another man. That’s Joselene (Joe) is a man!
He also has a sex tape with Eve
This is an interesting specimen of a show. I think some of it is scripted for the sake of content and some of it is real. I understand what K. Michelle is going through because I’ve heard enough about how crazy she is, but when you need help after being abused like that and no one helps you in the industry, then of course people are going to shun you.
Stevie J. is messing with Joseline, he did the same thing with Eve (in which he broke up with in 2000). Which brings me to another interest point, if he was married to Mimi for 15 years………..oh well.
And Atlien, I believe you about Joseline, I think she either is a tranny (her breasts are implants + but injections) and she might have found the money to get a sex change, becuase I don’t know of any strip club where they let chicks with ‘a lil extra’ perform, unless she works at the more seedier establishments. It doesn’t sound too far fetched at the very least (Given Atlanta’s ‘other’ reputation).
Scrappy is cooler than I thought he was, even though Mama Dee is ‘unstable’.
But we will have to see.
MORE DRAMA THEN ALL MY CHILDREN!! I WILL DEF BE TUNED IN!! MONA SCOTT YOUNG DONE PULLED IT!! YESS GAWD!! LOL
BUT WAIT A MINUTE NOW…………DID STEVIE J NAME HIS DAUGHTER AFTER EVE?
This show seems too scripted
A true hott mess
I will be watching each week
……in that order (in my Momma Dee’s voice)
[...] Prince Williams/ATLPics Source: StraightfromtheA Share and [...]
i was skeptical after frank ski show. ill be watching bc of erica.diamond u even sound like a hot mess when others mention you.scrappy read the five love languages and hold erica down the way she held u down
Who the FUCK are these Losers? Dang might as well go down and ask anybody off the fucken streets, you wanna be on a show.
Atlanta Has become the City of Nobodies. Gets some real fucken Stars!
Who the FUCK are these Losers? Dang might as well go down and ask anybody off the fucken streets, you wanna be on a show.
Atlanta Has become the City of Nobodies. Gets some real fucken Stars! Most of the So called Ladies look like Fucken Men! He shes.
Mimi been with Stevie 15 years??? He had a Very Public relationship with Eve tho? If they really been togther that long I have no sympathy for her. She roll with his life style
If the "elite" were on thier "no one" would watch it. (ex: Who watched styled by June? My point exactly!
This is like a train wreck! You want to look away but you can’t!
Mimi! Mimi! Mimi!
Mimi is in denial! In her mind she knows what type of person Stevie J is but her her heart has yet to accept it.
Mimi friend on the show should not even entertain Mimi foolishness. All she should do is nod her head when she complains and say to her "Do what you feel is best" and follow it up with "I will support you in whatever decision YOU make. (cause Mimi is not going anywhere she in love with Stevie J)
Rasheedah- I do not see her being the break out star.
Karly- Is messy! (not because what she told Mimi) just her personality
scrappy: not memorable enough! I have to watch the show more to get a feel for him
Erika: She may love scrappy but because he hurt her in the past she is being cautious with her heart.
Scrappy Momma Dee: her favorite saying: ( and In that order) Is to funny and I believe she likes Erica for scrappy but his heart is somewhere else.
K michelle: I do not see the comparison between her and Keisha cole or anyone else. I like her as a singer (she can actually sing) (if she plays her cards right I can see her being one of the break out star and getting her music out there)
Joseline: I can see this person blowing up! amongst the rappers etc. I still say! this is man
People kill me saying who are these people but no one knew who lhh new york cast at first accept olivia….. Either get to know them by watching the show or don’t … Just saying
thats not true though…yes olivia was known..everyone knows jim jones and juelz santana so by extension people knew who chrissy was just from being pictured a few times. chrissy and kimbella ARE nobodies but their men arent which makes it more interesting. also had seen somaya reece before. knew who yandy was from her violator days and working in the industry.
mind you, i realize there are some people who know who these ATL people are(ppl from atl only) but i dont. scrappy was never as successful as dipset. stevie J’s prime was in the 1990s with Bad Boy so that aint even authentic ATL hip hop.
I feel like for a city like ATL with SO many black entertainers to choose from this cast falls extremely short. extremeeeeeeeely short.
Dont know where to start…but this is going to be one crazy season…Mimi is dumb.com…dont know what planet she reside on…Stevie is a dirt bag and i see thing at changed…remember leaking the Eve sex tape.#lowlife…and to name ur baby Eva..umm yeah wtdta….Karley seems like a opportunist to me…is this their version of Vince and Tamar…K Michelle has talent hope this show boost her career…but her allegations seem weird cause if u dont know she talking about Toya’s man Memphitz….scrappy mom off the chain…not in a good way either…she needs to stay up and out their relationship…glad the bm sticks up for herself….no opinion about Rasheeda and her man…Joseline….she crazy but i kinda like her running Stevie’s ass….that man fell in line quick….and rolled out on old girl….she got him in line…even though she jacked Rihanna swag x 10
mimi-emily b
momma dee- mama jones
k michelle-olivia
joseline- somaya
Lmao,but you’re so right.
rashida-chrissy
Joseline has that you’re a Very Pretty BOY look. Mama Dee and Mimi look strong in the face but Joseline looks like a tranny who’s had a few ladies men take care of shim. This is going to be Blackploitation at it’s finest Pure Coonery.
Did anyone peep the ancient ass 1995 computer screen in lil scrappy’s daughters room? Wtf? All that money and can’t even upgrade #epicfail
All what money…?
Mona has done it again. why oh why does she continue to find black and latina women to represent the negative of black and latina women? considering the subject matter and plots in this show it should be on at a latter time. young girls watching this show are going to get the idea that it is okay to sleep with another woman’s man or that it is okay to be with a man for umpteen years and live with the fact that he is cheating on you. let’s not forget the ensuing violance because you know it’s going to happen. hasn’t mona or VH1 learned anything from what’s going on with Basketball Wives. Myself, I’m interested in watching Hollywood Exes. That show is more positive and I’d rather watch black women uplift each other rather than tear each other and themselves down.
They know exactly what they’re doing. LHHATL is giving us exactly what we asked for when we continued to watch those other shows. Obviously it works. These shows are the new soap operas.
This show JUST got interesting…Memphitz is the one who allegedly beat K Michelle? Hmmm….Welp, what is done in the dark will come to the light hunni! Better ask Creflo and the rest of the woman beaters. Wonder how Toya feels about K Michelle saying that Memphitz spent her album budget tricking off on her…
Hmph! Keep the tea coming VH1…keep the tea coming!!!
Mona I’m disappointed in you, while you only mildly insulted our intelligence with the scripted basement drama of the original Love & Hip Hop, you have gone above and beyond with the fakeness of the ATL version. Serving us transgender realness while still holding his original package (Jose-line) and the fakest dialogue ever between Karlie Redd, Jose-line, Stevie J and Why -Mimi about who did or didn’t kiss who, you may be giving Shaunie O a run for the money for the most ratchet television show title.
Why is lil scrappy’s baby mama hould looks like that. These guys so called have money but her house a hoodrat’s apt. Girl u knew you were going to be on TV – u shol dhave hire an interior designer. WOw
Ummmm…..harpo who are these people?
It looked staged to me!! But very entertaining O_o
Its nota good look for stevie j, mimi & joseline.. Thats wat u call a hot ass mess!!. But hey its entertaining & will mos def b watchn!! If mimi like it,, i luv it!!!
I haven’t the slightest clue what to say, I was shocked watching the entire episode
Chile stop
i call Joselyn Rihanna with a taco lol
Its very entertaining, but no different than the other urban buffoonery that’s out now! Same script, different story!
Lol @ Rihana wita taco! That was a.good one
A train wreck going thru Mexico. Check Jose’ for a bat and 2 balls.
What can I say about Mimi?…..Stevie Wonder could see that boy is screwing Joseline. Did you hear that girl in the studio…..that girl has -100 amount of talent. The must see star of that show for me is Mama Dee crazy ass. When she gave the tea on rapper Diamond, I damn near O.D from laughter. To be honest, I like this show more than the original Love&Hip-Hop. These girls are more honest about their money. The New York girls were FRONTIN. Like please Olivea & Jim Jones & Juelz Santanna you aint had a radio hit since I was junior high. Yall need a Plan B-Z
it’s going beyond mad
better then the first love and hip hop jim jones and chrissy. sucks
Can’t press the like button for this..watched the tralor and its trash..looks staged and although we k its not real but come on..the acting? No. But ppl will watch it cause its a lot of drama…tv sucks and ppl will sale their soul for cheap
Dissapointing to Atlanta! Too fake, they did wayyy too much in one episode. They tried to make us feel for the characters like we got attached to chrissy and Jim but they tried to make it happen in one episode. It’s just a hot ass mess. And nobody likes stevie j’s ass . He’s acting like he’s diddy, when he’s not even relevant! He needs to have several seats, I hope scrappy knocks his ass out
Makes me ashamed to live in the A! Straight ghetto!!!!
I don’t know what to say about the episode, but I will be tuned in to watch what Mimi does
about the shit that’s going on!
Is this the same Stevie J that slick released the sextape with him and Eve, so he could get 15mins?? Lawd! Y’all gon get enough of making guttersnipes “famous” watching this trash.
garbage!!!!!
How did Stevie Jay lose all his money??Did he marry Woopie’s daughter for money?
He was engaged to Whoopi’s daughter within this 15 year time frame that MiMi is talking about. This must be for TV. There are at these premiers together so, she must still be with him after all the cheating stuff.
Too much in one show. Im hooked, and will be watching next week. IN THAT ORDER!
Wow, I didn’t know Joseline was a man. She does look more like a man on those pictures.
“That’s some bullshit”(in Kandi’s Mom’s voice). The show was hot garbage Oh and am I the only one that thinks Joseline is a boy????
TRASH and SAD… Another show degradin our race
MiMi Need 2Tell StevieJ 2Beat It Like Micheal&Don’t Take It Off Like Janet,And The RiRi Wanna B Joseline Is A HAM,Talking Bout I’m Gonna Make Him A Billion Dollas,HOmewreacker Just Cause U Make A Song Don’t Mean Somebody Gonna Buy It,He Need 2Send Yo Ass Back 2The StripClub!Other Than That I Liked Theshow,,,,Team MiMi All Day!!!!
