The AJC reports that the show is a MONSTER hit for VH1, with last week’s episode accumulating over 3.5 million viewers.
[WATCH: Love & Hip Hop Atlanta Episode 5 ~ "No Apologies" (FULL VIDEO)]
While there hasn’t been an “official” announcement, it’s obvious that there WILL be a season 2 negotiated for the top rated show and word on the curb is that there will also be a few cast changes the next go round.

Rasheeda and her hubby Kirk Frost have been ride or die for each other for years but the stress and pressure of the show is slowing tearing their once strong relationship to shreds.
I heard several months ago that Kirk really wasn’t feeling the way he was being portrayed on the show and that he almost immediately regretted signing up.
That being said, Kirk will always continue to stand by his wife when it comes to her career goals and the pair would rather split up on air than in “real life,” so guess what that means?
Rasheeda stays and Kirk goes.
Kirk isn’t willing to play the reality show game so he’s stepping back in order to let Rasheeda shine.
I’m not sure exactly how it will play out onscreen, but however Mona decides to edit it, trust me when I tell you the couple is doing just fine.

Ok. Now…. here’s the real scoop!
I told y’all right before the season started about a few sudden cast changes ie Atlanta rapper Diamond abruptly quitting the show because the Lord told her to (click HERE if you missed that).
Well it appears that Miss. 32 Flavors had a change of heart and now she’s recruited her on again/off again sponsor boyfriend Soulja Boy to take part in the festivities.

While I’m sure Momma Dee is still fuming over Diamond’s treatment of her son, that’s of no consequence to either of the hip-hoppers who are probably looking forward getting to those LHHA checks!
I don’t know if you heard, but Soulja Boy recently hooked up with Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson for a “Father/Son” mixtape.
[Sidebar: I'm almost positive the entrepreNegro in Fiddy gave SB a bit of solid advice: Follow the money!]
While’s he’s prolly much better off financially than Scrappy, Soulja Boy seems to have been struggling a bit as far as his rap career goes. So what’s easier than getting paid to hook back up with a chick he once referred to as “trash”?
Conveniently enough, Soulja Boy and Diamond made their “re-appearance” as a couple during the 2012 BET Awards last month and even spoke about their rumored new employer during a red carpet interview. Peep game…
I wish everybody the best. I feel like only one person can judge me, and that’s God. That’s my past.
I’m in the future right now, and I wish everybody the best.
Soulja Boy also had a few words to say about the situation…
This is my baby, this is my girl…so anything said about her is basically they’re saying it about me … I’m backin’ her 100% and we’re just focusing on the positive.
Anybody talkin’ about her name on TV, that’s just bringin’ us up more. So salute to them, we wish them the best.
And by “we wish them the best,” the made for reality tv couple means “cut the check”!
What do you think of these rumored cast changes?

Kirk should stay on there because he represent a positive place where men should be with their lady/wife. I love watching Kirk and Rasheeda 2gether……..much love to both of them……he is doing what is best for the marriage.
Good idea, but, postive images of black men are not allowed on TV in this country, gold toothed, silly tatooed hood rats is all they want to show.
The sad part is becasue they are a strong married couple, and he seems to be a positive black man is the reason why reality tele isn’t the place for him. Scrappy and Stevie will do just fine on this show!!!
Sorry…I think the show could keep some balance…all the girls are single…I’m sure they will have boyfriends especailly the man eater..lmao…let the byfrnds come on the show…I don’t know Soulja boy like that..I know he’s young so that’s automatic drama…lol we have two drama filled men in Scrap and Stevie J…we really don’t need too much more….they seem to keep the foolery going very well..Kirk is a business man, a family man…his hoes(not saying he has any) are not popping up telling Sheeda…your husband don’t care about you…or I’m pregnant. I didn’t like it when they added people to L&HH NY…Stick to what is working….Mona Scott-Young
So sad but true!
I TOTALLY DISAGREE. HE’S HER MANAGER BUT SHE CALLS THE SHOTS WHICH ARE USUALLY WRONG. ITS THE BLIND LEADING THE BLIND. IF HE WOULD’VE HAD A STRONGER BACKBONE SHE MIGHT’VE HAD REAL SUCCESS. WHEN THEY WERE HAVING THE CONVO ABOUT NEW MANAGEMENT, I WAS SOOOOO WAITING ON THE CAMERA TO SHOW HIM FACE DOWN BITING THE PILLOW CRYING LIKE THE BITCH HE SOUNDED LIKE WHEN HE ASKED ‘SO YOU’RE FIRING ME’? OMGoodness!!!! LOL!!! I WAS TO DONE WITH HIS WEAK AZZ. GOOD HUSBAND, BAD MANAGER!………..JENNY JONES!!!
OMG true that! I am soo sick of his overly sensitive sniffling azz. I swear that negro look like a straight beotch every time I see him crying about something on the show. He for real needs to MANager up and stop all that damn crying. It is SOOO NOT-sexy.
I’m actually glad Kirk stepped down. We have seen plenty of times what reality tv does to couples and married couples.

this is going to be interesting
They need to get rid of Mama Dee too. But while we are at it Michelle. ..I heard Phaedra divorce rumors again. Do you care to clear this up? I knew something had to be up when she released those pictures of her ass and back fat. I know that any husband would not approve of that!
Okaaaaay! The back fat had me hurlin. I ain’t sayin it don’t exist in the real world, and I’m glad not everyone is a size 1/2. But don’t EVAH publish pictures that show back rolls. It ain’t good for business.
i thought i was the only one that felt that way and then they say she got mad cause the production crew or something seen her in it, i give her points for boldness, but as a Christian Woman she should not have had her ass out in the first place (unless it was her and her husband at home or with no camera’s around) yes I have rocked a thong bikini before (on trip with hubby, no back fat though) and wasn’t no damn camera crew around(ijs)
Shit I got back fat!!!
yes indeed!
Oh, if this is true, then whew lawd, Season 2 may be a bit more explosive then Season 1. LHHATL has blown the LHHNY/NJ cast out of the water!!! However, I do hope something can be worked out to where Kirk decides to stay because he and my girl Rasheeda really DO bring such a good balance to the show as a couple.
well damn, bring it on!!!!!
well- the fact i just asked myself “whose Kirk?…
I like Rasheeda. I think she should leave the show also. They dont really show her story line that often. I guess because she doesnt have any drama besides not wanting Kirt as her manager
I agree if it’s affecting their relationship she should quit also.
That is because she had a lot of scenes with her and Diamond, but Diamond decided to quit doing the show half way in, so that’s why we hardly see any of Rasheeda or else if Diamond were on the show also, we’d see A LOT more Rasheeda.
i wonder if scrappy gonna puts his paws on Soulja Boy too lol #BANKHEAD KATS DONT PLAY! lol #SOHOOD #FILA!
awww shux this should be good then
yoooo if this happens mama dee and scrappy gonna be fighting with diamond and soulja boy. Lawd, this is going to be GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
YES GAWWWWWD!! (IN MY FUNKY DIVERVA VOICE) THAT’S WHO THEY NEED TO DO THE REUNION SHOW THAT BITCH KNOWS HOW TO GET THE REAL "TEA" AND MONA SCOTT (KEEP ON PIMPING THEM)
I agree, can’t wait for that!!
I don’t think so. Sounds like a rumor. She (Diamond) said she’s not interested. And in case you guys haven’t noticed they are not forced to hang out with each other…like some other silly show we know of…lol But, Momma Dee is tre ghetto…lol She will go looking for Diamond with the camera crew…lmao. I like Kirk and Rasheeda….they are love and hip hop
Great Job on this Blog Michelle!! Very well put together. I hope things work out for Kirk and Rasheeda. I had the opportunity to talk with them. Very nice couple. 2 Chainz tweeted Monday night "Kirk is a Real Street Dude". I guess 2 Chainz wanted to help repair Kirk reputation. Great Job again!! I love the show.
Just when u thought it couldnt get any ratchet-er!!!!
Scappy could BARELY put the paws on Stevie J so he don’t need to be messing wit soulja boy! Lmao
Scrappy was fired. He was on twitter saying they gave him his walking papers cause he told joseline true sex which was breech of contract so that’s why diamond coming on now.
YES GAWD…..I can’t wait, Kirk who?
Soulja boy and Stevie crack head asses.
Moral of the story; if you’re married, stay off of reality shows.
True.These shows fracture a many of marriages, because confusion and mess just don’t mix in matrimony.
If Rasheeda is 40 years of age(and a female…they love male rappers), why is she still pursuing a career in an industry that absolutely hates black women? Most of the deals are given out by guys, who sometimes do not care for talented black female rappers.I have watched how this industry does female lyricist and I tell you it aint pretty or fair to the artist.But, I guess it’s your dream, girl.Do you!IMO…I would choose family over the career, though. This is just my thoughts on the matter, because I’ve seen some of those "where are they now?"/Unsung episodes.
Diamond was just on Power 105.1 (NY) saying she does not have intrest in being on that show. She said they cast the net to all of "whose who" of ATL to get people to be on the show. I highly doubt she nor Soulja Boy will be on the show.
Just reading ur comment. I had just left a comment saying the same thing. Highly doubt if her joining the show is true.
Diamond is not an Atlanta "who’s who" which is why you WILL probably see her next season… #IJS
Yes, yes some more DRAMA!!! LOL…
I guess I wont be watching next season….
wonder how thats gonna play out between scrappy & soulja boy
What you say Now! (sips: Tea mmmmmm)
I visit this blog often enough to talk shat! About people who I don’t know ,never going to meet and don’t have the desire to,and who entertain me every Monday nite with their bull shat! I say: Get paid yall! Best believe Mona sitting pretty.
Now! If Michelle says change is coming. Then believe because she is normally on the money when it comes to "changes" regarding these shows in the atl. Eventually it will come out about "cast updates". If it turns out she is incorrect she will let all of us know about it.
Remember she told us about the newbies for Real Housewives.
I agree! Curtis is about a dolla.. Did you hear about him becoming a boxing promoter? He is about keeping revenue in his pocket by goig in all areas where the dolla is . You can’t hate on that.
exactly
I wish both of them will leave because if you think about it look at married couples who have beeen on reality shows and their marriage broke up(ex. jessica & nick, camen electra,should i go on) as a married women of 18yrs, your marriage to me is sacred and should not be put on t.v some aspect of it should be private, they have a very great relationship as far as I can see but to save something sacred as your marriage I think both should leave. Diamond should not do that show especially if she said GOD TOLD HER NOT TOO!!!
Wow, over 3 mil viewers. I remember many people on this board dissing the cast and show calling them nobodies before the show even aired.
yep I will be honest I was one of those people. then I caught a glimpse of the sh!t while waiting for hollywood exes to come on and there I was hooked. The blogs talked so much about the show til I had to give in. It’s scripted, it’s trash, but it’s my guilty pleasure and I make sure my kids know it aint real!!!!
And soulja boy scarey @ss wont be fighting nobody. he aint hood. please dont let him fool you. that came about AFTER the record deal not before. he was honor roll and spelling bee. I know this for a FACT!!!!
Oh, so making good grades and competing in spelling be contest makes one not Hood…. please deedee plz;
In otherwords you sayin being Hood means no Brain…. Who are you?
and they still are nobodies lol @ noodles
I personally think Diamond made a smart move by holding back. Always follow what God tells u to do! Now she’ll be truly welcomed and I for one wanna see her and Soulja added to the cast. I really wanna see Mama Dee and Scrappy’s reaction. As the Hood Turns is a good title for this mess.
This the fakest reality show ive evr seen shit seem staged to me
Staged and funny as all out, one who looks like he had a sex change, a producer who looks and acts like a rat after cheese, bad weaves, loud straight from the projects with little talent chicks, its just funny, staged and still funny as all out!
Not reality TV, just a TV sitcom with hood rats with a few coins, love it!
Kirk is wack…
I know this is off topic but did anyone else feel when Karlie was walking into the meeting with Stevie and Joseline that she looked fresh from a pumping party?
NewMeKnowYou the real question is what was that WACK shit she was trying to do on that stage for an audition? Who does that? she looked like a tamar reject. she’s cute but that’s about it. opportunistic and old. she need to come have a seat next to me and just watch the show with the rest of us.
Damn i wanted to see how this was gonna play out with scrappy a.k.a mommas left titty,and Stevie j. a.ka ghetto Romeo, ol well this show sucks monkey nutts anywa
I really like Kirk and Sheeda and what they represent. They are a very attractive and very REAL couple. I love that the show highlights one of the main issues in every marriage and that is struggle in compromise. I wish them all the best.
Diamond is really pretty. Scrappy obviously likes his women brown skinned which is rare for AA men in entertainment. I think that her and Soulja Boy will be an excellent addition to the cast. This is gonna be hilarious!
Well, Momma Dee might whoop Diamond’s ass after all. LMAO! #Southern fried hot mess
@ Clarice: If Scrappy was indeed fired, then he probably got himself fired intentionally in order to avoid paying child support. (Oldest trick in the book!)
OK!!!!! He didn’t want that coming straight off the top!! Just a sorry ninja!! And I’m sorry I don’t feel Rasheda.that marry me ish is trash!!
I saw Diamond’s interview on the Breakfast Club last week, and from the sounds of her word, SHE WILL NOT be joining the cast of LHHATL. She said they have no rights as far as editing goes so she doesn’t want to be on there when she won’t have any control, it’s not positive, nor is it gonna help her already established career.
Right…I saw that too….She said she had too much to lose to be involved in that mess…. We’ll see!
I also agree they need to fire K. Michelle he gets on my nervous.
Diamond has an "established" career? You’re joking right?
I thought this show was about hip hop artists. Why soulja boy factors into this? I wont be watching this crap
So they rid themselves of the 1 damn positive role model they have to replace it with a tattoo covered Geico! I quit!
Shut upppp so she is a man and Stevie j is gay
Why the hell should they show a black man in a positive light, that’s ridiculous bring on the coonery.
EXACTLY! Mona knows what she’s doing. It’s not the Rasheeda/Kirk show (but it should be). It’s the JOJO tranny/StebbieJ show. Kirk and Rasheeda are too good for that show.
LOL
I love every minute of this nonsense. Dear God please forgive me.
K Michelle looks like a T-rex:(
I like Kirk and Sheeda on the show. I think Sheeda was disloyal to her husband and she needs to rethink her choices as a wifee. Anytime you have a man standing by you, supporting you, uplifting you, make sure you are loyal to him. Rasheeda is blessed to have him and she needs to stop tryna climb all the way to the top and be glad she living in that fat house wearing red bottoms. Especially if being all the way at the top compromises her relationship with her spouse.
I agree with your name and words…She need to get her respect levels in check for her husband and manager!…once she start letting all these people get in her ears…that marriage is a wrap. And I don’t trust nobody with their hair combed into angel wings(that Ms Deb person)…sorry! They need to pick the co manager together…especially since they would all have to work together…she was tripping with that….But, I don’t they will end their marriage over it.
welp grabs my popcron this gone be good
man i like Diamond, cause she almost like Rasheeda she keep it real in her songs, even if ppl dont like her, but my thing is whyd she have to go to Soulja boy of all ppl, like really grl i wouldve done better staying with Scrappy cheatin ass..uggh, but best of luck in whatever she does with her career and everyone else on the show!
Now we know no one wants POSITIVE images of black men or black marriages on TV…Kirk & Rasheeda represents that…instead we’d rather continue to support the bafoonery & call men like Kirk “whack”…it is what it is..smdh

What type of changes?
Diamond and Soulja Boy have both denied this on the radio here in Atlanta but we will see….
If Soulja (wannabe) comes, I go. I do not like him or what he puts out and stands for. I will kindly watch something else and I hope all of my military girls that love this show will also find something better. He is a worthless piece of… something!
Im not surprised they are bringing in Diamond and SB….they will be RATING GRABBERS because Diamond use to date Lil Scrappy so there’s controversy there…….Lil Scrappy mom hates Diamond so there’s a fight there…..VHI JUST INCREASED THEIR VIEWERSHIP BY ANOTHER MILLION PEOPLE….At the end of the day its about the ratings and $$$$$.

Marriage is one thing and business is another in the case of , " Rasheeda and Kirk ", her money is his money anyway, however, didn’t Tina leave Ike, didn’t Smokey leave the Miracles and did not David Ruffin leave the Temptations. She is not tryiing to divore him but make their money.
Stevie J, my boy, when these broads go learn the chick you focus on is not the one, focus on ya’ll man.
Karlee you got a man, Benzino, he is smart and real or inadverdent pimp, he got his own moey.
K. Michelle drop Memphis name down there, "dickbraining".
Lil scrappy pay that support cause when a woman is , ‘through," she is through.
And it is what it is stay in your lane!
Lil Scrappy is engaged to Erica, then you hear or is you all is just slow? Ang leave Soulja boy alone, and mind your business.
