Last night was the next to the last episode of Love & Hip Hop. I don’t know about you, but I feel as if this season has flown by in a relatively boring string of similar-minded cat fights. Erica Mena and Kimbella Vanderhee are at each others’ throats yet again, Yandy Smith is desperate to find someone who finds her to be a totally innocent party in her smack down with Chrissy Lampkin and unprofessional e-mail to Jim Jones, and Olivia Longett keeps singing away. Emily Bustamante is still pining for Fab and Somaya Reece makes a rare appearance.
Olivia and Emily are discussing the fight between Yandy and Chrissy. Emily has Chrissy’s back while Olivia feels she stuck between two friends. Yandy joins the pair and Emily smugly sizes up Yandy. Yandy hopes that Emily will help show Chrissy her side of things, but no dice. Emily will leave that job for Olivia.

Erica is being interviewed by Vibe.com and one of the first questions has to do with Kimbella. Erica comes out guns blazing, basically calling Kimbella a porn star who has slept her way to where she is now. Klassy! Erica doesn’t sound the least bit jealous of her video vixen counterpart with a slew of insults.
Yandy goes to see her mentor Mona Scott-Young. Mona tries to convince Yandy that Jim is never going to choose her side over his fiancé. Mona thinks Yandy is taking this whole situation too personally as it’s her job to manage Jim and if she wants to quit, she can. However, after hearing rumors about Yandy’s e-mail to Jim, Mona is concerned that Yandy may have tainted her reputation for future clients. Regardless of Mona’s advice, Yandy believes she did nothing wrong in expecting some sort of loyalty from Jim.
Rick and Olivia are discussing a potential million dollar deal for three albums. Rich is giving her the pros and cons. It’s not the money that Olivia was hoping for, and while Rich thinks the decision is purely Olivia’s, he doesn’t think she’s in a position to be picky with her career. Olivia meets Chrissy and Emily for lunch and Chrissy thinks that the fact Olivia won’t choose sides makes her pretty wishy-washy. Emily takes the opportunity to throw Olivia under the bus with Chrissy, telling Chrissy that Olivia called Yandy “the bigger person” during their prior meeting. Emily point blank asks Olivia who she believes is at fault between the ladies. Olivia thinks both women have acted poorly and Chrissy informs her that she doesn’t need any disloyal friends.
Yandy meets with Cam’ron in hopes of getting in some of his business. Yandy reveals that she’s left her position as Jim’s manager and she wants to work with Cam’ron. He tells her that when he and Jim had a falling out, things eventually worked themselves out — and he thinks the same will ring true with Jim and Yandy. That said, Cam’ron doesn’t want to ruffle his friend’s feathers so he’s going to have to run by Jim the idea of working with Yandy. Yandy understands and both hope that Jim won’t have an issue with their partnership.
Kimbella and her brother Kenneth meet for drinks to discuss her conversation with their mother in Miami. She confides in her brother that she doesn’t want to go in the same direction as her mom. While she love Juelz, and she would love to get married, she thinks they don’t need to tie the knot just because she has kids. Kimbella wants to make it work with him and her brother wishes her luck, but wants to insure that if things aren’t good between the pair his sister won’t stay in the relationship.
Yandy and Olivia meet again to discuss Chrissy-gate. Poor Olivia. She is correct in her assumption that both Chrissy and Olivia seem to have a lot in common, although neither one will see it. Yandy doesn’t want Olivia to choose sides, but she does want her friend to stand up for her to Chrissy. Um, how does that work? Olivia gently explains that Yandy’s e-mail to Jim was inappropriate and although it’s the second time she’s heard it, Yandy still doesn’t agree.
Yandy keeps searching for someone who thinks she wasn’t at all in the wrong. What’s a gal to do? She gets a massage with Jim’s mom, Mama Jones. Nancy isn’t willing to tell Yandy what she wants to hear because she also believes that Yandy overstepped professional boundaries with the e-mail. Yandy can’t understand why people don’t get that she was Jim’s friend in addition to his manager, but she is very happy her relationship with Mama Jones has been relatively unaffected. In fact, she’s going to start managing Nancy’s career. All the family!
Wait! Who is that I see joining up with Kimbella at the chocolate shop? No. It can’t be. But it is! Long lost Somaya! They dish about Erica’s Vibe interview. Somaya makes a good point — Erica claims she couldn’t care less about Kimbella, but she certainly devotes a lot of time to trash talking her. Somaya is probably thrilled to have become a supporting player on this madness.
Fab’s former assistant Winter comes by Emily’s new place. Winter calls Emily out on moving out just to get a reaction from Fab, but she truly thinks that Fab will come around if Emily is patient. While Emily respects Winter’s opinion, she wants more. Winter reminds Emily that these “indiscretions” are part of the lifestyle and she’s known that for years. Emily isn’t willing to play second fiddle to anyone; she doesn’t think that someone’s fame should give them a free pass for bad behavior. Amen!
Erica is out celebrating her birthday, which seems to consist of her playing with her tatas in party goers’ faces. Yeah, she’s way classier than Kimbella. Speaking of, Kimbella heads to the party (wearing a God awful catsuit) fully intending to confront the two-faced Erica. Kimbella pulls her aside questioning why Erica pretended to be her friend and then gave such a scathing interview. She is trying to convince Erica that the rumors she’s heard about her aren’t true. I doubt Erica cares. Somaya joins in the tag team and Erica continues to act like a twelve-year-old… not that anyone is showing much maturity. Erica attempts a punch and then throws a drink. She’s pretty safe behind her wall of party attendees. Somaya and Kimbella storm out of the party so that the breast fondling festivities can resume.
Next week, Juelz gets arrested and his bail is close to $50,000. Rich and Olivia work on her career, while Mama Jones, Jim and Chrissy head to Jamaica.
WHAT DID YOU THINK OF LAST NIGHT’S EPISODE? ARE ERICA’S DIGS AT KIMBELLA AN ATTEMPT TO BECOME RELEVANT IN THE INDUSTRY. WHOSE SIDE SHOULD OLIVIA TAKE BETWEEN CHRISSY AND YANDY? THOUGHTS ON EMILY AND FAB’S POTENTIAL RECONCILIATION?








Pink Kitty
Wow you just spoke the truth.
Yandy, I am/was on your side, but the letter was over the top and a little messy. I understand you were hurt by your ‘family’ but you let it get the best of you. Keep doing you Boo!
Olivia, you were right to stay out of the middle between the two ladies. You were right that they alike in there determination, but I believe that you showed a lack of courage when you didn’t tell Chrissy that no matter what, her behavior is deplorable. Chrissy wants total devotion and she has it with Emily. She clowned you before and now put you under the bully bus named Chrissy.
Emily, you’re weak in all of your relationships.There has to be something that will help you with you self esteem.
Kim and the other girl…Baby mamas should unite..Both of you should get a clue.
Chrissy, there are so many things but I really don’t care anymore. Get some anger management!
Emily she needs too focus on her young chidren then a man , and she seems slow.
Yandy needs to stop it. I’m starting to see her in a different light with all of the details of that e-mail surfacing. She showed her true colors when she ran to Cam’Ron. Both Cam and Mona were right in their responses to her. She needs a big lesson in separating business from personal…not to mention every dude ain’t your “brother”. That’s cool as a young girl in the streets but not in the business world. SMH
Everyone thinks Chrissy is crazy because her actions are brash, but when the truth comes out she never looks like a fool. You may disagree with her actions, but her motives are usually on point.
Olivia…beautiful voice. It’s time to suck up your pride and take the deal that you can get. It’s called getting your foot in the door so that you can write your own ticket.
Kimbella v. Erica…they are the same damn person and they need to stop the madness. I don’t know how Erica has gone from being some obscure rap crew’s weed carrier’s BM / Kardashian employee to the persona she has created but it’s very laughable. Kimbella shouldn’t feed so much into what Erica is saying about her but I guess it’s needed for the storyline. They’re both trying to stay relevant.
Winter sounded very ignorant for giving Emily that advice and I commend Em for actually having sense enough to say that she wasn’t going to accept it. She was right to move out and she deserves better. No man has the right to treat a woman that way, regardless of his status or success. Now, if she could only get over him for good…
P.S. I just found this site today and I LOVE it!!! So addicted!
Yes she LOOKs very much like a fool fighting with those young people ,OLDER women .
@ Babydoll, no matter whether Chrissy is right or wrong, it is her actions that I think most would view as appalling.There is no excuse for her actions, not matter how mad, how right or how wrong…how can she justify violence. “Use your words Chrissy”
@BABYDOLL. I’M WITH YOU ON EVERYTHING. I FINALLY FOUND SOMEONE WHO ACTUALLY VIEW THIS SHOW THE WAY I DO. CHRISSY IS MY GIRL. JUST COME CORRECT WITH HER AND EVERYTHING WILL BE ALL GOOD. EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW THAT THE WOMAN IS THE BACK BONE TO THE FAMILY, IT TAKES A STRONG WOMAN TO HOLD A FAMILY TOGETHER, AND JIM KNOWS IT. ONLY A WEAK MAN WOULD WANT A WEAK WOMAN. I LIKE YANDY, BUT NOW SHE’S MAKING ME SECOND GUESS THAT DECISON. YANDY SHOULD KNOW THAT EVERYBODY CAN’T BE FRIENDS. AND YOU CAN’T CONSIDER EVERYONE YOUR BROTHER, I’M HOPING THAT SHE USES IT JUST AS FIGURE OF SPEECH. OLIVIA IS PLAYING BOTH SIDES OF THE FENCE. SHE’S NEXT, SHE’S ALREADY BEEN WORNED. SO I’M JUST GOING TO LET THIS PLAY ITSELF OUT. I COULDN’T BELIEVE WHAT WINTER WAS ACTUALLY SAYING TO EMILY. THAT CRAP WAS LIKE WHAT MY NIECES MOTHER-N-LAW SAID TO HER ONE DAY. SHE SAID ME AND ALVIN WENT THROUGH THE SAME THING, HE USE TO FIGHT ME, YEARS AGO AND NOW HE DON’T NO MORE. JUST STICK IN THERE, YOU’LL SEE, MY SON WILL CHANGE, WATCH WHAT I SAY. THE MORE YEARS WENT PAST THE MORE FIGHTS THEY HAD AND SOMETIMES STILL DO. WHICH GOES TO SAY, THEY MAY CHANGE, BUT WHY STICK AROUND TO SEE. ACTIONS SPEAKS LOUDER THAN WORDS. IJS
Chrissy presents herself as raw, cold-hearted, and self pleasing. She always displays her low confidence and low self esteem by fighting and turning against every beautiful female.
She has a pitbull personality. She is not a friend to herself and she is not a friend to anybody else. If Emily ever disagree with Chrissy for any reason, she will turn on Emily too.
team yandi n also i think erica is a coke head she needs rehab and chrissy u r a big bully u got the ring now act like a wifey instead of some gang banger
When I saw the out take of Chrissy saying that this was her show and that yandy needs to bow down, I was like naw, I cant stick with you on that chrissy. Also what is with chrissy and jim asking yandy to quit the show. Yandy is making thousands per episode! Really? YOU quit the show!! How you gon tell a business woman who makes a living doing business and does it well, to quit the show, cus she is out shining the rappers girl. f—-! that!!! excuse me, but really? Yandy was not trying to run anything. Chrissy is a bright girl she dont need to be in fear of no woman on the show regardless of their talent, out shining her. Do you chrissy and stop depending on others to make your money. Chrissy has been my favorite, then I like yandy also, but you should not be in competition with someone who is already in the industry. Yandy is worth 15 million and she is on her job and you just stopped that talent from coming to your household cus she help Jim make money. Talking about dropping the hand that was feeding. Jim got talent, but is he selling records like that? I wish I knew of someone that made 15 million, the last thing I would be doing is beefing with that person, or ending a business relationship with that person. Forget a email about items that was bought! to me that sounded like business cus jim probably gave yandy money to buy things for chrissy or whatever he was trying to set up like the romantic dinner scene on the show. Yandy set that up for him. Yandy was Jims manager and took care of alot of things for Jim financially with his money but she helped him get that money and he gon let his family get in between him making millions come on! Yandy keep it moving and dont look back. I felt bad that you and jim were not able to get it straight but Yandy there will always be other clients and other avenues to make that money and seems to me you doing just fine with 15 million. Im glad chrissy got engaged and made up with mama jones but all of yall are wrong for turning against Yandy cus thats money there. Dont sweat the small stuff. Everyone needs to get paid not just chrissy, jim, and mama. Yandy is jims manager but yandy is not stupid. You cant order a grown woman, even if she work for you not to get mo paper. Please, if someone offered me thousands an episode, and I was in that position do you think I going to say No, cus Im getting too much buzz than my clients girlfriend! please! gthfoh!!!! Money Talks! Yandy is tight with Mona who is co producing so Im sure she will continue to get paid and I know they paid her well since yandy worked with Violator. Get them checks yandy! Keep it moving and dont let nobody stop you thats the way you suppose to be. Jim would not have turn money down either. He just has to be on team chrissy but trust me he understands. When them babies start coming he really gon understand!!lol
