Love & Hip Hop Exclusive: Miss Info talks to Chrissy, Emily B, Olivia and Somaya Reece about their new VH1 reality show
Posted by Miss Info under About Miss Info , Exclusives , Quotes , Relationships and Family , Videos[20] Comments
Is VH1’s “Love & Hip Hop” the new “Rapper Wives,” or is it something more?
Viewers already follow the exaggerated lives and enabled bad attitudes of the “Basketball Wives.” Then there’s Chili’s search for a man who will put up with her delusions of grandeur. And the motherlode….all the “Housewives” which Bravo has scattered around the country show that money doesn’t make you pretty on the inside….but it can buy you some puffy and weird looking lips. (see: The entire cast of “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills”)
I sat down with Chrissy, Emily B., Olivia Longott, and Somaya Reece to talk about “Love and HipHop”, the romance between Chrissy and Jim Jones, the relationship between Emily and her son’s father Fabolous, and much much more….Tomorrow….Part 2: Why couldn’t Olivia and Somaya be at the Hot97 studios at the same time? It’s a celeb drama catfight recap, LOL!
Watch a preview of the show, when Chrissy proposed to her man, Jim Jones…
After the jump

I imagine some of these women a sincerely nice women. This show unfortunately will play to a variety of stereotypes for Hip Hop and Black/Latino women. Moreover it will prove the one constant. Which is money doesn’t buy taste or class.
The women are beautiful and minus Olivia who was already an artist. I view them they way I see all the other wife shows. Which is that we wouldn’t know of them or see them were it not for their spouses/significant others. It’s glorifying in some cases the baby momma concept.
Hopefully they can turn this into something more than just Bentley’s, Boats and BS.

WELL HONESTLY I’M TUNING IN BCUZ I DIDNT GET THAT SAME “WIVES” VIBE (BUT SOMAYA GETTIN FUSSED @ IN THE BATHROOM WAS HILARIOUS TO ME. C’MON, WE’VE ALL HAD THAT RUN-IN @ THE CLUB BY THE BATHROOM LOL) BUT ITS SEEMS LIKE THESE WOMEN ALL HAVE SOMETHING GOING FOR THEMSELVES. CHRISSY SEEMS LIKE A CHIC WHO KNOWS WHEN TO SAY WHEN AND I THINK ANOTHER YR IN A MERRY-GO-ROUND RELATIONSHIP AIN’T CUTTING IT FOR HER (JIM, GET IT TOGETHER LOL)
EMILY HAS CAPTURED MY HEART! I FIND HER RELATABLE, AND I’M SURE MANY OTHER YOUNG LADIES WILL, BCUZ SHE’S IN THIS LONG TERM RELATIONSHIP BUT THE GUY DOESN’T WANNA COMMIT 100%. DEFINITELY RELEVANT, ESPECIALLY IF SHE HAS TO MAKE THAT “GROWN WOMAN” DECISION AT THE END OF THE SEASON…
OLIVIA: BUMP HER TRYING TO REVIVE HER SINGING CARREER. SHE’S FUNNY AS HELL! I CAN WATCH HER JOKE AND CLOWN ALL DAY. SEEMS LIKE A CHIC I’D HANG WITH. I LIKE HER.
SOMAYA: I DIG THIS CHIC, BUT HER “I THINK HE WAS LOOKIN AT MY BOOTY” COMMENT WAS LIKE OH GIRL PLZ! OR MAYBE I’M JUST A FAN OF CHRISSY’S LOL EITHER WAY, I’M NOT FOOLED. SOMAYA THE’S ISH STARTER LOL 😉 BUT SHE’S COOL
I LIKE THIS SHOW… AND BUMP MASHONDA BEING ON TV. WHERE’S THE DAMN TELL ALL? LOL 😉

somaya is better than drake or jcole which is not hard to do. They are so overated so I guess she would be underated? I have never heard of jcole but i have seen one of his lame lyrics…laughs. But like jcole said light future is bright. Well until that happens whitemeat (eminmenm), darkmeat (jayz,tupac,biggie,fab,snoop,etc) and spicymeat (pitbull, daddyyankee etc) has and is the current! Joe budden, dungberg (sp?) are some of the worst rappers in history and they are always angry all the time and i know why because if they were given away a remix that they could must up to be even lucky to get a chance to even make to give away for free so that people can throw it away in the garbage (since they cant sell a single). They have so much class since to make up for those none hits! They obviously get that from their unclassy sick petty oversexed mothers and ignorant animalistic fathers. Somaya is better than those though every rapper pretty much is which is not hard to do and she is just as good a pop weinnies jcole and drake.
