Ratchet TV RECAPS: Love & Hip-Hop Atlanta Season 2 Episode 2

15 minutes before the show starts and I'm not sure I want to keep watching. Last season I wavered because there were points when it seemed TOO scripted. I know what I DO NOT WANT TO SEE: Mimi looking stupid. Her level of stupidity is almost unbelievable. I'm hard pressed to believe it's all for the sake of good tv. Anyway, in case you're just tuning in to these posts here's how it goes: 

I watch LAHH: ATL during the first showing and share my unfiltered thoughts about the goings on of the episode. Throughout this time you are free to add comments as you see fit. I will update the post after each commercial break and add final commentary and photos. Viola! Magic. 

*Sips wine*

I'm here for the women with boyfriends and boo thangs who refuse to watch LAHH:ATL with them.  

Good thing I tuned in 2 minutes early. Caught another preview of what's to come this season. Gotta admit I'm STILL not excited. 

SHOWTIME!!! 

8:01PM Joseline starts off the episode with Stevie J in her bed. Dah well guess the love triangle still lives on. Joseline tells Stevie for the umpteenth time she wants to let their "relationship" go. Joseline says her job is to be a "bad bitch." Stevie seems to think he's some sort of "gatekeeper." 

8:04PM Erica welcomes Scrappy home. I assumed he was in jail, but she says he was out doing shows. Scrappy is rockin the finest mall kiosk jewelry and the best designer clothes a booster can remove the security tags from. Ooooooh snap! He's rockin a leather vest. Let me find out Joe Budden has an underground vest line. Wait Scrappy's government name is Darryl? But he wants us to call him Skris-nah-eee? Noted. 

8:07PM Who is this motherfu. . .beloved woman? Oh DJ Traci Steele. Never heard of her. Her claim to fame is that she dated Chris Brown's DJ 6 years ago. Is that supposed to mean something? Ok girl. I'm putting my tv on mute. I'm gonna guess this is the person who will say, "They only want you cuz you're Chris Brown's DJ." She strikes me as the type of woman who had a baby to keep a man. & failed. Miserably.

**Break**

8:16PM Mimi is in the gym punching bags with KC 2.0. Yeaaa, but she sat there and let Joseline play her to the left in her house. Joseline would proly mollywhop Mimikins. "You can't watch over a man" is perhaps the smartest thing I've ever heard KC 2.0 say. Mimi says she's not doing it anymore. I don't believe her. She's too old for this shit. Really.

8:19PM Joseline meets some kid named Dawn at Thrive in Atlanta. Somethin about them being hustlers. Chile they used to be hooking together. She tells Joseline how much she's been making. I find it disturbing that she's so "about" her money, but she doesn't know what's on the books or in her contract. "I'm just fucking him, going out to eat, having fun." Ok girl. 
8:22PM Momma Dee met up with Buckeey. Why is she here  feeding this poor girl lies behind the wheel of a Coupe de Ville? Momma Dee decided it was ok to invite Buckeey to the studio. She reminds me of one of those women from "The Wire."

**Break**

8:28PM That DJ girl is back. Her name is Traci and she keeps calling her son Baby Drew. Traci lost her mind because she thought having a baby would make him stay around. He just straight up asked her for $25k to help him open a sneaker store. She co-signed a truck that he let "groupie bitches" drive. She's so bitter. Everything for her goes back to hoes. This right here is a woman scorned. She's what I call "a stupid hoe." She's REALLY letting this man sell her pipe dreams. Amazing. 

8:31PM Scrappy visits Erica's mom. Why are there so many undone buttons on his button down shirt? Her mom wants to know some thangs. Can't blame her. 

8:33PM Joseline meets up with Stevie. She asks questions about her contract. He refuses to give her a copy of her contract. This feels like one of those deals where the artist gets a Cadillac. Stevie J is a pimp ass negro. 

**Break** 

8:39PM Mimi secured her own spot. No not with Stevie J. She got her own place for real this time. & she probably didn't even need a co-signer. I get the feeling this is a first for Mimi. I don't know about KC 2.0 as her main confidante. Her ass is so big and perky tho #norainbow LOL!

8:40PM Scrappy is in the studio. "He put them paws on em" is about to be a real life single. I can already tell it's gonna be TRASH or what would he call it? Triz-nah-ee. Momma Dee is totally in love with her son. It's disgusting. In walks Buckeey. This is pitiful. Pretty sure Momma Dee wants to dip her finger in that sugar bowl. Sittin up there lookin like Scar. 

**Break** 

8:45PM Buckeey thinks Scri-nah-eee owes her an apologiz-nah-ee. Scar leaves at the perfect time and they are alone. I guess this is Buckeey's way to get her closure. She's ugly crying on tv tho and her weave is triz-nah-ee. Shay says she deserved better because she is "a good person." That is what everyone says. It carries no weight. Who is gonna voluntarily proclaim to be a bad person? 

8:48PM Stevie goes to see old man no-neck (Benzino). What world are we living in where Benzino is the voice of reason? & he's upset Stevie changed his number? So is he one of the people riding Stevie's "bus?" Why is Stevie drinking and driving tho?

**Break** 

8:55PM Alright let's see what cliffhanger will make us want to tune in next week. Stevie comes home with flowers and a gift. He's been gone for a few days & calls it "taking care of business." Please. He's been laid up in sin with Joseline. Well this went LEFT quite quickly. I don't think I've ever seen a man use a child as a tool for control. He has real control issues. 

We get to see that Stevie won't take Mimi's leaving him sitting down. He gets man handled by security. Momma Dee and Erica will eventually try to get physical as well as Rashida and KC 2.0. I do know one thing: There are a lot of angry and bitter people on this show. 

Well there ya have it folks. Episode 2 is over. Will you be tuning in next week?

RATCHETLANTA BACK: Love & Hip-Hop ATL's Season 2 Premiere

Before we get started...I need y'all to know how EXCITED I am to return to blogging. I know it's a little much that I decided to return along with Love & Hip Hop Atlanta, but I'm not bothered by your judgment. I thought it fitting since LAHHATL helped me realize my blogging potential. 

I started a full-time job this past February so I haven't been particularly motivated to blog after writing and looking at computer screens for a living. All I got is a promise and a desire to do better. As soon as I can find a balance, I'll get back to keeping you all in the loop about the ratchet goings on in this world. 

I apologize in advance cuz I know this post shall be laced with cuss after cuss. Forgive me if you're offended. 

In case you don't know where we left off...you can read my recaps from the reunion HERE and HERE. 

8:00PM As always, we start with a recap of what happened last season. We've got Buckeey, Steebie Joseline, Mimi, Rasheeda, K. Michelle's crazy ass and the others. Don't bother telling me their names. Them shits don't matter 

Bring on the gah damn show! 

8:02PM Confession: I'm not sure what to expect. I'm just ready to get to seeing some tables shaking. Wait a minute. Why are we watching Mimi shower? Was there a question about her cleanliness? Is she combating stanky puss rumors with this shower scene? I'm asking for a friend :). 

This basic bitch (yes, I called her a bitch!) Mimi starts out saying she's cleaning house and then we cut to find out she's at Stevie J's house. OMG their daughter is adorable!!!!! Mimi's really on her bullshit again this season I see. Word on the street is Stevie has a mean stroke. Dickmatization is real outchea. 

8:05PM We cut to Erica and Scrappy's house. Erica's helping Scrappy humblebrag about his designer "swag." Why is this room looking so empty? Scrappy claims he can't wear anything twice. I've heard that he keeps the boosters paid sooooooo I'm not buying all this "swag." 

8:07PM And here we go. Joseline finally gets her air time. She's in rehearsal. Stevie says they're the hottest team in the industry. Goodness Joseline has a phatty! In case you didn't know, they hand out phatty's in Atlanta at the Waffle house. Go get you one! But get in line behind me. 

**Break**

8:15PM Buckeey gets her time to shine bright like aluminum foil. She's tryna understand how Scrappy played her to the left. Of course she's decided the best way to get answers is to confide in Momma Dee. Momma Dee is what folks in the hood would call "Green as f*ck!" Look it up on Urban Dictionary.

8:17PM It's K. Michelle's turn in the flashlight. She says her life is amazing because of her deal with Warner Brothers. Kudos to her. I'm still thinkin she's the same crazy she was last season. I just don't wanna hear her talk about how that man beat her ass. She also mentions somethin about having "fans." Not sure where that came from. 

8:20PM Erica and her mom are in a jewelry store. HOLY SHIT! They're getting her ring appraised. This is some disrespectful low down dirty kinda shut yo mouf. Wow! Just Wow! Now if he comes back & tells her it's worth $700 she gone be mad. Well it's worth $21, 200. Woop de damn doo. 
**Break**


8:26PM Somebody done gave BenNONECKZino a late night show on v-103 in Atlanta. Still no word on whether his neck is scheduled to make an appearance. Jury is still out after he simped for Karlie Redd last season. Joseline reveals she makes about "20 stacks per week doing shows." That's $20,000. I'm clearly in the wrong career field. Joseline is 26? Damn life been rough on her. I'da put her at 31. Oops. 


8:29PM K. Michelle & Erica are having dinner. Not much to discuss here except that K. Michelle wants to throw Erica an "intimate engagement party." & now we start to set up for the first fight of the season. KC 2.0 is ALWAYS looking for drama. Y'all know that. Ariane (Mimi's friend) revealed she once opened up her HOT POCKET for one of Keyshia Cole 2.0's exes and she hadn't told her. That's a violation of the G code in KC 2.0's eyes. How in the world is she still finding ways to be hurt? Girl BYE! 

8:31PM Stevie J walked up in Joseline's apartment like he owned that hoe. Nice to see that Joseline has these wall applique flowers from Ikea in her place. She's just a regular woman like you & me. In case you couldn't tell by now, these two are still smanging. Mimi must be a terrible lay. 

**Break**

8:37PM MiMi & Ariane are en route to Erica's engagement party. In the words of Katrina Laverne: "Oh is all of this over some dick?"Soooo this engagement party is a table at a lounge? I hope my friends like me enough to throw me a big hat tea. 

8:40PM MiMi explains she's living with Stevie to keep Joseline from around her daughter. Nobody is buying it, but we're not here to judge. Girl get you some gah damn sense, k? Meanwhile, Erica is tryna establish her victory with Lil Scrappy. Wonder who he's gonna put them paws on this season?

Here comes our first conflict. I hope y'all have learned to spot this kinda shit from a mile away. If you haven't, please email me because I have failed you. Ariane says she fucks with KC 2.0 & KC 2.0 says she fucks with her too. Not sure why they're yelling tho. BTW, I love Ariane. Hold up. These heffas just kissed on the lips. Wonder how much residual dic...nevermind. 

**Break**

8:45PM Is it creepy that I think Momma Dee is the kind of single muva to be in love with her son? Moving on. Momma Dee showed up to make a case against Scrappy's fiance. I know that's his moms and all, but Scrappy's mama needs help. I can understand Scrappy's mindset because I get to see how the person who raised him acts. She's certified! 

Who gives a good got damn how Buckeey feels? She needs to move on. Scrappy tells his mom to respect his decision and to try to have a relationship with Erica. That's real life right there. 

8:48PM Stevie J asks MiMi whether she's happy. Guess gettin good pipe aint good enough for her these days. She says they have been spending more time together since he kicked Joseline out. Duh! Don't yaw live together? She cannot be this damned clueless! 

8:50PM Joseline walks into Stevie's house. No knock. No doorbell. No announcement of who she is. She probably still has her house key. She says to MiMi, "I see you got on your maid outfit like you always do." Holy hell! This woman has some balls. She called Mimi "Molly the Maid" ooooohhhhh myyy gawddddd I can't hardly take it. Then, MiMi INSTRUCTS Joseline to leave. No no no that's now how it works. You don't ASK someone to leave your own house. What you won't do is pop up to my house This is how I know MiMi is a lost cause: She kicked the so-called "side-chick" out, but he left with her "him." You lost, babygirl. 15 years & you still don't have a grip. 

**Break**

8:56PM & we're reminded that Joseline's snatch is yankin. MiMi is surprised (whoo chile!) that Stevie left with Joseline. The censor person needs to be fired, by the way. Why is MiMi gettin SO AGGRESSIVE right now? Too late to be thuggin right now. Stevie leaves the room by saying "Clean my room Molly Maid." Consider me DONE!  

What did you think of this week's episode? Did I miss any major moments? Did y'all peep the previews from the episodes coming up? Will you be watching this season? I'm listening
