Rich Dollaz is infamous for blurring the lines of business and pleasure, and now he has found his way in between two new female artists. Will he be able to overcome his temptation, stick to business and make them stars?

Old habits die hard and the right moves are crucial for the continual climb for success. It takes heart and tears to survive in the streets of New York and this cast is holding nothing back. Watch it unfold with the season premiere of Love & Hip Hop: New York on Monday, December 15 at 8pm ET/PT.

Oh my, once again they axed the whole cast!! I wished they kept the season 2 girls, they actually brought out a good storyline. 

I hope the ATL cast doesn't receives the same fate. Even though it's quite obvious that they're not, but still i wonder if the girls will want to film with QUEEN Joseline.

I think they actually did good with the cast. They kept Yandy, Erica Mena, Amina, and Tara.

1. K.Michelle now has her own show so she's no longer needed.

2. Tahiry is no longer interested in getting back with Joe so her storyline is done.

3. Erica Jean was uninteresting to begin with along with Saigon. 

I think with the Atlanta cast it might be time to get rid of Erica Dixon and Karlie Redd.

Actually I really like Amina and Tara, but I'm on the fence about Erica Mena. Her storyline with Cyn is nowhere from being believable. I really wished they kept Kimbella cause each time Erica saw her, it was on! 

Yessss!! Erica needs to GO! She has absolutely no story line and no more friends on there, besides Bambi already took her spot. 

Karlie Red might get dropped now that Benzino has been cast off, she also has no storyline. 

I wonder who is going to replace Althea though, she really brought majority of the drama last season and alot of people really want to see the aftermath from the reunion.

I wish they would have kept Kimbella too because she actually had a genuine relationship with Yandy which is what I like to see on these shows. I think Erica Mena deserves her spot on the show though because she is still interesting without Cyn or Rich. 

Even though part of me thinks Erica Dixon and Karlie Redd should go I do like that LHHATL cast as a whole is like one big family and their ratings aren't declining so it should probably stay the same.

This one is awful. "I'm white, I'll get it done" I forgot who the name of the lady that said that but I xcringed and wanted to smack the *****.

Seems ratchet enough , I used to have a crush on Chinx Santana back in the day when Murda lnc was hot lol 

I also wish the kept Kimbella , Tahiry and Joe , I live for the messiness that Erica produces but Peter Gun' s messiness is quite sad at times

As for Atlanta , According to rumors Everyone besides Mimi , Joseline , Stevie J , Scrappy , Tammy , Wacka , Momma Dee and Bambi is out. Allegedly two of the replacements are Nivea (Lil'Wayne and The-Dream baby Mama)and the other is Reema Major (Waka Flocka female rapper) aka the new K.Michelle and Rasheeda.

That's not true because if you look at Rasheeda's instagram she just started filming.

I'm talking about the main cast , Rasheeda may have bumped down to recurring.

I doubt Rasheeda is bumped down to recurring when she is one of the fan favorites and acts as the Yandy(messy messenger) of the show.

I agree. She is a fan favorite. Would be surpised to see she's reoccuring 

I find her storyline boring though since her and kirk's marriage works now lol. It was better when they were on the verge of splitting. The running over of his bike by her mother is everything..

It is boring but all of them are...

1. Mimi, Joseline, and Stevie aren't interesting since they are no longer in a love triangle plus it won't be entertainiing since Althea and Benzino were fired which means Joseline and Stevie can't feud with them.

2. Erica Dixon has no storyline since she isn't trying to get back with Scrappy.

3. Karlie Redd has no storyline since she isn't with Benzino or Yung Joc.

4. Lil Scrappy and Bambi won't be entertaining unless they have another love triangle.

5. Tammy was cool but her and Flocka's storyline was boring.

I  think the LHHATL cast is so entertaining that we don't watch for the storyline just to see what they are up to which is why I doubt there will be big changes with the cast.

Is it true that Miami will be the next in the series?!!!! 

No. Miami was originally going to be the first spinoff before they decided to go with Atlanta. They wanted the rapper Trina on there and Erica Mena was going to also be apart of it. Trina decided she didn't want to do it so they just kept Erica Mena in New York and crossed it off the list. They also considered Houston and New Orleans before making Hollywood the second the spinoff.

 

Which is why the have worked new characters into the show . Nivea (The New K. Michelle ) cause she is a hot *** mess and Reema Major , who is signed to Waka label so maybe a Tammy/Reema feud

Rasheeda may still be there but Karlie/Erica are gone and I belive Scrappy is still dealing with Erica P.

I wouldn't confirm Nivea just yet. She was originally suppose to do the first season but declined. She has kids by Lil Wayne and The Dream so she isn't struggling financially which is why most people do the show. If she does sign on I'm curious to know if her and Rasheeda are still friends.

Here is the supertrailer:

New Chrissy went up to Erica Mena like an EXECUTIVE BOSS and scalp her to pieces. I really hope they really milk their feud like Masika and Nikki cause she's officially my new favorite cast member. 

At first I thought she was lying about knowing Erica but Erica went on a radio station and said she didn't hang with Chrissy and she's just a friend of a friend. Well Chrissy posted these photos on instagram.
