#RADIO SILENZ SERIES#
On February 6, 2012, during the finale of Love & Hip Hop 's second season, series creator Mona Scott-Young officially announced that the show, then titled Love & Hip Hop: Hotlanta, was in production. Rici, known as Yung Joc's assistant and former mistress, and Waka Flocka Flame's mom and manager Deb Antney reportedly joining the cast. The casting of Rici, who was planned to be the " Yandy" of the group, was controversial as she had a long criminal history having been arrested for theft, assault and resisting arrest, amongst other things. Rici backed out of the show days before filming, after discovering producers had planned to air a storyline involving her, Yung Joc and his wife. By March, the cast was finalised and filming began. A few weeks into filming, Diamond broke her contract and officially quit the show, telling producers that she had "spoken to God" and he told her "it was the best thing to do". On May 15, 2012, VH1 announced Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta would make its series premiere on June 18, 2012.
