Love and Hip Hop New York | Season 4 | Episode 5 | Off The Record | Review | Recap | Opinion
So! At the end of this blog, their is a link to my questions that I asked Amina Buddafly on Twitter. That she answered in her weekly video! Yes, she answered 2 of my questions! Thanks Amina, you are so sweet!
But first!
The episode starts out with Tara at the gym with Yandy! And they are doing cardio kickboxing. At Fit Factory in Midtown New York. Tara states that this is Yandy's cousins Gym. We'll get back to my theory on that in a minute!
Tara tells Yandy, about the instagram video of Amina and Peter playing golf! As we know, Peter's balls have touched more than 18 holes!
Anyway, Tara insults Yandy's intelligence by stating that something told her to check Amina's instagram. Lol! Either you checked it on your own, looking for information. Or, someone, not something told you to look at this video.
Always a bitch somewhere being cheated on, talking about "women's intuition told me...". Look trick, if you have a woman's intuition, use it to prevent being cheated on. Don't let your ego fool you after the fact.
The Easter egg, or hidden gem in this scene. Is that this gym is so cheap, that they have dumbbells in milk crates! This gym must be at Yandy's cousins living room! If they don't have a weight rack to hold the equipment, and they have to stick weights in a crate, that tells you something!
While Tara claims that this work out is a stress reliever, I think that she is training to kill Peter! She wont be able to say that say that she snapped though! This will be premeditated! Next thing you know we'll see her at the shooting range too!
Ya'll viewers just don't get it! Her name is Tara, as in Tarariss! Or Terrorist! Same thing!
Anyway, Yandy states that she feels that Amina Buddafly doesn't have star quality. She doesn't walk in the room, and magnetically attract people and command the rooms attention by presence alone! This coming from the chick who signed dry ass Olivia. And miss going nowhere Loreal?
Anyway, Yandy is tired of Rich being messy! Which is funny because, I guarantee you, that Rich can make a lot more Money with Erica Mena and Amina Buddafly than Yandy ever will with Loreal and Olivia!
But forget that soon to be defunct record label! Did you see Yandy's eye lashes? Who the hell puts on drag queen eye lashes to go to the gym and work out?
Looking like a gay cow! You're lucky you're cute Yandy! Or I'd go in on you.
In the next scene, were at Ripley Grier Studio in Midtown New York.
And we meet the Heidi Fleiss of finger painting, Madam Rebecca Schweiger!
The founder of the Art Studio in New York! And she totally gives off a whorish vibe! Which is a good thing of course! I am not perfectly sure but, I think Schweiger is the German pronunciation of swagger! And Rebecca could get it! I'd rub it all over her big nose!
Anyway Rebecca lets Saigon and Erica Jean know that this painting session would help them to know each other better! And this is one of the most disturbing things that I have ever heard of in my lifetime! So, two people who have a baby together, are going to go to an art studio to learn more about each other? Yeah! OKAY!
Anyway, Saigon and Piano mouth! I mean Erica Jean are painting! I was hoping that they were going to paint Erica NUDE! Unfortunately, she sits her big ass down and starts painting too!
Saigon painted a big red heart, with a key and a white squiggle to represent Erica Jean. I was hoping that he was gonna paint that damn gap in her mouth. Seriously! That gap is so big, she can clinch her teeth together and stick her tongue out!
As for Erica's painting, she painting a big Purple heart! Saigon had a rap song called the Color Purple. So I am not sure whether or not the song influenced her cheap and uninspired painting. I hope that she is a better mother than she is a painter. She put absolute minimal effort into her art. She might has well have painted a line on the paper.
For the record, I was trying to figure out where I saw Erica Jean at before! She looked so familiar! I mean, she wears yellow, has chunky junky jewelry like scraps that you'd find at the bottom of the ocean. And she has a big greedy gap!
OOOOOOOOOOOH SHIT! Sponge Bob! I knew I saw that chick somewhere before! Baaaaa! {Sponge Bob voice}
Now we are at Stadium Red Studios in Harlem New York.
Amina is singing and playing the piano. Looking beautiful, Alicia Keys 2.0. And Peter creepy guns pops up! And Peter is trying to make sure that Amina stays in side piece wifey mode. Peter states that he is going to tell these women whatever he has to to keep both of them in his life! And I am sure that it will work out for him in the end. He'll get his way!
Peter goes on to tell Amina that he doesn't want her posting videos and pictures of them online together anymore. Because seeing this upsets Tara! He then refers to himself as being super handsome! And the hottest rapper over 40! Really Mr wrinkles? Not with that shrink wrap forehead! I'm a straight man who knows that LL Cool J, according to the women is the hottest senior citizen in rap!
Anyway, Peter is still trying to get Amina signed and, she lets him know that she just might have to seek out new management. Remember Rasheeda and Kirk from Love and Hip Hop Atlanta? Yeah! If I see Deb Atney pop up, then I'll take her seriously about that.
The highlight of this scene is Peter Gunz outfit! After Tara went psycho and murdered his wardrobe! I mean she literally put the war in wardrobe! He was left with only the clothing on his back! He came in that studio with some tight jeans and 2 size too small sneakers! He looked like he robbed an old homeless woman! And then the worst part of it all was his clearance rack Walmart sweat shirt!
Now were at the Basketball court with Peter and Rich. And Peter is crying to Rich about his stuff getting destroyed. Rich lets Peter know that marrying your artist behind your live in girlfriends back will get your possessions destroyed!
Pretty much this scene was about whether or not Amina is going to get the record deal. Rich lets Peter know that yes, he still wants to go through with it. He loves Amina's music despite him enjoying her getting her face spanked on national tv! He let's his, "friend" Peter Gunz know that he has to discuss this with Yandy first!
Now we're at, Chocolat in Harlem new york.
Nya Lee and Cyn Santana are at the bar talking.
Nya wants to know what happened to Cyn's heterosexuality. She wants to know why she's pretending to be a lesbian. Nya is obviously trying to steal Cyn from Erica. She's looking about as thirsty as Rich right now! I see where this guy Nya's hostility towards Erica comes from now.
Cyn claims that Erica is her first girl and that even though she never looked at girls like this before, she said that if she were to be with a girl. It would have to be with Erica!
And with that said, this girl is full of lies! And she gives me the psychotic, schizophrenic, Single White Female vibe! You know, like. Erica Mena better watch her back. I know I'm watching it! No but seriously. Cyn Santana looks like the type to move in with her, start dressing like her and get the same hair cut! She's creepy. But maybe it was the Kat Stacks impression that she did in 2010 that creeps me out! (That laugh had me shitting bricks.)
To make matters worst, Cyn comes up with a really crappy idea. She convinces Nya to attempt to work with Erica again! Something tells me that this wont turn out too well! Putting Erica and Nya in the same room is like having R.Kelly host Toddlers and Tiara's. We all lose!
To top it off, Cyn dares to joke about Team Lesbian doing a 3 way song together! Erica, Cyn and that dude named Nya! And Nya thinks that Cyn needs to stick to modeling. One tone deaf Latina is more than enough for Nya. But the best part of this scene is Cyn Santana's shorts!
Her ass looks depressed. I was thinking that it was the shorts making her look like a fat man from behind. But I think she is just one of the those chicks that look like mascot, with human clothing on top of the costume.
While Erica Mena is shaped like an hourglass. Cyn Satana is shaped like a shot glass! She needs to that Maurice Smith pervert workout DVD!
Tell me how this chick is like 21 years old. And she already has cellulite for days! She looks like God put her knees on backwards! I never saw a chick with knees that go out in both directions. Hammer legged bitch!
Anyway!
Now we arrive at the top of the garden in Midtown New York.
Rich is trying to convince Yandy to sign Amina Buddafly. Yandy is undermining Amina's talent, and playing it off like she wasn't just smelling the money and loving what she saw when Amina first performed for her! Yandy is so full of it nowadays!
Peter Gunz walks in with his headphones on his neck, his last worldly possession since Tara destroyed all of his things. Yandy lets Peter know hat Amina is not a good look for her business!
And, Peter feels that Yandy is not needed. And he can just do the business deal with Rich! You see, Rich owes Peter some favors. Which basically means that Peter may have killed someone for Rich.
Peter makes the a great point by stating that the issues between the women is his problem and that this is about business. So he will keep things under control for now on. Yeah, we'll see how this goes!
So, now we are at Society Billiards in Flatiron District New York.
Saigon and Peter Gunz are playing pool! And Saigon's acting abilities are at their worst in this scene! He looked and sounded a little bit off as if he may be forgetting his lines! Anyway!
He's concerned with his 2 year old son possibly being mentally challenged, possibly autistic but, he isn't a Dr. so. He did what any other young parent does nowadays. Consult the expert of all experts. AKA, the internet!
Google taught Saigon that he should be concerned because a 2 year old should know about 35 words. And his child isn't being very talkative. Peter lets him know that yeah, he needs to confront Old Navy! I mean Banana Republic, I mean the GAP! Aka Erica Jean!
Now were back at Yandy's apartment. We have a short scene where she gives her 1 year old a cupcake to celebrate his first birthday! And the cupcake looked disgusting! It was shaped like rotten Dick and it had a candle in it! Who the fuck gives their baby a cupcake with a candle in it! I'm calling Child Protective Services right now!
After serving her child a "cupcake" *coughs* that looked like a tumor.
Yandy is in a car, calling Mendecees! They are talking about cupcakes and his bail hearing. Which was pushed back! Again! Better to get news of his bail hearing being pushed back, than to get word that he got his shit pushed up in his ass in them showers! We don't need Mendecees coming out Womandecees! I know Yandy's cousin is laughing somewhere right now! Remember when her cousin took pictures of her butt when she was working out, then he uploaded it to the internet? And Mendecess attack him? He sucker choked him! Not a such Punch, but a sucker choke! Probably the first ever in reality TV. history!
Yandy let's Mendecee know that she wants to go see this Lawyer that they hired for his case, in person! Mendecee tells her to put her foot down on everybody, incuding the lawyers neck to find out when he is going to leave gay heaven! For some reason, I think that Yandy putting her foot on necks wont make a difference. Now Peters nasty foot on the other hand! That weapon would change the game!
Anyway, now we are at 4 West Diner in Englewood New Jersey with Erica and Saigon. This was best scene this whole episode! She pulls up in a 1989 Dodge Goat SUV! Not a Dodge Ram, but a Dodge Goat!
And fork mouth, I mean Erica Zipper teeth Jean, was fooled by Sneaky Saigon into thinking that they were just going to get a bite to eat! With a gap that big, she can't even take bites! Nah, but seriously, she must eat like a fucking dog! With her head all titled to the side and shit! Or at least that's how I imagine her eating!
Saigon lets Erica know that the rate at which their child is learning is a bit slower than where he thinks the baby should be at this point. And he kind of whispers to her that he is in Chucky Cheese like almost everyday! So, I guess we found out who the secret mascot is!
Anyway, Saigon is worried about Erica being a dead beat mother. And not teaching the child anything but twerking, and how she can sharpen a pencil in her mouth! Erica claims that Saigon's daughter who is 1 month apart from their son, speaks 150 words, not because of Saigon's masterful prison parenting skills. But because, the other child is a female.
Saigon is pissed! And for a moment there attempts to take the adult route and state that as a felon, he doesn't want to argue in public! Probably because he was this close, to pulling out his old prison shank on her ass! And Erica was so mad, that she grew a tooth!
Saigon claims that all the boy says is DAH DAH DAH. And for the record, this is very scary considering the fact that DAH DAH DAH is German for, "die now"! My adopted German brother said this when he stabbed me growing up! Just kidding.
Erica and her huge ass storm out of the restaurant! And Saigon chases after her!
The two are arguing outside of the restaurant now. And showing off their matching butt implants! And she called him a fake gangster.
He says her ass is fake! That she's a hood rat. And a hood booger!
He then proceeds to snatch her Louis Voltron bag! Yeah. not Louis Voitton, but some fake ass Louis Voltron bag! Anyway, he chucks her bag like a football! Thank goodness it wasn't Tiana Rodriguez's bag!
Anyway. He nearly ruined her purse contests. Which include, sunglasses, nail polish, a tampon and her Secret deodorant. Seriously though, they gotta do better than this!
Okay, so. Yandy hops on an airplane with her sons and visits the Defense Attorney Donald Thompson's office! Yandy states that her fiances case has been in limbo for 7 months! And she needs the details on when she will get some dick again!
And Donald lets Yandy know that the time that it's taking is normal during federal proceedings.
And his attorney client privilege is keeping him from giving Yandy the answers to the questions that she is seeking. And that she needs to be talking about things with Mendecess. But Mendecees has obviously been withholding information from her.
She foolishly calls Mendecees sitting in jail, "morally wrong". And refers to him as a man who was "torn from his family!" Yandy then furthers insults the lawyer by referring to the evidence that is against Mendecees as being "hearsay"!
Donald lets this idiot know that her, "hearsay" is testimonial evidence. Which is enough to support a charge
The Lawyer will continue to hold his attorney client privilege and let's stupid Yandy know that if she wants information. She better go ask Mendecees, rhymes with feces. And get the fuck out of his face! He tell Yandy that her and her man will have to wait a while because this will be a long process!
And with all of that said, Yandy better find her a new man! Just saying!
We are back in the Grimey streets of New York now!
Peter creeps on Tara on her way to work. Now I heard that she is a manager of a McDonald's or some sort of job. Yet she is wearing booty shorts! And a face full of makeup! Looking just like a street walker! And Peter's forehead is so wrinkled it looks like a brain! Tara tells Peter that divorcing Amina is up to him and that he needs to do what works best in his situation. Peter plans to keep both women in his life. And Tara is too dumb to move on so, I know that she will stick around.
Then, the discussion turns nasty, she tells peter that she needs space and pine sol!
When a woman needs space, that translates to temporary to permanent new dick!
So, Peter better enjoy sharing Tara! The best part of the scene is how the part in Tara's hair jumps from the left side of her head to the right side of her head! So, either she combs hair really fast, or the editing department should be fired! He pocket book jumps from arm to arm as well!
Now we're with Erica Mena and Cyn Santana at Harlem Underground in Harlem New York. Erica is doing like girls do, going behind their significant others back and being sneaky. Yeah, y'all new school lesbians are gonna learn what men feel like when women do their little bull shit and then sugar coat it with girl logic.
So Erica doesn't tell Cyn about the contract with Rich. And Cyn lies to Erica and tells her that Nya Lee called her. As opposed to them meeting up in person. And this sneaky shit is why so many women don't have female friends.
Anyway! Cyn tells Erica that she needs to be cool with the other musicians if she is going to be in the music industry and that she needs to work with Nya Lee! I am thinking that Nya and Cyn either may secretly have something going on, or will have something secretly going on in the future! Anyway! Cyn's mouth is so good, that Erica reluctantly agrees to talk with meeting up with Nya!
Now we are back at Yandy's and she is sitting with her dad, named Ralph, on an ugly purple couch. Ralph has tattoos and I can tell that he is a smooth talker just by the way that he is speaking to his daughter! He knows how to talk to women effectively.
Ralph lets Yandy know that basically she needs to not get her hopes up because, if Mendecee is in fact locked up for 20 years, she better think long and hard about going 2 decades without any dick!
Yandy crying to white daddy, Donald Thompson, didn't work, so now she is crying to brown daddy, Ralph, because she is now accepting the fact that Mendecees is probably not coming home anytime soon! The best part of this stupid scene is that Yandy claims that she didn't sign up to be a single mother. Well Yandy, you let a tough guy like Mendecees knock you up twice. So yes you did.
Pretty much Yandy is trying to convince her father to not go back to Florida. And instead stay up in New York and help her by being her baby sitter! He rather play Bingo and smash chicks under palm trees, so he didn't take the bait! Smart man!
In our final scene we visit. Sin City Cabaret in the Bronx New York. And no Cyn Satana with "C" does not own Sin City Cabaret!
Anyway!
Nya Lee and Erica Mena are meeting up. And before they can sit down and let the chairs settle from their big butts, Nya asked to see Erica's bag. And Nya is talking shit about Erica's bag, calling it questionable. No Nya, your gender is questionable! Nya is still pretending that Nya Lee is a somebody. Like she has a music career to speak of. And talking about how my boo Erica is irrelevant. Which is of course a lie!
Anyway, they start arguing real face, and it was the same old shit that they said before about people fucking and stripping for money. Yada Yada Yada. I don't like seeing Erica upset! The highlight of the scene is when Bootylicious Erica Mena gets up and turns around looking a million dollars! And digs in her big green purse, and throws a few bills at Nya Lee!
Being half naked with money thrown all over the floor is just a normal day for Nya! So this didn't effect her at all! I just wanna know whether or not she picked the money up off of the floor! Anyway, Erica walks out without her pocket book! Not sure of whether or not this was because she went outside to smoke, call a ride, text message someone or what! But she walked out without her pocket book!
And that was that!
