Teairra and Nikki meet up with Nas, who they know from the modeling scene and who is going to work with them on an event, when Nas drops the bomb on them that she’s Soulja’s girl.

Love and Hip Hop: Hollywood showcases all the glitz and glamour of the Hollywood hip-hop music scene. A household name by way of his R&B music, TV shows and an infamous sex tape with Kim Kardashian, Ray J has re-invented himself as a heavy-hitting entertainment mogul. Teairra Mari has her own struggles, as she can’t seem to shake the lingering pain from her now-defunct relationship with Ray J. Teairra leans on her friend, upcoming rapper and former publicist, Hazel E for guidance, but Hazel has her own love issues with hitmaker Yung Berg, who feels Hazel should either step in line with his other love interests or just step aside. Masika Kalysha, a video vixen who has starred in more than 80 music videos, comes into the crosshairs of strip-club heiress Nikki “Baby” Mudarris, when the two compete for the attention of Jamal “Mally Mal” Rashid, a music producer and multi-millionaire with an affinity for the extravagant life. Multi-platinum rap star, Soulja Boy, joins the hot young cast as he endeavors to do right by his on-again, off-again girlfriend Nia Riley, daughter of super producer Teddy Riley. Omarion and Lil Fizz from the R&B group B2K are older now and dealing with grown-up issues like pregnancies and baby mama drama.

Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood season 2, episode 2 airs Sept. 14 at 8 p.m. EST on VH1.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
