‘He Did Some F–k S–t’: ‘LHHATL’ Fans Scold Yung Joc After His Girlfriend Kendra Gets in Heated Altercation With Karlie Redd

This week’s episode of “Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta” brought on all the messiness viewers craved.

The tension between reality TV veteran Karlie Redd and Yung Joc‘s girlfriend Kendra Robinson finally came to a head. During episode 4 last week, Redd revealed to Robinson that her boyfriend, rapper Yung Joc, who’s Redd’s ex-flame, “tried” to have sexual relations with her in a hotel room while he was in a relationship with Robinson.

By this week’s episode 5, when the Atlanta attorney confronted Joc about his ex-girlfriend’s cheating allegations he denied them, claiming Redd was “miserable as f–k!” and lying. Robinson believed her man and apparently had a bone to pick with Redd.

Their co-star Rasheeda Frost tried to bury the hatchet between Joc, Robinson and Redd, but before she and the cast knew it things had spun out of control. Without directly addressing Redd, although he clearly was talking about her, he said out loud, “I’m not gonna play no childish games with nobody in this room.”

Before he could finish, Robinson added, “Especially not me.”

Redd shot back at Robinson, telling her to, “Jump up” which led to security pulling Redd outside and Joc holding Robinson back from almost throwing hands with the supposed 45-year-old. The confrontation ended with Redd hitting the lawyer with her heel and Joc calming his girlfriend down.

However, “LHHATL” viewers blamed Yung Joc for the ladies’ heated verbal altercation, claiming he previously admitted to sleeping around with both women at the same time, causing tension between them.

“I blame Joc! He should’ve been real with Kendra and Karlie both he’s causing the drama between them 🙄.”

“Everybody mad at Karlie but I’m blaming Joc. He did some f–k s–t which he admitted to and now he mad becuz his girl feellings hurt?! Nigga you did it! He admitted to the guys that he overlapped. Karlie is messy but she tells the godddamn truth 🤷🏾‍!”

“The whole joc n kendra is messy because of joc. He didn’t completely own up to his shi with Kendra or karlie. So it makes karlie look bad when all she wanted was to put all bull on table so everything could be cool. To be honest joc should be better to karlie because they are actually friends.”

Other folks on the other hand blamed Redd.

“Karlie mad because at the time her relationship was on the rocks and sinking. She was jealous in the moment. Sad she to old 🙄.”

“Karlie was wrong af! She always messy and starting some s–t!”

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. 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, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up 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.
