On the season finale of “Love And Hip Hop Atlanta,” the cast is beginning to wrap up their time in The Bahamas. Bambi finally hears back from Erica Mena about the monkey comment. Mena says she blacked out because her son was brought up. 

Spice and Bambi still have tension over the situation to the point that Sierra feels the need to intervene. Bambi makes it clear that she believes Spice is taking her anger out on her. Spice eventually realizes there’s truth to this. And she didn’t consider showing Bambi a little more grace since she’s going through a stressful divorce. So she and Bambi make peace. But one person Spice is not able to move forward with is Karlie. She tries to run up on her when she finds out what Karlie has been doing with her house as of late. 

Plus, Mena strikes out with the others when her conversation with Yandy goes left. 

Here’s a recap for, “Bahamian Rhapsody.”

  1. I’m really tired of Spice! Yes, I do believe that Erica was totally wrong for the disrespectful name calling but that’s who she is and she’s been that way since she’s been on the show. You hit her below the belt and she lost full control.

    I have a problem when people think it’s okay for them to say hurtful things to you but you have to dissect and think about what words you can say in return. In the real world, that doesn’t happen.

    I think Spice and Erica should have been fired. Spice has been very disrespectful and now she’s using this situation to make her look like she’s a bigger person. No, you’re not! You were wrong with Erica, you were wrong with Bambi and you were wrong with Carli.

    I do believe that Erica had not felt the effects of her words at the time that Yandi spoke with her. Yandi, I believe is one of the executive producers. So, you’ve had some time to cool down and become humble and remorseful. That’s why Erica is where she is now.

    Lessons should be learned across the board. Reality TV should leave children and racism out of the mouths of all individuals.

    It’s a sad show and it needs to go back to the basics. Where is Rich Dollars, Chrissy and Jim (Oh, that’s NY, right?). Yandi, you’ve got to do better with a casting update.

    1. This show is horrible now. Get it together Black people. You can’t just blame Erica. Let someone talk about your child and see what you do.

    2. Yes , Spice hit below the belt but that still does NOT justify saying anything racist. Erica could have called Spice every name imaginable but she chose to go after color. As far as that “blacking out” that is a bunch of crap… Erica has used that same racist term against another castmate in NYC and went as far as to call some other people of color “black monkeys” so lets not sugar coat it. It is sad that unfortunately she lost her job, but it is also a learning lesson… watch what you say when the cameras are rolling !

  2. I’M NOT TAKING SIDES HOWEVER SPICE SHOULD NEVER HAVE BROUGHT UP ERICA’S SON. PEOPLE LOSE CONTROL BEHIND THINGS LIKE THAT. THIS INCIDENT MAY BE DIFFERENT BUT SOMETIMES WHEN PEOPLE BECOME THAT ANGRY THEY LET PEOPLE KNOW HOW THEY REALLY FEEL ABOUT THEM. ERICA WAS WRONG AS WELL BUT IT SEEMS LIKE EVERYONE HAS TURNED ON HER AND ARE NOT HOLDING SPICE ACCOUNTABLE FOR WHAT SHE SAID. IN MY OPINION THE BOTH OF THEM SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM THE SHOW. 🙏💜

  3. Racist Latina love to sleep with Black Men but call Black Women Monkey.

    Unfortunately SOME Black Women seek validation and don’t mind being considered Monkeys. Meanwhile the rest of us are not defending Erica because we have dignity…..Erica can fend for herself

  4. Spice needs to sit down somewhere because what Karlie did wasn’t that SERIOUS! why is there still discussion about racial slurs when correct actions were taken now let’s move on

    1. Yes i feel it was so disrespectful on Erica saying that to Spice But I also think that Spice get out hand too I feel that none of these young women they argue to much they need to inspire someone I think they to cancel must of them out

  5. The only people that say racial slurs are racists, you say what you mean and mean what you say. Blaming it on a “black out” is a straight up cop out ! Many have had heated arguments and you say what you feel will hurt the most…. . race is what Erica chose to go after. People of color have to endure racist remarks and the bull s#$% excuses that come after it is said, when does it stop? What is really funny we are called monkeys but our walk, talk, mannerism, and style is copied more than any other.

  6. Ever since Spice had her near death experience she has become very angry and confrontational. I feel really bad for Karlie. From what I have viewed, Karlie wanted to be her friend and had so much love for Spice. To watch her be so mean and evil towards Karlie is heartbreaking. Spice may have her reasons, but going after Karlie like a tasmanian devil is not the way. She needs to take a deep breath and sit down and talk to Karlie like a civilized grown woman would.
