'Love & Hip Hop' news: Ray J quits and Stevie J works things out with Mimi

The "Love & Hip Hop" franchise doesn't fail to disappoint fans in the number of fights, heated arguments and physical altercations the cast members engage in. Sometimes, fisting and hitting fellow cast mates goes too far and leads to grave consequences.

Ray J has reportedly quit "Love & Hip Hop Hollywood" because he blames his struggling relationship with Princess Love on the show, according to Daily News. Love was arrested in February for domestic abuse after she allegedly beat up the producer. The 34-year-old artist reportedly told the show's creators that he wanted to shoot positive scenes, but when they refused he stepped down from the show. It is no secret that the series thrives on violence, whether verbal or physical, in order to increase viewer ratings. Producers are reportedly in panic mode and are seeking to coax the "Sexy Can I" singer to change his mind.

Meanwhile, TMZ reports that Nikki and Marcelle Mudarris have denied the fact that they put billboards of Masika Tucker on the Sunset Strip, even though viewers know they hate her. The billboard features a decade old DUI mugshot picture of the singer and calls her a whore. The owner of Ace of Diamonds is suing the duo.

Mimi and Nikko's relationship seems to be precarious as a new season four trailer of "Love & Hip Hop Atlanta" shows some iciness between the couple. Fans may recall that season three centred on Mimi's sex tape, with many viewers believing Nikko was responsible for circulating the tape. Stevie J is also undergoing a major change. In the video he is seen setting aside his differences with Mimi for the sake of their daughter and defends his ex-girlfriend.

While one hip hop couple behaves cordially, another not so much. Mstars News reports that Amina Buddafly is divorcing her estranged husband Peter Gunz and taking her career seriously. She is now working alongside her old manager and ex-boyfriend Orrin, who has already signed her on to make music with Clive Davis, Russell Simmons and L.A. Reid. Orrin and Amina, despite being former lovers, have worked together professionally following their separation so Amina is confident they can do the same now.
