Waka is apparently so madly in love with the single mother (Rivera has a daughter from a previous relationship), that the two got matching ring finger tattoos to announce their engagement last May (click HERE if you missed that).
It was rumored that Waka was on the list of LHHATL candidates for season 1, but Tammy was hesitant about joining the cast, so he honored her decision not to proceed at that time.
Add the fact that Waka’s mom Deb Antney, has made several appearances on the popular hood drama, where she’s been known to give her blunt take on Rasheeda‘s rap career, and you’ve got a win/win situation for all involved!
Following suit with the standard theme of Artist, love interest, parental drama, I can only assume that Waka and Tammy’s addition to the cast will come with the added bonus of extra footage of Miss Deb’s choice curse words.
