'Love & Hip Hop' New York Season 4, Episode 1 [RECAP]

“Love & Hip Hop” NY returned last night with a few new players and a couple of old ones. As expected, K. Michelle made her big move from the ATL to New York; Joe Budden and Tahiry rekindled their love; Yandy’s fiance, Mendecees, was still in federal custody; Erica Mena revealed that she is batting for the “other team;” and last but not least, we were introduced to Peter Gunz, his girlfriend and his artist turned mistress turned wife?

Gunz sounds like Stevie J number two if you ask me! Find out what happened below.

Joe & Tahiry: On Or Off?

When we last left Joe and Tahiry, it was unclear where their relationship stood. But now it seems as if they’ve finally gotten back on track and made their relationship official again. It looks like things might actually be different this time! Joe made it clear to Tahiry that he wanted to have babies, but Tahiry demanded a ring first. Plus, the couple was holding off on having sex until they got their STD test results back–after all they had been apart for a number of years. So far, things seemed to be working out great with this pair; they were even going to couples counseling to work on some of their underlying issues like communication.

Things got even better when they decided to share the results of their STD tests and both came back 100% clean.  Joe took Tahiry to a romantic restaurant to celebrate the results and to also get her in the mood for a long night ahead. Gotta love a couple that celebrates a clean bill of health and then gets straight down to business!

Yandy Holds It Down

On the other side of the city, while Mendeeces remained in custody, Yandy was at home tending to their son Amir, as well as as Mendeecees Jr., his son from a previously relationship. Yandy decided that she would take on the responsibility of keeping Mendeeces Jr. a few days out the week, to keep things normal. Though Yandy and Mendeecees decided to tell their sons that their father was away in the army instead of jail, seven-year-old Mendeecees Jr. was too smart for the okie-doke. He already knew that his father was away in jail and had been keeping that secret in for months!

Introducing Peter Gunz…

Last night we were introduced to Peter Gunz and his girlfriend, Tara. The couple had been together for 13 years and already had two children together. It seemed as if their family dynamic was working great and they looked like they were head over heels in love with one another…who knew there was a situation waiting in the wings!

We find out that Peter was venturing in into the management business and his first artist, Amina Butterfly, was performing at Rich Dollaz and Yandy’s showcase. He invited his girl, Tara, to accompany him at the event and meet Amina face to face for the first time.

Amina pulled off a great performance (depending on who you ask) and Yandy and Rich were utterly impressed. Tara stood by her man like a proud girlfriend and even gave Amina a big hug after the show, congratulating her on a great performance. Everything looked quite normal, but little did we all know that we were watching another Stevie J right in front of our eyes!

Later on in the studio, the real nature of Peter and Amina’s relationship was revealed. Peter explained that Tara was his soulmate but he connected with Amina on a musical level. Hm.. where have we heard THAT one before? He explained that he was genuinely in love with both women and that his heart was completely torn.

Now, for the kicker: Amina explained that her and Peter had been together for about a year now and she was waiting patiently for Peter to break things off with Tara so they could officially be a couple without sneaking around.

Little did we know that SHE was Peter’s wife, and his real wife. She lifted up her shirt to reveal her tattoo: Mrs. Pankey signifying that the two were actually already married. So, who was the real sidechick and who was the real wife? Anybody else confused?

Need any more reason why this season is going to be epic?
