The Tiny and Toya Show

So, TI’s “wife”, Tiny and Lil Wayne’s ex wife, Antonia ‘Toya’ Johnson-Carter, have joined forces on BET’s new reality show, “The Tiny and Toya Show.” These two have decided to show the world what its like to be involved with two of Hip Hop’s greatest rappers while battling with their own lives as individuals.

Watching the show just reminds me of a hip hop version of “The real housewives of Atlanta” but on a more personal level because it is only the two women. Appearing very cool and down to earth, Tiny and Toya are struggling to find inner peace with themselves as they battle issues, such as a father who has Alzheimer’s and a mother who is on drugs. The women come together as friends and confidants to give each other advice and to be that shoulder when times get hard. A friendship that seems genuine, these two Hip Hop wives shows us that they are more than trophy wives/baby mamas, but that they are individuals who struggles just like us and who just wants to be happy, something that money cannot always buy and keep.
