Our very own Cherry Martinez recently sat down with the latest addition to the cast of VH1′s Mob Wives, Ramona Rizzo, for Novela Wednesdays to dish on her mob lineage, prior relationship with the other ladies on the show and her latest altercation with fellow cast member, Ditra D’Avanzo. Check out some of the highlights below:

On Drita:

“We tried to go out a couple of times, we did do that. I have history in that sense, but sometimes people with their jealousy and their lies, it becomes the most dangerous thing in life, and that’s what Drita has created. She’s said so many things that are such lies and such jealousy, and her ego on television has gotten so large, that it is what it is.”

On Fighting With Drita:

“As far as fighting, I don’t need to be a man, but I will have to go that route if you’re going to raise your hands to me. But this whole persona that she’s built on TV; we live like maybe 5 minutes from each other…knock on my door, come put me in the hospital.”

Former 3LW member Adrienne Bailon recently paid a visit to our very own Cherry Martinez for #GirlPowerMondays and dished on Robert Kardashian, Love & Hip-Hop and the rumors surrounding her relationship with Fabolous. Check out some of the highlights below:

On Rumors She’s Romantically Involved With Fabolous:

“We’re over it. We’re literally like 3 years into saying that I date Fab, and me and Fab, which are the people, we’re over it.”

On Being Photographed Arriving At The Grand Re-Opening Of Jay-Z’s 40/40 Club With Fab:

“We’re friends. The same way that if you have a best friend, and you guys are both attending an event. If we’re all a crew that hangs out together, you’ll say, ‘Yo, everybody’s going at this time.’ We’ll literally be on a chat together, all of us on a BBM chat. That’s like oh, we’re all going at this time, dope. You’ll pull up at this time, great. We’ll all walk in together. That’s not abnormal.”

In part 2 of our very own Cherry Martinez’s exclusive interview with Charli Baltimore, the Philadelphia native dishes on what she thinks went wrong with Murder Inc. and its CEO, Irv Gotti, how she parted ways with the label, Ja Rule and the alleged beef with her former labelmate, Vita. Check out some of the highlights below:

ON WHAT SHE THINKS WENT WRONG FOR MURDER INC. AND IRV GOTTI:

“He had the ball, he just couldn’t get it in the hoop. I think a lot of it was personal issues, I don’t even think it was his business savvy. I think he just let certain things get in the way of what was important.”

ON HOW SHE PARTED WAYS WITH MURDER INC.:

“…I left Murder Inc., I wasn’t kicked off, I wasn’t dropped, I left. It was a little gangster actually. We don’t got to get into the ifs, ands, and buts of what I did and how I did what I did, but it was a little gangster. Me and Irv didn’t speak for 4 years.”

Our very own Cherry Martinez had the pleasure of sitting down recently with hip-hop veteran Charli Baltimore for #GirlPowerMondays. The twosome covered a variety of topics during their chitchat, including the former Murder Inc. recording artist’s hesitation to reenter the recording industry, her new album and movie (Gang of Roses 2), how her then-boyfriend, the late, great Notorious B.I.G., discovered her skills as an emcee, and why she refuses to watch the Notorious movie. Check out some of the highlights from the interview below:

ON HER NEW ALBUM:

“…working on an album, well actually, we’re finishing up the album. The album will be out in April. About to put out the first single, and we got a lot of interesting stuff coming up.”

ON HOW B.I.G. DISCOVERED HER SKILLS AS AN EMCEE:

“B.I.G., knowing I rapped, just came about it by accident. We were playing around one day, and I started like rapping. And he was like, ‘Are you really rapping right now? You actually got a little skills.’”
