As first reported here last September, WE-TV has a new reality show focused exclusively on Atlanta-based rap star Waka Flocka and his wife Tammy Rivera.

They had previously appeared on "Love and Hip Hop Atlanta" on VH1, "Growing up Hip Hop Atlanta" on WE-TV and "Marriage Boot Camp: Hip Hop Edition" on WE-TV last year.

This new show, entitled “Waka & Tammy: What the Flocka,” will debut Thursday, March 12 on WE-TV.

The couple broke up for a time during “Love and Hip Hop” following Waka’s infidelity but regained their footing after “Marriage Boot Camp.” Their marriage appeared to be on more solid ground after that show taped in 2018.

Here’s how WE-TV is defining the new reality show:

Waka and Tammy find themselves in their new home in Atlanta, where they are navigating all the challenges of married life. From home renovation, juggling Tammy's bustling music career, parenting their teenage daughter Charlie, and meddling in-laws, keeping their marriage strong takes work.
