Lil Scrappy tells Carlos King that he realized ex-girlfriend Erica Dixon was FIONE after season one of ‘Love & Hip Hop Atlanta’ wrapped.
Before stepping into the limelight, Dixon gave “girl next door,” per the Atlanta rapper. He spilled on the beauty of his eldest daughter’s mother during a multi-part sit-down with the television producer.

“That’s the best thing God ever told me to do after rap,” Scrappy said. “After the meeting I had with Mona, I went back to [Erica Dixon] and told her you think this sh*t, you think we need to do this sh*t?” He added, “But Erica was like a real hardworking woman…she had a 9-5.”
Carlos and Scrappy recalled Dixon when she allegedly worked as a medical decoder. At the 37:10 interview mark, he turns to the camera, seemingly sending Erica a message saying, “Don’t even get mad,” before speaking on her style switch-up.
“She was not like the flashy girl like you see her now. She was not like that. She was really like, girl next door, fine beautiful, country,” Scrappy said, as Carlos King agreed with the “girl next door” comment.
