Production and crew[edit | edit source]
The fourth season featured eighteen total baddies as they toured around the East coast of the United States in a "decked-out" tour bus, with cameras capturing club performances and their luxurious vacations in mansions throughout the region. Executive producer Candice Dana Booker invited Mesean "Mint" Carroll, Yolanda "Violeta" Johnson, Kayla "Blaze" Morewood and Calypso "Callie" Peri to return. After the first week of filming, Johnson announced her departure from the series, citing ongoing conflict with Koda TV's production team as her reasoning. Mercedes "DJ Shady Sayd" Wilson also appears in a supporting role as the resident Baddie DJ.
The fourth season saw the cast traveling throughout the East coast, starting from Miami to Fort Lauderdale, Jacksonville, Savannah, Hilton Head, Charleston, Myrtle Beach, Wilmington, Charlotte and Virginia Beach. Amongst the luxurious living spaces, hottest clubs and wildest parties; the season gave an insight into East Coast culture, as the women prove why they are the "baddest" girls of the East coast.
