This is from an entertainment perspective.

Personally..

Emily is getting cut, she has no more story and she doesn’t start anything.

Somaya, while she is one of my favorites didn’t do much in season 2, and her music wasn’t going to get off the ground anyway.

Out of the season 3 cast I would add

Raqi Thunda - Guys she’s so entertaining and funny and I love hating her. The way she was roasting Rashidah Ali in those green screens were so much fun to watch. It’s very clear that Chrissy didn’t want to be portrayed as a villain so let Raqi do it instead.

Erica Mena - Listen I hate Mena a lot but I would give her this one season just it beef with KimBella and Olivia. And then she’s off the show, she’s irritating and unlikeable but those beefs were unfinished. I still wish Somaya and KimBella would’ve whupped her ass at her birthday party when they ran up on her.

Tahiry - No doubt the best newcomer of season 3, morally grey but Likeable enough; wasn’t afraid of the camera, and gave the show a relationship with a credible rapper.

From season 2 I would add Tearria as a recurring cast or star billing, she was great comedic relief and had a bigger future in music than Olivia, and they looked like they wanted to build a beef with her and Liv too.

Emily and Somaya could also be recurring members too. But Emily’s storyline wasnt entertaining or all that new anymore.

Somaya isn’t close with most of the cast, she was cool with KimBella, and was friends with Emily but she could’ve went and I would’ve been fine.

I think Chrissy and Jim Jones left unfinished, and I have seen Chrissy and Mr Jones so I don’t know how their story continued. But they were a hit with audiences at the time

Olivia has like beef with like the whole cast so why not bring her back, Emily wasn’t rude or die for her, she was straddling the Chrissy and Yandy fence, and she had something serious against Somaya, for some reason? And KimBella.

Yandy would’ve had 3 or less seasons here, I feel like she had too much power over the cast after a certain season and was always seen as above them for some reason.

Kimbella is a shit starter whether she likes it or not. There’s unfinished business with Erica and Olivia’s bystander/judgy ass

What would you have done with this cast?
