Black History Hair Care Moment… [VIDEO]

Dec, 4 2012 | Written by ATLien

Black is beautiful and our hair comes in all textures.

While there are those of us who chose to ditch the chemicals created as a convenience to make haircare painless, there are still many of choose to embellish their looks with the help of extensions & the like.

I’m not here to argue the benefits of permanent relaxers aka “creamy crack” or to r to preach about my long silky 32 inch Malaysian hair, because I believe it’s our differences that make us great.

Imagine a world full of people who looked exactly the same, dressed exactly the same, and wore their hair EXACTLY the same.

How boring would THAT be??

That being said, check out this vintage Black haircare tutorial for 3 whole new hairstyles… Continue Reading…

Facebook Fail… And Her Name Ain’t “Mari Juana”

Nov, 2 2011 | Written by ATLien

Did we not learn ANYTHING from Wiz Khalifa’s twitter incident? *sigh* A loyal StraightFromTheA.com reader sent in the Facebook Fail photo above.

This is a profile picture on facebook…then lil mama has her name place of employment and everything else on her profile…really? Who does that?

I think I can safely say posting a photo like this (especially alongside your employment information) is a social media DON’T! I swear some people should be banned from the innnnanet!

On a lighter note, if you feel like an URB-al ATL flashback…. Continue Reading…

Mugshot Mania ~ Angie Stone is a Speed Demon with No Driver’s License…

Mar, 28 2011 | Written by ATLien

I normally don’t post mugshots back to back but when TMZ sent over this email I almost dropped my Macbook!

Neo-soul songstress & Atlanta transplant Angie Stone posed for the mugshot above after she was busted yesterday (March 27) for speeding & driving on a suspending license.

According to TMZ, Angie was booked on both the speeding charge and the suspended license charge last night — and released an hour later.

I’m so over all y’all high-falutin’ industry folk who can’t get y’all’s regular sh*t in order. A SUSPENDED LICENSE? Really… Angie? *sigh*

I guess Angie can now squeeze her image in the middle of her baby daddy D’Angelo’s collection of mugs.

This calls for a “No More Rain” flashback…

ATL Flashback ~ “Laundromat” Nivea ft. R. Kelly

Apr, 23 2010 | Written by ATLien

Check out today’s ATL Flashback video — Nivea‘s “Laundromat.”

I’m sure you can recall that way way back in the day…. before Nivea became a baby making machine, she was a hot up & coming songstress who worked with the likes of R. Kelly. Now she’s doing remixes with Rasheeda, while tending to The Dream & Lil Wayne’s kids. My how time flies!

Jermaine Dupri Circa 1986 + “I Need That Girl” ~ Ocean’s 7

Nov, 16 2009 | Written by ATLien

Some flashback footage of Jermaine Dupri has been circulating the net showing the mogul way before he was famous. JD rocks a highlighted gumby while his mom, Cecelia Mauldin speaks about her rapper/producer son and his talents. In the video, JD (circa 1986) gives a bit of advice to up and coming producers by telling them that it’s a must to have the right people behind them and to never give up. It’s so refreshing to see how hard work and passion pays off.

Video ~ Before They Were Stars: Jermaine Dupri

Fast forward 13 years and you’ve got Jermaine (circa 2009) joined by his Ocean’s 7 crew which includes Trey Songz and Nelly. Nelly did a bit of a flashback himself to Country Grammar, as he reprises his singing chops on the chorus of the new joint.
