    Ciara Teaches Snoop Dogg the “Stanky Leg” + More “Stanky Legs” From Young to Old

    Feb, 25 2009 | Written by ATLien

    While I was perusing TV late last night, I ran across Ciara teaching Snoop Dogg the “Stanky Leg” on his new MTV show “Dogg After Dark”. I didn’t honestly think anyone else besides Yung Joc and the GS Boys actually did this dance. I guess I was wrong!

    Check out the official “Stanky Leg” video below as well as a few random *cough* “Stanky Leggers” I found while surfing over at YouTube… I guess the critics were right about us Southern hip-hop heads and our willingness to do any made up dance.? SMH!? I so HATE that I love this song…

    The “A” Pod ~ Ludacris ~ “Grizzly” + “Come With Me” (ft David Banner)

    Feb, 25 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Check out two new tracks leaked from Christopher “Ludacris” Bridges:

    “Grizzly” ~ Ludacris

    “Come With Me” ~ Ludacris (feat. David Banner)

    The songs are samples from Trap-A-Holics’ Trap Music 8.0 Mixtape and are tagged up but I really only posted them so I’d have an excuse to post these pics of Luda leaving the LAX airport: 😆

    Is This The Mother of Shaq’s ATL Love Child?

    Feb, 25 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Lawd knows I tried to hold my tounge on this one…but word on the street is that Shaquille O’neal may have left a little legacy in the “A”.? Alexis Miller (aka Mary Jane) the chick who filed a restraining order against the bball star for stalking, withdrew it and then re-appeared on the scene sporting a “Shaq Tatt” has a two-year old son that some are saying clearly resembles my boo!

    The 24 year old inspiring rapper has even bragged about having a son by Shaq to fellow ATLiens. You know I had to digg into my archives to check out what I’d written about this chick…but my keen spidey senses tingled and I detected her level of b*llshit a long time ago when I heard her speak about their relationship with Shaq on an internet podcast.

    She stated that she ended the relationship around July 2008 to *cough* focus on her rap career and that they had dated for a year and a half. She also revealed that she has a 2 year old son whom she says has nothing to do with O?neal. *sigh* {Side Note:} Sometimes I?m not too swift, but those numbers aren?t adding up. Alexis had to have been at least 6 months preggers when they met. 😆

    I don’t know about this one. I already thought she had been paid to drop the charges and that possibly a gag order was in place….but a BABY!? Say it ain’t so?!?!!

    Mugshot Mania ~ Old School R&B Star On The Run + Flashback Video

    Feb, 24 2009 | Written by ATLien
    Do you remember this face? Well neither do I…but if you’re an old school hip-hop head, you may remember his group.? Brian Dalyrimple (33), one of four brothers who made up the R&B group Soul For Real, has been named as a suspect in an identity theft case in Duluth, Georgia that involves over 200 victims. Dalyrimple’s girlfriend, Laborah Crawford has already been detained in the case but he has taken their 10 month old son and is on the run.

    ?One of our detectives is working on it, she?s our white-collar crime specialist and she has identified 145 victims within our jurisdiction, several of them businesses, and an additional 115 victims in other jurisdictions, so you?re looking at over 260 victims right now,? said Maj. Don Woodruff with the Duluth Police Department.The victims, according to police, are now out of more than $1 million collectively as the result of identity theft and financial fraud.

    Crawford is in jail on charges related to the crimes. Dalyrimple was also involved, according to police. ?He was the biological father and the child was turned over to the grandmother in custody and then he went to the day care, picked him up and left with him,? said Woodruff. Police would not say anything more about how they believe the two were able to get the money and personal information of others.

    Police said the investigation began with a call from across the country. (Source)

    Check your credit reports people…this recession is serious!? On a lighter note…remember Soul for Real’s “Candy Rain” featuring Heavy D?

    Lisa Wu-Hartwell Sues Keith Sweat + More Housewife Flix From South Dekalb

    Feb, 24 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Photos by FreddyO

    Lisa Wu Hartwell is taking her ex-hubby, Keith Sweat back to court. The Atlanta Housewive (pictured above during a recent question/answer session at South Dekalb Mall) is seeking to gain full custody and child support for the two sons she shares with Sweat. Jordan Sweat (14) and Justin Sweat Jordan Sweat (11).

    According court papers filed with the Superior Court of Fulton County, Sweat In 2003, Sweat received primary custody of the children in their final divorce decree. Sweat and Wu Hartwell married in 1992 and had what court papers called an ?extremely tumultuous relationship.? Fulton Superior Court judge Cynthia D. Wright, wrote in the decree that ?there is evidence that Father has been violent towards Mother, but no evidence he has ever been violent with any of his children.?

    The judge granted Sweat full custody because she felt the children at the time ?lacked structure in their lives, due in substantial part to Mother?s numerous business ventures and frequent trips out of town ? Mother has a history of spending money on herself excessively rather than providing for the children ? There was some evidence at trial that Mother implicitly participated in robbing Father in the presence of the children. She also took money from Father prior to the initiation of this matter. This behavior causes the Court to question Mother?s maturity and judgment.?

    Lisa has since remarried and now wants her boys back. Wu Hartwell said nothing about the custody case on Saturday during her South Dekalb Mall appearance but she did note that her ex-husband didn?t clear her sons to be on the show. (Source)

    Stay tuned…more drama to follow!

        Straight From the A to the Hall of Fame! This one Straight From the A to the Hall of Fame! This one hits different. 👽🛸

OutKast’s induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame 2025 isn’t just a win for hip-hop — it’s a celebration of Atlanta’s heartbeat. Before there was Real Housewives, Love & Hip Hop, or any Atlanta reality show, there was the Atlanta music scene — real stories, real people, and a creative energy that could only come from the Southside.

I grew up in Southwest Atlanta, and back then, it wasn’t unusual to bump into (or run with) the same circles as OutKast and the Dungeon Family. We were all just young ATL dreamers finding our voices, our style, and our lane. Somewhere along the way, I kinda inserted myself as an unofficial member of that crew, a sister to the culture, always front and center, documenting the movement before “content creator” was even a thing.

When I started blogging in 2007, Straight From The A wasn’t about reality TV or viral gossip. It was about the music, the movement, and the people who put Atlanta on the map. My blog name, my pen name ATLien, my whole digital identity was inspired by @outkast , @goodiemob , @killermike , @ceelogreen @sleepybrown , and the whole Dungeon Family - the original ATLiens who made the world respect the South. 

And Killer Mike — I’ll never forget how you encouraged me to keep pushing nearly 20 years ago when blogging was still that “weird internet thing.”

Today, I celebrate the legends who defined Atlanta’s sound, spirit, and swagger. True innovators. True visionaries. Forever ATL. 👽🛸

        The Kenya Moore Hair Spa drama just got even MESSI The Kenya Moore Hair Spa drama just got even MESSIER, chile! 
The landlord has officially clapped back in court — filing their answer to Kenya’s counterclaim, and whew, they brought receipts on receipts! 

According to the filing, Kenya hasn’t paid a dime in rent or utilities since December 2024, which technically makes her a squatter! 😬 And about that $80K tenant improvement allowance she’s been fighting for? The landlord says she’s in default and violated several terms, meaning that deal is void.

This whole thing is turning into a Bravo-level courtroom saga… minus the peach! 🍑

The full 99-page amended complaint (with all the juicy details) is available now on Patreon + Members Only! http://patreon.com/atlien or hit the link in bio for the exclusive legal tea.

So what do y’all think? Can Kenya spin this, or is the Hair Spa officially a wrap?
