  • Chris Brown: From Elmo to “A”zzz Whoopins… by Tariq Nasheed

    Feb, 24 2009 | Written by ATLien

    I’m sure everyone knows by now who’s all on my ‘secret crush’ list…cause it’s no dayum secret! There’s Big Boi, Jeezy, Shaq and Tariq Nasheed… love them all and they can do no wrong!? Well I take that back…I do love them all but we know how knee-grows can be. 😆 This week Tariq’s taken the opportunity to clown Chris Brown during his latest Mack Lesson’s podcast. If you’re familiar with Tariq, you already know he went hard on him. Check out the clip of his last show where he talks about C-Breezy’s venture from Elmo to “A”zz whoopins under the cut (Warning: Strong Language…I think it’s hilarious but don’t bother clicking if you’re easily offended):

Yes…he still wears his pants backwards. Yes…he has bald spots.? No…he doesn’t have Cancer or Leukemia.? Yes…he has alopecia which has caused his hair loss…and NO…he’s not broke!

    Bow Wow Speaks on Chris Brown + New Video “You Can Get It All” Ft. Johnta Austin

    Feb, 24 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Bow Wow got his paws wet yesterday at Planet Hollywood NY as he promoted the upcoming release of New Jack City II. As the miniature rapper left a caste of his hands to be held on display at the restaurant, he took a moment to discuss his good friend Chris Brown’s situation with OK magazine:

    “I’ve been in a high profile relationship before and I know how it feels when everybody’s in your business. It just puts more pressure. And the only way they’re going to get over the situation is just to let them deal with it. And that’s what I really want to do. I’m praying for them both.”

    Bow Wow, who says he hasn’t spoken to either Chris or Rihanna, says he couldn’t believe the horrifying picture that leaked on the internet last week, showing the singer with cuts and bloodied bruises on her face.

    “Just shocking…I mean we heard what happened but we really didn’t get a visual for it. But I mean hey, man. The picture speaks for itself.”

    Anywhoo…Bow Wow’s new video, “You Can Get It All” featuring Johnta Austin below:

    It?s been at least 10 years since Dru Hill‘s last album dropped but the group has now reunited and has a new reality show in the works that will follow them as they attempt a comeback. Leading the pack is R&B legend and Atlanta resident Keith Sweat who has assumed the role of producer of the show documenting their efforts entitled “Platinum House.”?? Last night, the premiere party for Platinum House, held at Aquanox, and was attended by Vawn, Jazze Pha, Drumma Boy, Frankie, Sheree Whitfield and more. Even that lil boy from Tyler Perry’s House of Pain was there…at the club…partying with the grown folks…but I digress.

    Check out a few flix as well as some behind the scenes video below:

    Lisa Wu-Hartwell, NeNe Leakes and Sheree Whitfield left their comfy confines of North Atlanta to make a trip over to the Eastside last weekend.? The three Real Housewives of Atlanta paid a visit to Dekalb County’s South Dekalb Mall for a special panel discussion with host/moderator V-103’s Ryan Cameron.

    The housewives event was orignally scheduled for 4:00pm Saturday but got a late start because all of the housewives had not arrived. By about 4:30pm Ryan finally took the stage and blamed Sheree as the late culprit.? A crowd of about 200 fans cheered and screamed their names as they finally got started.? Questions were prepared in advance, but the biggest revelation came when the trio announced that Season Two would finally begin filming on Monday (today).


    Check out a few of the questions/answers addressed on the panel below: Continue Reading…

        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. 👽🛸

After all that eviction tea, the doors are locked and lights out. Big shoutout to @millichun for sliding by to check out the scene! 

Is Kenya really Gone With the Rent? Or is Friday her off day? 👀

        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?

She said “one closing down, more to come” — so is this a boss move or a sign she’s liquidating assets after that prenup drama?
