  • The “A”Pod ~ “Turnin’ Me On” (Remix) ~ Keri Hilson ft. T-Pain & Lil Wayne

    Keri Hilson Feat. T-Pain & Lil? Wayne – Turnin? Me On Remix

    Spotted @ TheSmokingSection

    The song is hawt on it’s own and the remix is just that much better.? Check out the remix to Keri Hilson‘s Turnin’ Me On featuring T-Pain and Lil Wayne.? Keri goes hard at ‘someone’ in her mini rap when she states “Check the credits Ho!”…everyone seems to believe it’s Beyonce but I don’t see it that way. I thinks she’s merely tellin all y’all hating “A”zzz “ho’s” that she wrote this ish! 😆

    By the way, Tariq “King Flex” Nasheed called me out as a ‘super snoop’ on his Mack Lessons radio show last week and he also asked me to post more Keri. Tariq seems to think that Keri doesn’t do men.

    Well I put my super snoop skills to work King Flex! You’ll be happy to note that Keri plays with balls. 🙂

    Peep the video below… Continue Reading…

    Andr? 3000 Brings “Sunny Bridges” To The Stage

    Mar, 3 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Nearly a year after Big Boi tore up the Fox with his collaboration on the hip-hop ballet Big, his partner in crime Andr? Benjamin aka Andre 3000 will be hitting the stage in a newly adapted stage version of his Emmy award-winning “Class of 3000” cartoon series. The show originally aired on The Cartoon Network but they ceased production on the animated comedy after only 26 episodes. Now the Alliance Children?s Theatre will present the world premiere stage adaptation beginning this Friday (March 6th). In case you didn’t know, Dre is the show?s creator, executive producer and starred in the toon as the inspirational music teacher Sunny Bridges.? He also created a new song for every episode (five of which will appear in the stage play). When asked if it was difficult writing music for a younger audience, the ATL legend responded:

    I wasn?t trying to water down the music aspect of the show just because it was for kids. You watch old ?Peanuts? or ?Fat Albert? shows, they weren?t necessarily kids? songs. On ?Peanuts,? you?re listening to jazz by Vince Guaraldi. I want to make sure that kids had something to listen to that wasn?t teeny bopper songs ? although we would do those, too, if they fit into the story. I wanted to give them a little jazz, ragtime, blues, funk music, with the hope that if kids heard those kinds of music later, they?d say, ?Hey, I remember this kind of song!? I thought that was fitting, since I play a music teacher. I also wanted to show how different kinds of songs, like classical music, could be reinterpreted in new ways, which is what I like to do with my other kinds of music. MORE

    The music definitely isn’t watered down! It’s smooth, comfy and feels like home. Between this play and Big Boi’s Big with the Atlanta Ballet, these two dudes are dayum near unstopable! I can’t wait to see what Dre comes up with onstage! (Anyone got a kid they could loan me next week 😕 )

    A few of my favorite songs from Dre’s “Class of 3000” as well as show information below:

    A Richer Shade of Blue **My personal favorite**

    Clowning Christina…

    Mar, 3 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Jermaine Dupri, Usher, Johnta Austin, Bryan-Michael Cox and InTynational (aka The Oceans 5) all took a moment to clown Christina Milian’s “broke blonde” look at the recent Atlanta hawks game against the Cavaliers. WoooooW! 😯 Oh yeah…they didn’t leave Chris and Rihanna out! Calling them a “modern day Ike & Tina”…

    I have no words…they said it all! Video below:

    Tyler Perry Plans Island Purchase for 40th Birthday

    Mar, 2 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Photo via WireImage

    Fresh off the success of his current film release, Tyler Perry’s Madea Goes to Jail (which grossed over $41 million opening weekend), Perry is already planning a quick escape from the madness of Hollywood.? Recently, the 39 year old bachelor confirmed to People Magazine that for his 40th birthday (September 14th) he plans to join the ranks of David Copperfield and Mel Gibson with the purchase of the ultimate getaway. A tropical island paradise!

    “I’m a loner by nature, so when I’m out there on these islands, I just feel like the only person in the world,”

    After recently spending a week vacationing on a private island in the Great Exumas in the Bahamas, he admits it’s not all relaxation: “Renting an island is the best place for me to work uninterrupted.”

    What will he call his own private isle? “It won’t be Tyler Perry’s Island!” he laughs. “I’m so sick of seeing Tyler Perry all over everywhere!”

    Instead, he’ll wait until he’s inspired by the exotic locale, which he hasn’t quite decided on yet. “It’ll speak to me,” he says. “I’ll know what to call it once I’m there.”

    I’m sitting here wondering what would possibly go on on TP’s island paradise. Will there be tons of Madea-esque drag queens struttin around smoking cigarettes in bikini’s or sexy island mami’s catering to his every whim?? Hmmmm? *scratching head*? We’ll never know…cause Tyler’s already imposed one rule before he’s even signed the closing documents… No paparazzi! So I guess we’ll just have to either wait for an invite or use our imagination…

    Have fun Tyler! 🙂 Tyler Perry’s Madea Goes to Jail is in theatres now.

        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?
