    A new video has recently been released from H-Town. You remember H-Town dontcha? Ok… lemme refresh your memory ~~> Knockin the Boots?? OK. Now that you’ve been reminded, H-Town originally consisted of members Darryl “G.I.” Jackson and his longtime friends, Solomon “Shazam” Conner and Shazam’s twin brother, Keven “Dino” Conner. The 3rd member of the group, Dino was killed in an automobile accident in 2003.? Since that awful loss, the group has continued to perform as a duo and is now back with a new video entitled, Knockin Your Heels Off which features Jodeci. Yep… you read right. JODECI is back in the game and totally stole the spotlight from H-Town!

    Flashback Friday ~ Video: Goodie Mob Documentary

    Oct, 23 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Goodie Mob

    I now pronounce this FLASHBACK Friday. Way before Cee-Lo came to his senses and decided to reunite with the group (Goodie Mob Reunion Concert Footage), there was a short documentary developed around the Goodie Mob which carried the name of their “One Monkey Don’t Stop No Show” project.? The entire Dungeon Family, including Outkast, participated in the video and I give the directors much props for putting all this great footage together. If you’re a true southern hip-hop head, this is one video that’ll make your day. Happy Friday!

    Video ~ Goodie Mob Documentary (Part 1)

    Synopsis: Goodie Mob, based in Atlanta, Georgia, is widely considered one of the founding hip hop acts of the Dirty South movement. Members Cee-Lo (Thomas Callaway), Khujo Goodie (Willie Knighton, Jr.), T-Mo Goodie (Robert Barnett), and Big Gipp (Cameron Gipp) make up the group, which has been functioning since 1995.

    “GOODIE MOB”, as it’s written on their album covers, stands for “GOOD DIE Mostly Over Bullshit”. Cee-Lo notes in a song off the Soul Food album that, “[If] you take out one ‘O’ it stands for ‘GOD Is Every Man Of Blackness.’ ”

    Its members were all born in Atlanta, and the group is based there with the rest of the Dungeon Family, a collective which includes OutKast and P.A. (Parental Advisory). Goodie was first heard featured on several songs from OutKast’s first album Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik.

    Cee-Lo was the most visible member of the group prior to his departure in 2000 (among other projects, he is now recording as Gnarls Barkley), while Big Gipp has made several rounds on other Dungeon Family members’ albums and a solo album Mutant Mindframe, and T-Mo and Khujo form a duo within the group called The Lumberjacks.

    Boo’d Up ~ Juanita Bynum’s Ex Remarries…

    Oct, 21 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Bishop Thomas Weeks II & Christina Glenn

    Photo via MySpace

    Juanita Bynum’s ex-husband Bishop Thomas Weeks III remarried over the weekend in a quiet ceremony. Weeks, head of Global Destiny Worldwide, an international church empire, chose to keep the nuptials hush hush, inviting only his church family and friends instead of the media spotlight that followed him during the stormy break-up of his marriage to pastor Juanita Bynum in 2008.? His new bride, Christina Glenn is a self-described prophetess, who like Bynum has a ministry of her own. Weeks has incorporated Glenn into his enterprise, which hawks everything from videos to Christian conference tickets and the couple even appears together on a videotaped seminar showing Christians how to start loving relationships called ?You Can Begin Again.?

    In a bizarre move, Weeks chose to have a private ceremony while offering to sell his wedding video online for $10. In comparison, his wedding to Bynum was an extravagent million dollar ceremony that ended in drama. Being that Weeks is the man behind Juanita Bynum’s “Domestic Violence” campaign, we can only pray that his new ‘prophetess’ bride can foresee the violence way before it begins.

    The newlyweds are now on their honeymoon in an undisclosed location.

        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?
