  • Monica Wants Her Stalker(s) to Know…

    Jan, 26 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Newly wedded Monica Brown (yes…she has a last name now) is in a different place in her life and she’s not taking any crap from anyone! Especially someone hiding behind a computer.

    If you recall, Mo quit twitter last year after she said she was being stalked on the online social network but soon returned at the urging of her loyal fans. Now someone is at it again with Mo, concocting a few fake emails that contain malicious lies about her and her new hubby, NBA baller Shannon Brown.

    Rumor has it that the emails contain information about Mo & her former fiance’ Rocko’s rocky breakup and alleges that Mo and her two sons moved in with Shannon because she had no where else to go, since Rocko owns her Atlanta home.

    Mo has a warning for whoever it is who felt the need to write such vicious lies: Continue Reading…

    Super Producer Nitti Beatz’ Birthday Bash ~ 8Ball, Yung Joc, NFL Ballers & More… [PHOTOS]

    Jan, 26 2011 | Written by ATLien

    It was a hometown celebration as Super Producer Nitti Beatz was honored with a birthday bash last Friday (January 21, 2011) at Atlanta’s Cream Ultra Lounge.

    This event, which doubled as Cream’s grand opening affair, was hosted by Young Joc; super-producer Bangledesh, Robert Mathis and Philip Wheeler of the Indianapolis Colts, and Jerious Norwood of the Atlanta Falcons.

    Jerius Norwood (Atlanta Falcons)

    Nitti and his crew totally rocked the spot, with just about everybody who’s ever been touched by a Nitti beat rocking the mic. Dorrough rocked? “Ice Cream Paint Job,” 8Ball performed the hit “DJ Bring it Back,” and Joc (who has just about cornered the market on Nitti Beats) rocked the crowd as well.

    8Ball, Robert Mathis (Indianapolis Colts) & Nitti

    The “A” Team was in full effect, posted up in the back of the V.I.P. taking it all in. 8Ball & MJG are my personal favs so I was in heaven! Not to mention we ended up in the NFL corner with Roddy White and nem…

    Hot or Not? Usher Raymond on the NRJ Music Awards Red Carpet [PHOTOS]

    Jan, 26 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Usher Raymond IV hit the red carpet of the 2011 NRJ Music Awards in Cannes, France looking a bit less dapper than normal. I dunno about you, but I almost shed a tear when I spotted Ush looking like this!? What the hail Ush??

    Faux-hawk and scruffy beard aside… Usher’s ensemble resembles something my Uncle Calvin would wear to the family bar-b-que… with a case of Corona’s and a bag of ice in hand.? To each his own, but I think I saw a similar outfit being sold on the corner of MLK a few weeks ago.

    Hmmm… Maybe Usher’s been hittin’ those cougars a bit too much these days. He’s way too young to be looking this old.

    What do you think of Usher’s “new look”? Hot or Not?

    Greg Leakes’ Son Spills the T.E.A. on NeNe Divorce + Reality Show for Bryson?

    Jan, 26 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Divorce rumors about NeNe Leakes of the Real Housewives of Atlanta and her husband Greg are apparently still circulating.

    I’ve said time and time again that I don’t for one minute believe these two are breaking up and I base my hunch simply on the fact that Lisa Wu-Hartwell confided to me during THIS mini-interview that Bravo asked her to create drama between her and Ed to stay on the show and she wouldn’t.

    I’ve also seen NeNe and Greg together on many occasions AFTER all the divorce talk unfolded, but that’s besides the point.? NeNe’s stepson (Greg Leakes’ 34 year old son Damien) has recently gone public about the drama unfolding between the two… and he say’s it’s about to get really messy!

    Remember when Greg Leakes’ ranted in that historic taped phone call about $300,000 NeNe owed him for all that plastic surgery? Well Damien says that’s all true and his Daddy is looking to collect his cash… Continue Reading…

    For Sistahs Only: To Weave or Not to Weave? “F*ck This Natural Hair Sh*t!” [VIDEO]

    Jan, 26 2011 | Written by ATLien

    There will forever be a battle between Black women and their hair. It is what it is. We can sit and debate about it or we can just accept it and move on.

    No woman is the same and everyone has their preference. We have all battled the “creamy crack” (aka permanent relaxers), braids, weaves, wigs, etc. and while some find comfort in their “good hair,” others have chose to give up the traditional methods of straightening their hair to go au naturel.

    [WATCH: Oprah’s “Good Hair” Show w/Chris Rock & Solange ~ VIDEO]

    Someone sent me this video of a woman who tried to give up perms, weaves & wigs but just couldn’t do it.? “Keesh” is totally OVER IT and hilariously puts “natural hair” perspective with her video “F*ck this Natural Hair Sh*t!”

    Hey.. I had fun. But y’all can have this natural hair sh*t! F*ck that!! I’m about to go buy me a weave and tell my sister to braid my sh*t to the back…

    Check out the hilarious natural hair commentary below and feel free to discuss (Warning: Strong Language): Continue Reading…

    Dekalb County Police to be Featured on A&E’s “The First 48”

    Jan, 25 2011 | Written by ATLien

    The show that gave Memphis, Tennesee the title of “murder capital” is coming to Atlanta.

    Dekalb County Police has signed a contract with producers of the popular A&E docu-drama “The First 48,” and production crews began shooting just last week.

    The metro Atlanta county is divided over how the exposure will affect Dekalb County murder investigations. Some officers believe the national exposure from the documentary television series will help with recruiting, while others are concerned it could actually help criminals instead. 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?
