  • Rick Ross “Self Made” Listening Session [PHOTOS + VIDEO]

    May, 17 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Rick Ross aka Ricky Rozay hit up Atlanta’s Patchwerks Studios a few days ago to give a select group of DJ’s and tastemakers a preview of his upcoming “Self Made” project.

    It’s been about two years since I first met Ross during his “Deeper Than Rap” listening session, where he boasted about Malibu & Pineapple all night long, but this time it was all about Ciroc and juice.

    With his “Self Made” LP being the first release from his new Maybach Music Group imprint under Warner Bros., Ross recruits Wale, Meek Mill & Pill, all self-made men as well, who rap on several tracks.

    Ross and Pill were fresh off the set of their new video for “Pac Man” and Rick spoke about filming in the Atlanta’s 4th ward…

    Another single featuring Pill as well as Wale and Meek Mill boasts of making it ?By Any Means? necessary. The single leaked online a few days ago and is making waves as well.

    On Blast! Jeezy, Jazze Pha & Polow Exposed for Unpaid Recording Debts…

    May, 17 2011 | Written by ATLien

    They pop bottles all night long and “make it rain” at the skrip club but an explosive investigative report from CBS Atlanta reveals that a few big name Atlanta producers have been bilking the little guys that help them make those millions of dollars that they floss so much.

    Jazze Pha, Polow Da Don and Young Jeezy are all named in the report initiated by recording engineers who say they have unpaid invoices and court judgments going back years!

    Recording engineer Tony Terrebonne supplied a CBS Atlanta investigative reporter with a Gwinnett County court judgment against Polow Da Don, showing he owes more than $20,000 in unpaid studio services and attorneys fees.

    Terrebonne said $8,0000 of that is for his work on the Chris Brown hit ?Forever.? Terrebonne provided an invoice that shows he is owed $480 for Usher?s ?Love In The Club.?

    Terrebonne said he has stopped working for Polow because he was owed $50,000 at one point.

    ?It’s a lot of hard work, I’ll be up for three days straight and I won’t get paid for it. It’s insane,? said Terrebonne who moved in with his parents and sold his car.

    Polow?s company, Zone 4, responded to the allegations through a statement to CBS which read:

    ?Polow always handles all of his business vendors with the utmost respect and timely payment, but this situation is a unique private dispute and as such Polow will not dignify any celebrity smear campaign by comment.?

    In other words… ‘I didn’t pay him but I have a mighty good reason’.

    But wait… there’s more! Continue Reading…

    ATL LIVE Celebrates 1 Year Anniversary ~ Sheree & Bob Whitfield, Tameka Raymond, Fonzworth Bentley & More…

    May, 16 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Sheree Whitfield, Tameka Raymond, Q Parker, NEXT, Fonzworth Bentley, former Falcons Bob Whitfield & Jamal Anderson were just a few of the hometown faves spotted at ATL Live On The Park last week.

    Tameka Foster Glover Raymond, ATLien (Michelle Brown) & Sheree’ Whitfield

    Overheard: “You just posed between two of the most notorious “exes” in Atlanta…”

    And yes… Tameka is still yappin about me not liking her but I coulda sworn I forgave her about that death threat when we had that long “A”zz conversation at Essence last year. But I digress…

    Event producers Shanti Das and Marlon Nichols did a wonderful job bring together over 300 Atlanta tastemakers and music industry insiders to celebrated the One-Year Anniversary of the event, held at Park Tavern in midtown.

    Heralded as the most exclusive live music showcase in the city author/musician Fonzworth Bentley wowed the crowd with his expertly choreographed routine and R&B group NEXT reunited as headliners of the hot show.

    When RL spotted 112’s Q Parker sitting in the audience alongside his wife Sherlinda, he handed him the mic urging him to sing a few bars.

    Q first sung a lick while sitting but soon hit the stage, giving the hyped crowed a brief 112 flashback…

    But wait!!! There’s more…. 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?
