    The “A” Pod ~ Anything (To Find You) – Monica ft. Lil’ Kim & Rick Ross (Prod. Missy Elliott)

    Jul, 9 2011 | Written by ATLien

    The first single from Monica’s highly anticipated seventh studio album ?New Life? has finally been released.

    ?Anything (To Find You)? is a Missy Elliott produced track, which samples Notorious B.I.G.?s ?Who Shot Ya?? and features raps from Rick Ross and Lil Kim.

    Monica opens up the song borrowing a line from Mary J. Blige’s classic 1995 hit, ‘You’re All I Need to Get By”, singing:

    Like sweet morning dew/ I take one look at you/ And it was plain to see/ You were my destiny…

    Then Ross hits the beat with a few bars…

    We the big bank boys on the boulevard/ Putting all the pretty girls in the pretty cars/ Thou shalt not f*ck with Rozay pockets/ Feel a hundred shots when I pop it…

    Lil Kim drops a verse reeking of heartbreak….

    Who shot ya? Pow, I guess it was Cupid. Golden arrow through the heart, let the blood drip. Somebody call the doctor ’cause I’m lovesick. Man, I don’ had it with this love sh*t.

    WATCH: 10 Things We HATE About Facebook… (Narrated by Puppets) [VIDEO]

    Jul, 9 2011 | Written by ATLien

    You know the stats but let me tell you again…. 500 MILLION people worldwide use Facebook.

    That means that just about everyone you know has a Facebook profile and those that say they don’t are probably lying to you.

    That being said, social networking is so common place that it has become a part of our everyday existence.

    Due to the commonality of our use of social networking, we all have our pet peeves.

    I ran across a hilarious viral video recently entitled, “Top 10 Things We Hate About Facebook”.

    The video is narrated by puppets but the furry creatures capture the essence of “all things Facebook” that rub us the wrong way.? From photos of the dinner it took your “friend” hours to prepare to Mom stalking your page… I think they just about covered ’em all!

    I still can’t stop laughing… 😆

    Waka Flocka Flame Pulls A “Jay-Z”… (Talks Rap Retirement)

    Jul, 8 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Waka Flocka Flame decided to get his “grown man on” recently and dropped in his saggin jeans to try on a few business suits.

    Flocka also did something else surprising… following in the steps of his rap elder, Jay-Z, Flocka announced he would be quitting the rap game next year…

    Ummmm…. perhaps he meant he raps “quite” well. 😕

    Whatever the case, Flocka hit up V-103’s Elle Duncan to explain his decision and confirmed that he’s definitely OverIt(dot)com…

    The game as a whole is a fake. I’m tired of going through what I go through…

    It’s hard not to see the natural progression in this situation.? He ain’t foolin’ nobody! Waka’s been reading the 48 Laws of Power and has decided to utilize Law #16 ~ Use absence to create honor & respect.

    Jay-Z did it… and came back a few years later talmbout ’30 is the new 20′. Then he married Beyonce and the rest is history.? Flocka may be on to something…

    Will you miss Waka when/if he leaves?

    Mugshot Mania ~ NeNe Leakes’ Son Bryson Caught Shoplifting… *UPDATED*

    Jul, 8 2011 | Written by ATLien

    NeNe Leakes oldest son Bryson Bryant posed for yet another mugshot yesterday. Apparently NeNe found out this morning, and according to her tweets, shes not too happy about it…

    Details are sketchy, but Bryson was booked into jail at 10:07pm last night (July 7, 2011). He is being charged with shoplifting and violation of probation. No word yet on a bond.

    As you know, Bryson has been arrested several times in the past and the probation violation charge probably stems from one of his previous arrests.

    Last year, Bryson was arrested when he was found to be in possession of marijuana while visiting a friend in jail. He was arrested a 2nd time on a separate drugs & weapons charge.

    *UPDATE* According to TMZ, Bryant is accused of jacking two Mach 3 razors from a Walmart .. and was busted by the Walmart security team. The razors were reportedly valued at $14 bux a piece.

        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?
