  • Say What?!? Actor Jason Weaver Calls Online Response To Lil Boosie Release ‘Coon Sh*t’… [VIDEO]

    Mar, 10 2014 | Written by ATLien

    jason-weaver
    Remember Jason Weaver, the actor who played ‘Teddy’ on ‘A.T.L,’ well he’s in the news this week after making a statement online that caused a bit of an uproar.

    Weaver felt ‘some kinda way’ about the online celebrations sparked by rapper Lil Boosie’s release from Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola this past Wednesday.

    And while many made jokes about the rapper becoming a social media trending topic, Jason Weaver took to his Instagram to target the ‘over the top’ reaction from Lil Boosie?s fans and family… calling it ?coon sh*t.?

    …and this is coming from a person who was arrested for taking a dump in public.

    RHOA S6 Ep17 StraightFromTheA-1

    After taking a week off for the Oscars, The Real Housewives of Atlanta finally aired it’s 17th episode of the 6th season last night (March 9, 2014).

    The ladies move past the drama of episode 16’s ‘Bailey Bowl,’ as Kenya Moore plans a ‘couples’ get away to Mexico for her fellow ‘housewives.’RHOA S6 Ep17 StraightFromTheA-19

    Seems an odd idea for Kenya to be planning a ‘couples’ trip since she isn’t actually part of a couple… but ummkay. Let’s roll with it.

    Not everyone is excited about the ‘couples’ trip but a free trip is still a free trip.

    Phaedra Parks is feeling some kinda way about bringing her husband Apollo Nida on another ‘couples’ vacation with Kenya.

    Suddenly single Porsha Stewart is forced to revisit her failed marriage as Peter Thomas reveals he had a sit down with her ex-husband, Kordell Stewart and of course Kenya takes the opportunity to turn Porsha’s divorce into dinner conversation.

    [FLASHBACK: Andre 3000 Spotted on Set of Jimi Hendrix Project… (PHOTOS)]Andre-3000-Jimi-Hendrix

    A video teaser featuring Outkast member Andre 3000 Benjamin portraying Jimi Hendrix in the ‘All Is By My Side’ biopic was released online yesterday.

    The clip shows a conversation between Hendrix (Andre 3000) and friend Linda Keith (Imogen Poots), as he attempts to convince her to run away with him behind his girlfriend?s back.

    According to Rolling Stone, the film is scheduled to premiere in the U.S. Wednesday, March 12th in Austin, TX during SXSW and is expecting rave reviews.

    [Sidebar: Word on the curb is that the film was written and directed by John Ridley, who recently won an Oscar for penning ’12 Years A Slave’.]

    Da Brat Selfie StraightFromTheA 2014
    It’s only been about three years since Da Brat (aka Shawntae Harris) was released from prison after serving 21 months for a nightclub assault and it’s been less than a week since the Atlanta-based rapper was ordered to pay Shayla Stevens, the victim in the incident, $6.4 Million dollars in a civil suit.

    [READ: DaBrat Ordered to Pay $6.4 Million Judgment Re: 2007 Bottle Attack… ]

    According to court documents, Da Brat’s role in the bottle-wielding incident caused permanent facial scarring, neurological impairment, and severe mental pain to Stevens, a waitress & former NFL cheerleader.

    Brat recently made a video addressing the judgment and she seems to be taking her multi-million dollar debt in stride, stating:

    Like I said in court, I definitely shouldn?t have done what I did and the girl deserved some compensation, but $6.4m? Hell no. I don?t know where anybody gonna get that from. You can?t squeeze water from a turnip.?

    It is what it is. When I start getting it, they?ll get some. They gotta wait in line like everyone else…

        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?
