    Jan, 23 2015 | Written by ATLien

    Curtis Bethea - MidtownPuncher

    Meet 31-year old Curtis Bethea. Betha posed for the mugshot above after he was nabbed in connection to a slew of random attacks around Atlanta.

    I don’t know if you guys have heard about the ‘knockout game’ that’s been going around on viral video for months now, but sites like Worldstarhiphop and YouTube are filled with examples.

    [FLASHBACK: Mugshot Mania: When Strippers Attack… ]

    The vicious attack is the noted as a random, unprovoked assault where an attacker attempts to ‘knockout’ a stranger with a single punch.

    Bethea was allegedly involved in similar acts around Atlanta, in which he walked up to strangers in the midtown area, punched them in the face and ran away. *sigh*

    THEY SAY: #RHOA Kenya Moore Behind Offensive ‘Black Wives Matter’ Posters…

    Jan, 22 2015 | Written by ATLien

    2013 Essence Festival - Seminars - Day 1

    A few days ago, I received several emails about some random Real Housewives of Atlanta posters spotted around town.

    Many were outraged that Bravo would have the nerve to use advertising that played off the #BlackLivesMatter campaign.

    [READ: Fan Mail: Offensive ‘Black Wives Matter’ Posters Spotted in Atlanta (PHOTO)]

    Andy Cohen even responded on Twitter and said Bravo had nothing to do with it.

    Well, now I’ve received an email from someone claiming that it was all Kenya Moore’s doing… and oddly enough, I think it’s a load of crap. *sigh*

        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?
