    After the dust settles, two of the women decide to trek back to Atlanta, leaving a small crew behind to enjoy the Florida sun. Kim’s apprehension about Kenya is pushed to the limits, forcing her to reconsider her decision about continuing this newfound friendship.

    Dec, 17 2015 | Written by ATLien

    yoshia family Ratchet Christmas Card 3

    A Florida family’s 2015 Christmas card has gone viral and is apparently upsetting thousands of strangers on the internet over its apparent denigration of females.

    On the card in question, a couple and their two adult daughters pose in typical holiday portrait fashion around a tree, wearing matching attire.

    Rachel Yoshida, 19, her sister Natalie, 21, and their mother all wear red and white T-shirts with the word “Ho” printed on them. Standing side-by-side, they form Santa’s catchphrase “Ho Ho Ho,” while the man of the house sits in a chair in front of his WIFE?and DAUGHTERS?proudly rocking a shirt that reads “Chillin’ With My Ho’s.”

    “How dangerous is it that a man just got beat up at his political rally?” he went on, referencing the Black Lives Matter activist who was beaten at a Trump event last month.

    Monica Brown appeared on The Wendy Williams Show this morning to promote the release of her ‘Code Red’ album.

    When asked about what to expect from the new release, Mo’ states:

    I’m just fighting for the restoration of R&B. It’s not as respected and as loved as it used to be.

    That’s why I call it ‘Code Red’… that’s why I dyed my hair red. I took the whole movement serious because this music really saved my life and I think it will for some other people.?? I think we need some balance.

    Monica also referenced a few other talented singers who are also helping restore the genre like Fantasia and Jazmine Sullivan.

        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?
