  • T.I. & Kap G Discuss Racial Profiling + Angry ‘La Policia’ Lyrics’ w/CNN’s Don Lemon… [VIDEO]

    Apr, 23 2015 | Written by ATLien

    T.I. Don Lemon Kap G CNN

    Clifford ‘T.I.’ Harris and up & coming rapper Kap-G appeared on CNN last night to discuss issues of racial profiling and their ‘angry rap lyrics’ with host Don Lemon.

    It was just about a week ago that Tip and David Banner jumped on the remix of Kap-G’s ‘La Policia’ and in light of all the recent news of police brutality nationwide, it seems their message of rage is being heard loud and clear.TI CNN 2

    [FLASHBACK: T.I. & David Banner Add Powerful Message to Kap-G’s ‘La Policia (AUDIO)]

    When asked about the angry message in the song, T.I. responds:

    I think there is resentment… an undeniable fear that (I believe) law enforcement has for young minorities and it is reflected in their actions.

    And of course that leads to angry lyrics because our music, historically has been a reflection of our circumstances.

    So if you don’t like our lyrics, you must then change the circumstances that inspire them.

    In case you missed it, watch video of T.I. and Kap-G’s CNN appearance below… Continue Reading…

    In the ongoing saga over whether the Academy Award winning actress was ever offered the coveted role of Cookie Lyon on the hit Fox series ?Empire,? Mo?nique is back and this time… she’s pulled receipts!

    [FLASHBACK: Gabborey Sidebe Chimes in on Mo’Nique Drama… ]

    Mo’Nique recently appeared on the SiriusXM radio show ?Sway in the morning,? where she told host Sway Calloway that last year, Daniels called her saying, ?You got the role, but you know, there?s some technical stuff ? I aint? never done TV before, so you gotta go through the technical part.?

    Mo?Nique then produced proof of their conversation… printed-out emails she said were sent to her by Daniels? camp shortly after their conversation, asking her representatives to coordinate a screen test, before they later announced the deal was dead.

    Killer Mike Surprise Party-17

    Michael Render aka ‘Killer Mike‘ recently celebrated his 40th year of life at a surprise party surrounded by friends, family and supporters last Monday evening (April 20, 2015).

    Yes… Mike was really born on the day celebrated by pot smokers all over the world and his 40th birthday was all ‘green’ everything, including a cannabis shaped cake.Killer Mike Surprise Party-22

    The talented lyricist has gained a ton of notoriety with his eloquent raps and speeches focusing social activism (click HERE if you missed Mike on CNN) but that didn’t stop him from totally losing it when faced with a crowed fulled with many of his favorite people.

    Guests were treated to an open bar (Hennessy & Jack Daniels flowed freely) and included Big Boi and his wife Sherlita Patton, Chamillionaire, Jason Geter, Joe Baker, Kawan Prather, DJ Toomp, Ray Murray, Bonecrusher, BackBone, DJ Cutmaster Swiff, DJ Princess Cut, Mika Means and many many more.

    WATCH THIS! Wendy Williams Slams Vivica A. Fox’s ‘Hollywood Divas’ Decision… [VIDEO]

    Apr, 22 2015 | Written by ATLien

    Wendy Williams Vivica A Fox

    A few days ago, I revealed that actress Vivica A. Fox would be joining ‘Hollywood Divas‘ second season (click HERE if you missed that).

    The series, which focuses on the challenges of aging actresses in Hollywood seems like a great fit for Vivica but apparently many seem to think her association with the show is a downgrade.

    Wendy Williams recently shared her take on Vivica’s decision, stating:

    ?Vivica Fox, I love you, but I hate this idea. You are above this. For goodness sake, you were in Pulp Fiction! What are you doing joining the cast of Hollywood Divas? Now, there?s nothing wrong with Hollywood Divas and shows like that?but they are for a certain echelon of people.

    When I think of Vivica A. Fox, I?m not comparing her to Golden Brooks, from Girlfriends. [She] was on Girlfriends; respectable career, but where has she been? She?s not supposed to be in the same room, on the same cast as Vivica A. Fox. That?s all I?m saying.?

    Waka Flocka Flame For President 2016 - 6

    In case you were wondering why Waka Flocka Flame isn’t on Love & Hip Hop Atlanta this season, it could be because he’s got way bigger fish to fry with his presidential campaign.Waka Flocka Flame For President 2016 - 2

    Yuuup… you read correctly. Waka Flocka Flame (real name Juaquin Malphurs) plans to enter his bid for candidacy for President of the United States.

    On Monday, April 20th, Waka Flocka Flame announced his candidacy for President of the United States in an exclusive interview with Rolling Stone. It’s only fair to say that this news took the world by storm.

    Millions of people were excited to see the Flockaveli rapper in the race. They called, texted, tweeted and Facebook-messaged their friends to talk about Waka’s plans. Some of them even thought he was joking.

    It was no joke…. *sigh*

        Kandi Burruss filed an amended complaint after Tod Kandi Burruss filed an amended complaint after Todd’s attorney called her out for procedural errors. She’s now asking for primary physical custody of the kids, and basically saying Bravo’s uncut footage should be subpoenaed too 👀

This ain’t reality TV — it’s real life, and it’s getting messy QUICK. And if Todd thought he was gon’ walk off with the kids? Kandi said: “Nah, I want it all.”

        For YEARS y’all invited us into everything — t For YEARS y’all invited us into everything — the love, the prenup, the babies, the fights, the businesses… all of it on reality TV.
But NOW that the divorce is in court, suddenly it’s “seal the documents & protect my privacy”? 🤔

So what changed? And what doesn’t she want the public to see?
Let’s talk about it… 👀🍿

        They try to silence strong Black women for telling They try to silence strong Black women for telling the truth — but somehow misogyny gets rewarded with views, clicks, and applause.

What’s even more disturbing? So many women are cheering it on.
At some point, we have to ask: Why is disrespect toward Black women still profitable?

This isn’t entertainment.
This is accountability.

        This was not a “read.” This was an unprovoked, This was not a “read.” This was an unprovoked, problematic rant — and it needed to be called out. Junkie Dineva went after Tamar Braxton’s parents, upbringing, and mental health for no legitimate reason, and that kind of misogyny should never be excused as entertainment.

Going viral for disrespecting Black women is the real issue — and that’s what we’re unpacking on ATLien Live.

        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. 👽🛸
