    end of summer playlist straightfromthea

    Summer is almost over but we can still take advantage of the great weather for at least a few more weeks.

    That being said, AT&T has partnered with me to offer a few readers a nice end of Summer gift.

    With the end of summer rapidly approaching, it seems like the right time to look back at what songs dominated not only music charts, but our playlists.

    From Robin Thicke?s ?Blurred Lines? to Miley Cyrus? ?We Can?t Stop? (admit it… you love it!) and beyond, it?s pretty clear that our smartphones and iPods got a huge workout this summer.

    So in celebration of all things music, I’ve been asked?to entice readers to share their ultimate ?end of summer playlist? for a chance to win two great prizes.

    I have in my possession an?HTC One from AT&T?along with a?BeatboxTMPortable by Beats?to give away to two lucky winners.

    [Sidebar: After all, smartphones and portable speakers are a great way to take your favorite songs with you wherever you go ? from the backyard to the beach and beyond. Right?]

    But I digress… 😆

    Hey ATLien,

    I was minding my business eating out with a friend of mine and we saw Nikko, Mimi boyfriend from Love Hip Hop Atlanta out with a girl.

    They were on a date too because when they walked in they were holding hands. They were sitting close to each other and talking but when he saw us looking he moved his chair away from her and acted like he was checking his phone.

    We took pictures for you put him on blast. lol (but you didn’t get them from me!)

📌 Kandi filed on Nov 24
📌 Todd responded Nov 26
📌 On Dec 1, Kandi amended her petition AND filed a motion to seal the case 😳

Todd says he’s got the kids, Kandi wants the prenup enforced, and she wants to keep it all hush-hush from folks like me… but you know I’m reading it anyway! 🫢 Full video on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/live/zifcIgQVA0A?si=lLU6kMnMMJJdqy_5

        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”? 🤔

Meanwhile Todd ain’t trying to seal a thing.
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. 👽🛸
