  • Ne-Yo is Disturbed By Poor Album Sales but Proud to be a Daddy?

    Dec, 9 2010 | Written by ATLien

    Singer/songwriter Ne-yo is fuming that his latest new album ?Libra Scale? only reach #8 on the charts after selling a measly 117k copies in its first week.

    Neyo blames piracy on the album’s lackluster sales, in addition to people not feeling his “vision.” So what does he do about it? He hits up his twitter account to b*tch and moan to his 465,000+ followers…

    I LOVE those that love me and love my art. They let me know that tho my vision sometimes isn’t for everyone, those that get it GET IT….

    I love the fact that some people understand my music and some don’t. It let’s me know that tho individuality is fleeting, it still exists…

    I love that there are people that sing better, dance better, make more money, sell more albums…it gives me new goals to reach…

    The beauty of being an artist is expansion and growth. But understanding that not everyone is gonna like it, is part of that growth….

    You can’t do TRUE art with the intention of pleasing everyone, a hard lesson learned for me. True art touches those it’s MEANT to touch….

    So if this album doesn’t do as well as my others, it’s not a failure or a loss. It’s art for those who get it and opportunity to grow…

    To those that love LIBRA SCALE, thank you for your love. To those that don’t, thank you for your opinion.

    The backlash from Ne-yo’s tweets prompted him to explain why he was so salty. He discusses his intentions in a recent interview: Continue Reading…

    “Digitally Dead” Celebs Resurrected by Billionaire Donation…

    Dec, 7 2010 | Written by ATLien

    The morbid AIDs campaign spear headed by Alicia Keys known as “Digital Death” has finally come to an end.

    A mystery man donated half a milli to save face and bought back the lives of all the celebs before they further embarrassed themselves.

    The mystery man who donated half-a-million bucks to an AIDS charity and brought Alicia Keys, Lady Gaga and a ton of other celebs back to life (on Twitter) — has been revealed … as a BILLIONAIRE.

    TMZ has learned … pharmaceutical mogul Stewart Rahr donated roughly $500,000 earlier today to the Digital Death campaign … which benefits the Keep a Child Alive organization.

    Rahr’s donation freed up scores of celebs who pledged to go silent on their social media sites until the group raised $1 million.

    Several stars, including Keys, her hubby Swizz Beatz, Usher Raymond, Diddy and more logged off on Tuesday, Nov. 30, vowing not to sign back on until $1 million had been raised for the ?Keep A Child Alive? cause.

    Keys and the other celebs were all hoping to be resurrected within 24 hours. But it’s a recession and apparently fans figured their money was useful elsewhere.

    Due to the lack of response, Alicia broke her vow within 18 hours of the launch to beg her followers to donate and her hubby Swizz Beatz followed her lead, even getting salty when fans called him out about it.

    Usher & Diddy didn’t even seem to try… with both tweeting up a storm all weekend long. It’s all over now and we can all look forward to more celebrity faux pas on twitter.

    B2K’s Raz B Reveals More Graphic Details of Chris Stokes Abuse… [VIDEO]

    Nov, 30 2010 | Written by ATLien

    The saga continues. Raz B aka De’mario Thornton is still fighting to be heard. I guess since didn’t get his wish to be heard on Oprah, he’s gonna keep fighting to get his point across online.

    This time, the former B2k member is shedding graphic details about what Chris Stokes made them do behind closed doors.

    In what appears to be another taped phone conversation, Raz B reveals that he and fellow bandmate J-Boog aka Jarell Damonte Houston (who was arrested earlier this year after he was accused of beating his baby mama), were forced to “suck each other off” while Chris Stokes watched and beat his meat… *sigh*

    It’s getting rather redundant, but Raz still deserves to be heard. Peep video of Raz B’s graphic descriptions of what went down in B2k below: Continue Reading…

    1st Photo of Lil Wayne as a Free Man…

    Nov, 4 2010 | Written by ATLien

    This is the first photo of Lil Wayne leaving Riker’s Island this morning a free man.? Fellow blogger KarenCivil snagged a snapshot of a photo from a photographer’s digital camera.

    According to KC:

    In the early hours of Thursday morning, there was word floating around that Lil Wayne would have to wait an additional day to be released due to ?miscalculated? time. Turns out out that was just a rumor because at approximately 8:35 a.m., the Young Money head honco became a free man for the first time in eight months.

    Always with a camera, Scoob Doo managed to snap one of the first pictures of Weezy out of the bing. Expect to see this on the Nino Brown DVD.

    Of course his entire Cash Money/Young Money crew was there to welcome him to freedom, including Birdman and YM freshman Bow Wow. Let the mixtapes begin…

    Are Gucci Mane & Scrappy Beefing Over Diamond?

    Jul, 26 2010 | Written by ATLien

    Word on the street is that Gucci Mane and Lil Scrappy are beefing. The two are said to have had a heated exchange last weekend at a local Atlanta club with Gucci getting the best of the fight.

    I’d heard about the scuffle but quickly dismissed it as hearsay. After all, Gucci was just released from jail a few months ago. The last thing he needs is another stupid charge. But after a quick search of the net, I found in a random message board where a few witnesses were inquiring about what caused the tension between the two:

    Last night Gucci had a party at Velvet room and him and Scrappy was arguing in VIP and all of a sudden gucci slapped him so hard and scrappy didnt do shit. Anybody know the full story or the reason behind this? i dont care if im scared of you or not you are not going to bitch-slap me and get away with it. Lil Scrappy is a hoe for that.

    Inquiring minds wanna know. So I kept digging and after a bit of inquiring, I found out that the scuffle was over what else? A chick! And the chick in question is none other than rapper Diamond… Continue Reading…

        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. 👽🛸

        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?
