    Chris Brown didn’t have anything else to do last night, so he hit up his twitter account to touch base with a few of his fans.? Just as Jay-Z took to the stage during the 2009 American Music Awards to accept his award for Favorite Hip Hop Male Artist, Chris twittered “Cornball” during the speech. Coincidence? I think not. Especially since the “MechanicalDummy” deleted the tweet and then spent the rest of the night tryna explain it!

    OH GOD! now everyone thinking im callin homie a cornball. I DELETED IT SO YALL WOULDNT BLOW IT OUT PROPORTION? RELAX Sun Nov 22

    Audio ~ Rihanna Admits She Misses Chris Brown on Atlanta’s Q100

    Nov, 20 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Rihanna 2

    Rihanna was interviewed on The Bert Show on Atlanta’s Q100 radio recently where she revealed she still has a soft spot for Chris Brown. During the interview, Rih Rih tells the host that she has no regrets regarding her interview with Diane Sawyer, and that she was being totally honest during their sit down. When asked if she misses Chris Brown, Rihanna first answers, ?sometimes?, then she gave a definitive ?yes?.? She also admits that listening to his songs reminds her of good times.

    “When it comes on the radio I don’t frown or turn it off, I just … listen. I like his music,” she said. “I’ve gotten over [Chris] but there are definitely constant reminders, and a lot of that comes from listening to his songs.”

    Rihanna also states she’s not dating actor Tristan Wild from 90210. She does admit that she is very ?flirty?, but not dating anyone right now. Check out the audio below: Continue Reading…

    Video Battle: Rihanna’s “Russian Roulette” vs. Chris Brown’s “Crawl”

    Nov, 16 2009 | Written by ATLien

    RIhanna & Chris Brown (Face Off)

    I dunno bout you guys, but am I the only one who thinks all of this Chris Brown/Rihanna ish is just marketing hype? It’s too much. The embattled lovebirds who fought it out in that Lamborghini on Grammy night are now fighting it out in the media.? She’s appeared on ABC’s 20/20 spilling the tea while he’s appeared on Larry King Live,? MTV and most recently The Wendy Williams show, where he said he felt SHE was telling too much. *sigh*

    Both are under scrutiny as Chris keeps apologizing over and over and over again while Rihanna’s first ever interview since the incident has fans questioning the timing since she has an album to promote. I’m sure it’s also no coincidence that both videos are premiered on the same day. There’s a ton of symbolism in both vids and people are going to pick em apart from here to eternity. I can almost picture Rihanna & Chris cuddled up together somewhere chillin, eating Crunch & Munch and laughing at all the hype.

    Watch both Rihanna’s “Russian Roulette” video + Chris Brown’s “Crawl” premiere on Wendy Williams (w/interview) below: Continue Reading…

    Rihanna vs. Chris Brown ~ Battle of the TV Interviews (FULL VIDEOS)

    Nov, 7 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Rihanna and Chris Brown each hit national television last night in what I called a “Battle” of sorts. Rihanna’s 20/20 interview with Diane Sawyer finally aired in it’s entirety and if you’ve seen the previous GMA clips, you’ve basically seen it all. Rihanna does, however, touch on why she felt the need to return to Chris’ side so soon after the beat down and why she eventually decided it was best to let the relationship go. I honestly felt that she was being sincere, although the timing of the interview has been questioned, specifically in light of Rih-Rih’s new album dropping soon.

    Rihanna admits she still has feelings for Chris but says that she’s “annoyed” that he still lives in her heart. Chris, in his MTV interview with Sway, also says that he still cares for Rihanna and admits that he’s made some poor choices these past few months since the attack. He attempts to address some of the criticisms he’s received over his twittering habits and how people perceive him as not taking his sentence seriously. MTV also brings in Dr. Callahan ,who has also appeared on Oprah, to give a bit of insight on dating/domestic abuse.

    You can watch both interviews in their entirety below and judge for yourself. Pick a side…any side! Rihanna v. Chris Brown’s Battle of the TV Interviews below: Continue Reading…

    Rihanna on GMA (Part 2) ~ “He Had No Soul In His Eyes…”

    Nov, 6 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Rihanna on GMA

    Snippet number two of Rihanna‘s 20/20 interview with Dianne Sawyer aired on Good Morning America this morning. In this clip, Rihanna discusses the actual beating incident in the car and gives details about how the fight actually started.? As detailed in the police report, Rihanna admits to reading the text messages on Chris Brown’s phone from another girl. An argument ensued and… well… you know the rest.

    “It escalated to him being violent towards me and… it was ugly.” She later described the look in Brown’s eyes as he beat her, “All I kept thinking the whole time was ‘when is it going to stop? when is it going to stop?’ He had no soul in his eyes. Just blank. He was clearly blacked out. There was no person when I looked at him.”

        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?
