  • In Case You Missed It ~ Chris Brown on Larry King LIVE! (Full Interview)

    Sep, 3 2009 | Written by ATLien

    cbrown3

    I’m sure you saw the 30 second snippet of Chris Brown on Larry King LIVE earlier this week where Chris seemed to be suffering from memory loss, and his subsequent press release where he basically said he “misspoke” when he stated in the clip that he didn’t remember beating Rihanna.? In the statement, Chris said to watch the ENTIRE enterview because the clip was taken out of context,? well the entire interview makes him look way worse!

    With his mommy on his side, Chris never seemed to answer a direct question and his memory of the incident seemed lacking. Mark Garagos, Chris’ attorney stepped in once or twice which basically means Chris was effin up. Whatever the case may be, he was mighty brave to go on the show in the first place, but was he REALLY ready?

    Check out the FULL interview below: Continue Reading…

    Chris Brown Lied…He Remembers the Incident + Larry King LIVE Preview #2

    Sep, 1 2009 | Written by ATLien

    cbrown3

    Chris Brown released a statement regarding the 30 second snippet of his upcoming Larry King LIVE interview that was released recently.? In that interview, Chris is asked if he remembers beating Rihanna and he says “No,” well now he has admitted he lied on his memory:

    ?There have been reports on the internet that I didn?t remember what happened that night with Rihanna. I want to try and set things straight.

    That 30 seconds of the interview they used of me was taken from a one hour interview during which that same question was asked something like 4 or 5 times ? and when you look at the entire interview you will see it is not representative of what I said.

    The first four times ? or how ever many times it was ? I gave the same answer ? which was that I didn?t think it was appropriate for me to talk about what happened that night. I said it was not right for me and it really wasn?t fair to Rihanna. The fifth time ? or whatever it was ? I just misspoke. I was asked, ?Do you remember doing it?? and I said, ?No.?

    Of course I remember what happened. Several times during the interview, my mother said that I came to her right afterwards and told her everything. But it was and still is a blur. And yes, I still can?t believe it happened because it is not me or who I am or is what happened like anything I have ever done before.

    As I have said several times previously, I am ashamed of and sorry for what happened that night and I wish I could relive that moment and change things, but I can?t. I take full responsibility for my actions. What I have to do now is to prove to the world that this was an isolated incident and that is not who I am and I intend to do so by my behavior now and in the future.?

    Another snippet of the upcoming interview under the cut: Continue Reading…

    Larry King Live Preview: ~ Chris Brown Says He Doesn’t Remember Beating Rihanna

    Aug, 31 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Chris Brown15

    In a pre-taped “LIVE” interview, Chris Brown sat down with CNN’s Larry King for a no holds barred interview about the night he beat up Rihanna. Chris, joined in the studio by his mother and his attorney, Mark Garagos, candidly discusses the night that forever changed his life. Craziest thing about this snippet is that Chris states that he doesn’t remember a thing about that fateful night. Is he suffering from blackouts now or is that just something his attorney advised him to say?

    Did Chris Brown Violate Probation Already?

    Aug, 28 2009 | Written by ATLien

    0828_chris_brown_club_00

    Chris Brown was spotted partying the night away just moments after being sentenced in an LA courthouse for assaulting Rihanna. Since the spot that he partied in served alcohol, the 20 year old singer could possibly face charges of violating his 5 year probation order, which clearly states Chris is to “abstain from the use of all alcoholic beverages and stay out of places where they are the chief item of sale.”

    I’m almost positive Chris will get out of this one too but E!News spoke with the Los Angeles Probation Department and they’re not taking this lightly:

    The singer hit the nightspot Guys & Dolls just hours after receiving a probation order in court.

    Los Angeles Probation Department Spokeswoman Kari Webb tells E! News that if Chris Brown broke his probation by being at a “21 and up” establishment, “It won’t be taken lightly.”

    “Any time you break the law, you’re in violation,” Webb told E! News when asked whether being underage in a bar would be a probation violation. “If you break the law, you’re in trouble.”

    John Carr of the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control tells E! News that Guys & Dolls holds a Type 48 liquor license, which makes it a bar or nightclub and not a restaurant. This means that no one under 21 can legally be on the premises unless they have been hired as a performer. Carr also says that even if an underage entertainer is working in a bar or nightclub, they are required by law to stay in an area where no alcohol is being served or consumed.

    While Brown wasn’t seen drinking anything but water, his table ordered 10 bottles of champagne.

    So did Brown break the law?

    What Really Happened: Chris Brown & Rihanna… Blow By Blow

    Aug, 27 2009 | Written by ATLien

    rihanna-and-chris-brown-not-so-tight-anymore

    The officer’s report from the the night Chris Brown beat up Rihanna has hit the net detailing a graphic account of what really went down in that vehicle between the couple. It’s so important to reveal these key facts, since most younger women have been desensitized to the fact that it is NEVER okay for a man to hit a woman. I’ve read countless blog posts and essays about the Chris Brown/Rihanna incident that made my heart bleed. Specifically, ones that lend a sympathetic ear towards Brown and imply that Rihanna shouldn’t have struck him first (or at all).? I’m not by any means stating that Chris Brown shouldn’t be forgiven, but I AM stating the obvious, he beat Rihanna’s “A”zz and that’s not OK under any circumstances. Point..Blank…Period. Chris Brown proved what type of man was that night. Some of my other blogger buddies may beg to differ but I’ll always be on this side of the fence.? Hopefully, his “therapy” and “anger management” classes will aid in changing who he is but it took 19+ years to get him there and it’ll probably take twice as long to change him.

    Sad but true.

    Here’s the full blow by blow: 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 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?
