    Mimi Faust StraightFromtheA 5

    Mimi Faust of Love and Hip Hop Atlanta?has gained quite a bit of popularity with her reality show stint, but she had a rough childhood to say the least.

    [WATCH: Love & Hip Hop Atlanta Season 3 (Episode #1) (Episode #2)]

    If you recall, Faust shared on LHHATL that she ran away from her mother at the age of 13 after her mom converted to Scientology and Mimi didn?t feel comfortable following the new rules. And it was at that time, that Mimi reunited with her estranged father at the age of 26.

    Sadly, Mimi’s Dad passed away recently and she wrote a small tribute to him on Instagram. But what followed was a series of mean text messages from Stevie J and you won’t believe what he said!

    Love & Hip Hop Atlanta has returned to the airwaves and the 2nd episode of the 3 season aired last night (May 7, 2014).LHHATL S3 StraightFromTheA

    Episode 2 piggybacked off of the premiere of the show, which aired just days before on Monday, May 5th. ?Now I don’t know about you, but that’s way too much ratchet-ness for one week!

    On the season premiere two nights earlier, we heard whispers of the infamous sex romp with Nikko Smith, but this episode left nothing to the imagination.

    Episode 2 once again focuses on Mimi Faust’s sex tape saga, its origins and aftermath and while we already know there was no ‘leak’ of Mimi’s sex tape with Nikko Smith, the ‘story’ is that it was “accidentally” released after someone stole Smith’s camera.

    lhha-season-3

    It’s almost that time again…. Love & Hip Hop Atlanta is prepping to return to the airwaves in May for it’s 3rd season and a sneak peak extended super trailer has finally been released.waka flocka flame tammy rivera straightfromthea

    Traci Steel and DJ Baby Drew are officially out and as I exclusively revealed back in August 2013, Atlanta-based rapper Waka Flocka Flame and his fiance, Tammy Rivera, will be joining the cast of the top rated ‘docu-drama.’

    [FLASHBACK: Waka Flocka Confirms LHHATL Appearance… (VIDEO)]

    Last season was crazy but word on the curb is that season 3 could be Mona Scott-Young?s messiest work of art to date as the returning cast will also be bringing their own set of drama filled antics.

    Stevie J. and Joseline Hernandez are still pretending to be married, Benzino has a new lady love (Thi Thi) who is ’bout that life, Rasheeda and her husband Kirk Frost face difficulties as he ‘questions’ the paternity of their son, Karter; Mimi is getting PIMPED by her boyfriend Nikko (I’m sure you’ve heard about their sex tape by now); Scrappy cheats on his new girlfriend Bambi (just like he cheats on everyone else); and Karlie Redd has enlisted rapper Yung Joc to appear as her uninterested love interest (sidebar: isn’t he still married?) since Benzino is paying her dust.

    Yuup…. ratchet season is fast approaching!

        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?
