  • Legal Issues Abound for Young Joc Surrounding Former BadBoy Contract…

    Jan, 19 2012 | Written by ATLien

    Seems like it was just yesterday that Yung Joc‘s Atlanta studio was robbed at gunpoint and now he’s facing a different kind of battle.

    Yung Joc and Block Enterprises are currently being sued by an Atlanta music company claiming legal control over the rapper?s entire music career!

    Diddy booted Joc from Bad Boy records several years ago, after the rapper, along with Block Enterprises were alleged to have failed their contractual agreement by refusing to fork over royalties and other fees they agreed upon.

    It was rumored that Diddy blackballed Joc over the matter after Joc chose to sue Bad Boy. Fast forward through 5 years and a FREE Grind Flu mixtape, and you’ll find that the Bad Boy bug just won’t go away for Joc!

    Super Producer Nitti Beatz’ Birthday Bash ~ 8Ball, Yung Joc, NFL Ballers & More… [PHOTOS]

    Jan, 26 2011 | Written by ATLien

    It was a hometown celebration as Super Producer Nitti Beatz was honored with a birthday bash last Friday (January 21, 2011) at Atlanta’s Cream Ultra Lounge.

    This event, which doubled as Cream’s grand opening affair, was hosted by Young Joc; super-producer Bangledesh, Robert Mathis and Philip Wheeler of the Indianapolis Colts, and Jerious Norwood of the Atlanta Falcons.

    Nitti and his crew totally rocked the spot, with just about everybody who’s ever been touched by a Nitti beat rocking the mic. Dorrough rocked? “Ice Cream Paint Job,” 8Ball performed the hit “DJ Bring it Back,” and Joc (who has just about cornered the market on Nitti Beats) rocked the crowd as well.

    The “A” Team was in full effect, posted up in the back of the V.I.P. taking it all in. 8Ball & MJG are my personal favs so I was in heaven! Not to mention we ended up in the NFL corner with Roddy White and nem…

    RazB & Ricky Romance Experience an Old School ATL Beatdown… [VIDEO]

    Jan, 20 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Former B2K boy bander Raz B and his brother Ricky Romance were allegedly roughed up and kicked out of an Atlanta club during the Salute the DJs event and it was all caught on tape!

    Witness claim that several security guards jumped on stage to assist in the old school beat down of the two brothers, who have gained fame and national attention after RazB accused their former manager, Chris Stokes, of molesting them as young boys.

    This latest Raz B drama comes on the heels of a hot & heavy twitter beef between Chris Brown and Raz, where Raz B & his brother targeted Chris Brown (who we all know has anger management problems) by insulting him online.

    [READ: Twitter Beef: Chris Brown vs. Raz B (the FULL Battle + What Started it All)]

    In what can only be described as KARMA (especially since Raz is also known for recording conversations without consent *cough* Ray J), RazB and Ricky Romance’s embarrassment was quadrupled as several attendees of the event hit the social networking site Twitter to offer a play by play.

    Check out the word on the “tweets” PLUS the soon to be classic video footage of the “beatdown” under the cut: 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. 👽🛸

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?
