    Mar, 12 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Video ~ The Atlanta Housewives Hate Bloggers

    Mar, 12 2009 | Written by ATLien

    I caught up with NeNe Leakes and Sheree? Whitfield last weekend at Niecy Nash’s Birthday Bash.? We chopped it up a bit about hatin “A”zzz blogs and bloggers and when confronted, I was almost as quick to back down as Keri Hilson! Seriously though, I really like the Atlanta Housewives and wish them all success. Their real life problems prove that they’re just as prone to regular everyday bullsh*t as the rest of us, the only difference being…theirs is on front street while yours is still a family secret.

    I told NeNe that all press is good press and I meant it. If they ain’t talkin bout you it means you ain’t worth talkin bout….so keep that good gossip coming!? 😆

    Derek Blanks Polishes Diamond

    Mar, 12 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Diamond (formerly of Crime Mob and also known as Lil Scrappy’s boo) recently completed a photoshoot with celebrity photographer Derek Blanks. I don’t know bout you, but I almost thought these were photos of Ciara, which is what took me so long to put em up. <~ I kid…I kid! Anywhoo…Derek is known for his amazing images and he definitely didn’t disappoint this time. He totally turned Diamond’s style game inside out and the photos almost make you forget those awful images of her and Scrappy at church last Easter Sunday. Great job Derek!

    Check out more photos and some behind the scenes video from the shoot below:

    Polow Da Don Involved in Chris Brown/Rihanna “Love Duet”

    Mar, 11 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Word on the street is that Chris Brown and Rihanna are somewhere recording a “makeup” duet together and it’s being produced by Polow Da Don.

    The seemingly reconciled duo have been working on a duet that Brown is hoping to include on his new album, due out later this year, a studio source tells E! News. ?They?ve been working on it together,? the insider says.?

    The E! News story also says that award-winning record producer Polow Da Don, who has worked with Brown in the past, has been ?holed up with them at a Santa Monica recording studio for the past several days.? (Source)

    Apparently, Polow encouraged Chris and Rihanna to record the duet as soon as possible to capitalize on the young musicians’ “heightened emotions.” The song was originally written to be performed by just Rihanna, but Polow felt the track would work even better as a duet. The song is reportedly about a couple overcoming challenges and sources say that the recording sessions have been “very emotional” and that “the feeling in the room was pure love.” I guess their lil fighting situation is a money making opportunity for everyone.? I ain’t mad at all…

    Spotted ~ Andre 3000 at “Class of 3000 LIVE” World Premiere

    Mar, 10 2009 | Written by ATLien


    Check out this cute photo of Andre 3000 I just received in my inbox. Dre looked happy and pleased at the closing of the first Class of 3000 LIVE performance at the Alliance Theatre Friday night. I’ve heard that Big Boi, Janelle Monae and several other ATL celebs were also there to lend support opening night. I still haven’t managed to check it out but a ton of great things have been said about the play. The one disappointment for most is that they were hoping Dre would be taking on the role of Sunny Bridges, but it’s being portrayed by up and coming actor Sinatra Onyewuchi.

    Check out a few more flix from opening night below:

📌 Kandi filed on Nov 24
📌 Todd responded Nov 26
📌 On Dec 1, Kandi amended her petition AND filed a motion to seal the case 😳

Todd says he’s got the kids, Kandi wants the prenup enforced, and she wants to keep it all hush-hush from folks like me… but you know I’m reading it anyway! 🫢 Full video on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/live/zifcIgQVA0A?si=lLU6kMnMMJJdqy_5

        Kandi Burruss filed an amended complaint after Tod Kandi Burruss filed an amended complaint after Todd’s attorney called her out for procedural errors. She’s now asking for primary physical custody of the kids, and basically saying Bravo’s uncut footage should be subpoenaed too 👀

This ain’t reality TV — it’s real life, and it’s getting messy QUICK. And if Todd thought he was gon’ walk off with the kids? Kandi said: “Nah, I want it all.”

        For YEARS y’all invited us into everything — t For YEARS y’all invited us into everything — the love, the prenup, the babies, the fights, the businesses… all of it on reality TV.
But NOW that the divorce is in court, suddenly it’s “seal the documents & protect my privacy”? 🤔

Meanwhile Todd ain’t trying to seal a thing.
So what changed? And what doesn’t she want the public to see?
Let’s talk about it… 👀🍿

        They try to silence strong Black women for telling They try to silence strong Black women for telling the truth — but somehow misogyny gets rewarded with views, clicks, and applause.

What’s even more disturbing? So many women are cheering it on.
At some point, we have to ask: Why is disrespect toward Black women still profitable?

This isn’t entertainment.
This is accountability.

        This was not a “read.” This was an unprovoked, This was not a “read.” This was an unprovoked, problematic rant — and it needed to be called out. Junkie Dineva went after Tamar Braxton’s parents, upbringing, and mental health for no legitimate reason, and that kind of misogyny should never be excused as entertainment.

Going viral for disrespecting Black women is the real issue — and that’s what we’re unpacking on ATLien Live.

        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. 👽🛸
