  • Freedom of Speech Ain’t Free! What Chris Stokes Doesn’t Want You To Know…

    May, 9 2013 | Written by ATLien

    Chris Stokes StraightFromTheA 7

    I started StraightFromTheA back in 2007 as a way to creatively share my thoughts on several topics in urban pop culture and since that time, have had my share of controversy surrounding a few of my opinionated posts… ie the Tameka Raymond saga during she and Usher’s divorce, Nene Leakes’ twitter beef over being outed about her fake divorce, Kim Zolciak’s foul mouthed insults and most recently Sheree Whitfield‘s Chateau Sheree beef.

    [READ: Freedom or Speech ain’t Free! Bloggers Win Against Ex-RHOA in Court… (VIDEO)]

    During one of my soapbox moments, I uttered the phrase ‘freedom of speech ain’t free’ and I’m personally starting to believe that’s a fact.

    As my audience grows, my right to my opinion diminishes and now it’s becoming more evident everyday that when I write things that people don’t like, they will do the most to shut me up.

    There’s a vast array of posts on this site. I’ve collected over 6 years worth of my opinionated thoughts on issues that sometimes were only of interest to me.

    That being said… there are several posts written regarding that whole Raz B/Chris Stokes drama that Stokes apparently doesn’t want any of you to read (again) and he’s been threatening me for years in an attempt to intimidate me to remove them.

    B2K’s Raz B Reveals More Graphic Details of Chris Stokes Abuse… [VIDEO]

    Nov, 30 2010 | Written by ATLien

    The saga continues. Raz B aka De’mario Thornton is still fighting to be heard. I guess since didn’t get his wish to be heard on Oprah, he’s gonna keep fighting to get his point across online.

    This time, the former B2k member is shedding graphic details about what Chris Stokes made them do behind closed doors.

    In what appears to be another taped phone conversation, Raz B reveals that he and fellow bandmate J-Boog aka Jarell Damonte Houston (who was arrested earlier this year after he was accused of beating his baby mama), were forced to “suck each other off” while Chris Stokes watched and beat his meat… *sigh*

    It’s getting rather redundant, but Raz still deserves to be heard. Peep video of Raz B’s graphic descriptions of what went down in B2k below: Continue Reading…

    Raz B’s Brother Says Apology Tape NOT REAL!

    Dec, 28 2007 | Written by ATLien

    Ricky Romance?& Raz B

    Y’all are really killin me!? In the never ending saga of Raz B’s (aka DeMario Thornton) molestation allegations/retraction against Chris Stokes and Marques Houston, Ricky Romace (aka Ricardo Thornton, Raz B’s Brother) has recently been interviewed by TNU (The New Urban).? In what we all know?to be?true, Ricky states that Raz B was threatened and that?his apology video was totally coerced.

    RICKY ROMANCE: I just got off the phone with DeMario (Raz B), and the apology tape is not real! Chris had people force Raz to read a script and coerced him into taking money. I talked to DeMario and the money will be returned. We want this done right. We’re putting this message out there for all of the innocent kids who get abused and are then forced to be silent.


    TNU:
    Rumors have swirled that Raz B was forced by gang members to take back his statements against Chris Stokes. Is this true?

    RICKY ROMANCE: I won’t say names of who it was who came at Raz to take that shit back, but I’ll tell you that it was some street niggaz. That’s all Ican say.

    TNU: Since you released your molestation allegations against Chris Stokes, has there been backlash?

    RICKY ROMANCE: Listen, yes. I’m being followed. Niggaz are threatening my life, but I don’t care. I stand by what I said because it’s the truth. Maybe I’m the only one brave enough to talk, but this has gone on for too long. I just want Chris’s sick child molesting pedophile ass to go to jail. Period.

    TNU: How is Stokes threatening you?

    RICKY ROMANCE: Right now he’s trying to intimidate us. Chris Stokes is very connected. His best friend is the Los Angeles Chief of Police.

    Read the entire interview over at The New Urban.? I told y’all this drama was just beginning to unfold.? Lives are being threatened over this B.S!?

        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?
