    ATL Flashback ~ Big Rube’s “Love’s Deceit”

    Aug, 21 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Did y’all even pay attention to the words of Big Rube’s “Love’s Deceit” poem while you were drooling over T.I. (or Lauren London)? Peep game:

    Pleasure turns to the pain of lessons learned from the strain of the questions burned in my brain about whether love is humane in its touch
    These thoughts are like salmon swimming upstream in the tears of your deceit
    Fighting a current hurt that kills more than is created by the chaos of our intertwined emotions
    Chaotic because the anchor of Eros? arrow has been plucked from the vessel of my undying infatuation
    Separation not as simple as the distance between us
    My mind no longer possessed by the demons that had been the overseers of my enslavement to your lies
    The seeds of these lies rooted so deeply they?ve cracked the foundation of what we once shared
    Allowing the faith in us I had sealed inside to gush out like a river
    Ripping the image of our future together from my thoughts as violently and as brutally as if it were a child being taken from its mothers arms
    I?m left surrounded in darkness but I refuse to be swallowed by it
    My loneliness like night air; invisible to the eye obvious to the touch, in its cold uncomfortable ness
    Yet If I could do all over again I?d do it in the same skin I?m in
    To lay down and let love die, just stay down and let love lie
    No, no, no, no, not I
    I?ll stay around and let love fly
    Even though I?ve seen its darkest form; deceit
    Nothing else could tastes this warm or feel this sweet

    The “A” Pod ~ Two New Songs from BlackOwned C-Bone

    Jul, 23 2009 | Written by ATLien

    c-bone

    BlackOwned C-Bone aka Corey Andrews was first introduced to the mainstream rap game through his appearance on the Dungeon Family “Even in Darkness” album on the curtains closing track, “DF 2nd Generation” alongside Killer Mike, Slimm Calhoun and many more.? C-Bone continued to gain exposure through his numerous platinum selling guest appearances such as Purple Ribbon’s “Kriptonite”, OutKast’s “Gangsta Shit”, Big Boi’s “Tomb of the Boom” Yung Joc’s “Dope Boy Magic” and many more.

    In addition to his solo status, C-Bone is also a member of the rap group KonKrete alongside Lil Brotha (Big Boi’s younger brother) and Supa Nate. He also serves as Big Boi’s hype man (Click Here to see he & Big Boi in action LIVE) and is a member of Twan’s Purple Ribbon imprint.

    Blackowned C-Bone is currently working on his upcoming mixtape titled “The Strong Pack” and two singles from the project: “Star Wars” and “When the Beat Drop” have been circulating the net. You know it’s a hot record, because Big Boi himself picked it out to be the next single!

    The Dungeon Family Vibe Spread ~ RIP Vibe Magazine

    Jul, 9 2009 | Written by ATLien

    20090703-vibe1

    Spotted @ RapRadar

    Peep Part I of the “The Untold Story of The Dungeon Family” which is featured in Vibe’s final issue. Will there be a Part II? Who knows… since Vibe Magazine folded and abruptly closed it’s doors a few weeks ago, it all falls on the shoulders of it’s founding father, Quincy Jones, who’s making an effort to save it:

    “I’m trying to buy my magazine back now,” Jones told EbonyJet.com on Tuesday, according to an article posted on the Web site.

    Vibe, one of the best-selling hip-hop magazines in the country, shut down on Tuesday. Its chief executive officer, Steve Aaron, said the magazine has a debt of “several millions of dollars” and also faced a declining market and decreased advertising revenue.

    Jones, a music producer, said he envisioned an online-only future for Vibe. “They just messed my magazine all up, but I’m gonna get it back,” he said.

    Jones established the magazine in 1993. It had a circulation of about 600,000, according to Aaron.

    The closure eliminates jobs for all 48 staff members, Aaron said. The issue currently on newsstands, featuring Eminem on the cover, is Vibe’s last. (Source)

    I’d do Part II my dayum self if I thought I could get all those knee-grows in one place again. Hmmm…. that’s a project I may have to work on.

        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?
