    Black Couple Facebook StraightFromTheA

    If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a thousand times… Facebook is the devil when it comes to relationships!

    [FLASBHACK: Should There Be a ‘Rulebook’ on Facebook Relationship Etiquette?]

    Now a new study claims to prove that married people who engage in social media may be more prone to relationship issues and are more likely to divorce due to the use of sites like Facebook, Instagram & Twitter.

    Hmmm…. maybe it’s time to step away from your online life and deal with the ‘real world’…

    REFLECTIONS: Chilli of TLC Addresses The Sexual ‘Double Standards’ of Dating Younger…

    Jul, 14 2014 | Written by ATLien

    NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 17:  Singer Usher with girlfriend/singer Rozonda Thomas (Chili from TLC) attend the Diesel StyleLab Spring/Summer 2004 Fashion Show during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week at Bryant Park September 17, 2003 in New York City.  (Photo by Evan Agostini/Getty Images)

    Rozanda ‘Chilli’ Thomas of TLC missed out on all the ‘free press’ her bandmate Tionne ‘T-Boz’ Watkins got recently with that whole Rihanna beef jazz.

    [READ: T-Boz of TLC Addresses Rihanna’s Twitter Beef (VIDEO)]

    …so now it seems Chilli is drumming up a bit of? ‘free press’ of her own.

    Thomas hit the net recently to rant about ‘double standards’ in dating.? She’s clearly feeling some kinda way about how men these days get off easy for dating teens while she caught mad flack when she did it.

    Yeah…? we all know it’s been years since Chilli robbed the cradle by dating Usher, but apparently she wants the world to know how unfairly she was treated by the masses for dating someone 15 years her junior.

    FOR DISCUSSION: Should Teachers Be ‘Forced’ To Wear Underwear To Work?

    May, 28 2014 | Written by ATLien

    There are schools around the country that are apparently having more issues with teachers than they are with students these days.

    [READ: Mugshot Mania: Teacher Jailed For Giving ‘Birthday Lap Dance’ (VIDEO)]

    While Atlanta may have a few teachers with foul language running about (click HERE if you missed that), it seems Lil Rock, Arkansas has a much bigger issue and they’ve decided to give their teachers a stricter dress code because of it.

    “It” being underwear… or the lack of thereof.

    FOR DISCUSSION: Thick vs. Curvy? Ex-Atlanta Falcon Ray Edwards Does ‘Plus Size’ Pictorial… [PHOTOS]

    Oct, 10 2013 | Written by ATLien

    Allow me to reintroduce myself my name is HOV… ATLien! 🙂

    To date, I’ve been called fat, thick, chunky, curvy…. whatever name you can think of to describe anything but thin, I’ve been referred to online and off but I personally prefer to describe my assets as ‘divalicious’ because I’m so sweet (insert side-eye).

    When describing your size, what term do?YOU?prefer??PHAT Pretty Hot and Tempting

    [Sidebar: Shoutout to?Dramatic Weight Loss! 🙂 ]

    According to a new poll, plus size women are no longer ‘fat’ or even ‘thick,’ but prefer the term ‘curvy’ when describing their assets.

    The national survey, which polled 1,000 women sizes 14 and up, found that?28 percent prefer the term “curvy.”?After that, respondents were split: 25 percent said they prefer “plus-size” and 25 percent would prefer “full-figured.”

    That brings me to the meat and potatoes of this post (I’m hungry and thinking of steak right now BTW!), former Atlanta Falcons defensive end Ray Edwards apparently likes ’em thick curvy and he recently participated in a ‘plus size’ photoshoot where he bared his assets alongside a curvy model.

    For Discussion: Does Today’s Hip-Hop Culture Compel Youths To ‘Pour It Up’?

    As we all settle back into our random routines and reflect on yet another Labor Day holiday gone past, it seems there’s been some funny business going on that caught my attention.Jeezy Avion Patron

    It’s no big secret that companies tap artists to inject product placement ideas into some music… ?But I’m sure nobody knew how far the advertisement goes –particularly in hip-hop.

    [RANDOM: WTF?!? Dr. Diagnoses Woman with ‘Ghetto Booty’ (PHOTOS)]

    Today’s “hit” songs are nothing more than highly evolved advertisements that may be brainwashing you to drink, smoke or partake in activity’s unbecoming of your spirit, and your powerless to stop it.

    Research has revealed a very disturbing new trend in the music business.

        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?
