    Darius McCrary Says Marriage to Karrine “Superhead” Steffans is “All A Lie” (Video)

    Aug, 5 2009 | Written by ATLien

    OK..now normally I could care less about Superhead…oops I mean Karrine Steffans and her antics, but when loyal reader SinnamonS sent over a slew of recent videos all dissing the former video vixen, I had to take a peek.

    The first one I watched was Darius McCrary (i.e. Superhead’s hubby) who blatantly denies ever wifing up Karrine. Darius says in the video that the marriage totally fabricated by “that woman” (Karrine?) to sell books.

    I’m actually a believer in the hype. Simply because a hoe turned into a housewife is such a fairy tale in itself….I wanted it all to be true. I wanted Karrine to live happily ever after cooking breakfast and cleaning for her boo just like she’s said on her Twitter.

    I was originally rooting for BowWow but Darius is just as good.

    Well Darius is obviously tired of playing the game and he breaks it down for the world to see. He even accuses Karrine of being abusive to her son and says the child was one of the main reasons he played along. It’s really a sad tale.

    Check out Eddie Winslow…I mean Darius McCrary’s vivid description of how Karrine came to be his play-play wifey below:

    Cry For Help? ~ Michael Jackson’s “Morphine” Song

    Jul, 30 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Michael-Jackson102

    Did Michael Jackson predict his own demise in a song?? ‘Morphine’ from the 1997 album Blood on the Dance Floor: HIStory in the Mix is being tossed around online and the question is being asked did the song actually foreshadow his death and reveal his Demerol addiction? The song starts off with the lyrics “He got flat baby/Kick in the back baby/A heart attack baby/I need your body.” But the verse about morphine substitute Demerol is what is creating a ton of buzz, particularly after rumors have surfaced that Michael had been suffering from drug addiction and abuse. Recent reports that Jackson was injected with the same painkiller just before his death also sparks the controversy surrounding the track.

    Check out the haunting song and lyrics below: Continue Reading…

    True Lies: Tameka Foster Glover Raymond

    Jul, 28 2009 | Written by ATLien

    I’ve been working on a few projects around town and my posts have been few and far between (I’m sorry!). I certainly haven’t been sitting on my hands waiting on Tameka Foster Glover Raymond to issue a response regarding the emailed threat against me. Truth be told, I’ve been advised to seek a restraining order against Usher’s soon to be ex, but decided to let sleeping dogs lie for a while. Being who I am, I figured Meka didn’t need the added drama during all the divorce proceedings, so I just sat still and remained quiet. Unfortunately for her, the drama has continued online and off.

    A reporter by the name of LaShonda Matlock hit me up with a copy of an emailed interview between she and Tameka. In it, Tameka addresses the threats against me and also took time to spew a few untruths. I sometimes wonder if Meka even knows she’s lying. She may be one of those people who actually believe their own tall tales. Whatever the case may be, I’m here to tell you that the “interview” is totally bogus (no offense LaShonda). It’s only meant to draw attention away from the fact that Tameka is way out of control.

    Those of you who follow me on TWITTER know that after I received the original email from “Margeaux” aka Mrs. Raymond, I hit up my tweeps first before even going in on a post. Not long after I put it out there that I’d gotten a threat, I received another email from “Margeaux” calling me paranoid. The 2nd email is what prompted me to reveal the original threat on the site. Now she’s calling this a “rumor”? Don’t worry. I’m totally documenting this paper trail.

    So…follow me as I break down Tameka’s “interview” in true native ATLien “truth serum” fashion:

    Kandi Burruss Defines B.L.O.G. + A Sneak Peak of ATL Housewives Season 2

    Jul, 27 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Photo by ExclusiveAccess

    Kandi Burruss has decided to dedicate her next album to the internet. Since joining the Real Housewives of Atlanta, Kandi has been the hot topic throughout the blogosphere. All the chatter about her engagement to Ashely “AJ” Jewel combined with all of the gossip about her past romantic relationships on the Atlanta Music scene inspired the title of her upcoming album, “B.L.O.G.” Which means…B*tches Love Online Gossip <~~ I LOVE IT!? Kandi discussed the concept of her new album with Essence Magazine where she states:

    “I came up with the concept based on things that were going that were relevant to what’s going on in my life now including the show and what things have been written about me and my fianc?e by bloggers,” she admits. “The whole album isn’t about the show but there are definitely songs inspired from the show like “Fly Above,” and “It Must Be Good.”

    “B.L.O.G.,” which is scheduled for a September release, will also feature “Superwoman,” a duet and anthem for single mothers with Burruss’s dear friend, former Xscape member and T.I.’s fianc?e, Tameka “Tiny” Cottle. Other guest artists include Rick Ross, Gucci Man and Rashieda.

    What perfect timing for a new CD! The 2nd season of The Real Housewives of Atlanta begins next week and Kandi’s first few episodes are said to be quite explosive. Check out a sneak peak of Kandi’s first appearance on the show and also a tour of her home. Video below:

    Spotted: Drake at Atlantic Station…

    Jul, 23 2009 | Written by ATLien

    main-50

    Drizzy Drake was spotted chillin in Atlanta on the deck of a restaurant in Atlantic Station yesterday. It was another beautiful day in the “A” and seeing him was quite a pleasant surprise, especially since someone (and I ain’t saying no names) has “Successful” on repeat three-peat every single time we’re in the car. Yuuup! Anywoo…y’all know I’m collecting “A” pics for my gallery, but when asked to throw the “A” for my photo op, Drake promptly refused stating….“that’s some ole Usher sh*t!“? I couldn’t help but laugh! Like for real. I was about as tickled pink as that wrinkled shirt he was rockin! But he’s right…. peep my header.

    I still love you Drake. Keep grindin… 🙂

        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. 👽🛸

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?
