  • No Money? Mo Problems! Stripper Sues Jermaine Dupri Over Child Support…

    May, 11 2011 | Written by ATLien

    When it rains it pours and it’s lookin like a monsoon for po Jermaine Dupri!

    Access Atlanta revealed yesterday that the SoSo Def label head has been in and out of court since January 26, 2011 battling a child support case against filed by Sariai Jones, a former Magic City stripper who danced under the name ?Obsession?.

    After obtaining a verifying JD’s paternity, a judge ordered Dupri, 38, to pay the former stripper $2,500 per month in child support for her 7-month old daughter.

    [Sidebar: 7 months huh? I guess we know now why Janet jetted…]

    The judge also ordered JD to pay Jones an additional $7,500 based on the positive results of the paternity test.

    As you know, Jermaine just barely avoided foreclosure of his Atlanta home earlier this month, WSB-TV also revealed that Dupri owes over $493,000 in back taxes for 2007…. plus over $12,000 in property taxes on the Fayetteville home where his mother currently resides.

    [READ: SoSo In Debt? Jermaine Dupri Avoids Foreclosure of Atlanta Mansion…]

    According to SandraRose, Dupri?s longtime friend, local club owner Alex Gidewon, attempted to help him out a bit last year by hiring Dupri to deejay at the Gold Room.

    Durpri is rumored to be paid up to $10,000 for deejaying gigs around the country.

    May, 3 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Clifford “T.I.” Harris and his wife, Tameka “Tiny” Cottle-Harris are normally inseparable, but Tip’s 11 month incarceration for federal probation violation kinda put a halt to all that.

    Tiny was recently scheduled to make a trek down to Arkansas to see Tip, aka Inmate #59458-019, but she was advised by the prison officials that she had to wait to see her boo… a few MONTHS!

    The old school MC/former reality show star posed for the classic mug shot above Friday night in Las Vegas, where he is currently involved in opening a Vegas branch of his fried chicken chain.

    Flav was stopped by LVPD authorities for a moving violation but once they ran his information, it was determined he was a wanted man. A very VERY wanted man…? *sigh*

    Lawsuit Blames Beyonce for 70 Unemployed Workers…

    Apr, 28 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Beyonce and Jay-Z recently left Paris after a few days of wedded bliss, but it’s back to business and drama for the “Bootylicious” beauty after a lawsuit was against her filed this week.

    Gate Five LLC is calling Beyonce the Grinch who “destroyed” its business and “drove 70 people into unemployment” just one week prior to Christmas.

    According to the NYPost, a lawsuit filed in Manhattan Supreme Court claims Mrs. Carter is to blame for lost revenue and several jobs after she abruptly bailed out of a deal to commercialize the video game Starpower: Beyonc?.

    In the suit, Gate Five claims it lost $6.7 million dollars in investment money as well as over $100 million in profits they would have earned had the deal survived.

    “Her actions were so unscrupulous that her then-manager [who is also her dad] renounced them, while a senior executive of the company…condemned her conduct as ‘morally reprehensible’ in an email he sent to one of her talent agents,” the suit says.

    No word from Beyonc? or her camp on the pending legal issue.

    Freeman was among four arrested in the 4 a.m. Saturday incident, according to her attorney Bobby Aniekwu, he is representing three of the women in what he considers a case of “excessive force.”

    ?He just attacked me,? Freeman said, ?And I said, ?What did I do? What did I do? I didn?t do anything.?

    ?I?m sitting with my friends, and I?m talking to the Darth Vadar guys, just on a casual conversation … and then he just out of nowhere came to me, out of all of the people, came to me,? she said later.

    ?I didn?t touch this man, never, not once,? she said. ?I didn?t pay him any attention what he had on. I was just looking at his face because he was yelling.?

    Bishop Eddie Long Wants His Accusers to Know? [VIDEO]

    Apr, 25 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Easter Sunday 2011, Bishop Eddie long rocked his cream and lavender muscle vest suit and confidently preached a cryptic message to the four men who filed lawsuits accusing him of sexual coercion.

    During New Birth Missionary Baptist church’s annual Easter service, the “Bishop” addressed his congregation with the standard sermon about Jesus rising from the dead for our sins, but throughout his delivery Long made a point of sending a few subliminals to his accusers:

    You ain’t messin? with me. I shall rise again and I ain’t going through this… Continue Reading…

        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?
