    Lil Wayne’s hot new protege Shanell is totally blowing everyone away during the America’s Most Wanted tour! Shanell aka SNL (sister of former Danity Kane member D. Woods) is so talented that she’s on tour with heavyweights like Wayne and Young Jeezy without even an album out! She does, however, have a new mixtape coming out soon and is also set to release a full album in 2010. Shanell performed her new song “Play in my Band” onstage and showcased her starpower.

    Drake Takes A Tumble Onstage, Re-injures Knee + Blogs About It

    Aug, 3 2009 | Written by ATLien

    20730654Photo via Twitter

    According to MissInfo:

    Drake and Lil Wayne were performing ?Best I Ever Had? when Drake was moving across the stage and did a spin move?he must have turned his already-injured knee while spinning, because Drake suddenly collapsed on the stage. ?He put his head down because he was in so much pain,? and then 4 guys ran out on the stage and had to carry him off. Lil Wayne was left onstage in a state of confusion.

    Sources say that Weezy then said to the stunned crowd, ?Damn, I knew that n?a?s knee was bad, but I didn?t know it was that bad! I thought he was just in a wheelchair on T.V.? [really?!]

    Then Wayne had to keep the show going, so he performed ?Mrs. Officer,? with Shanell and T. Streets (normally, Drake performs the song with Wayne.), and then ?Every Girl In the World,? again, sans Drake.

    Meanwhile, backstage, paramedics cordoned off a section and were examining the injured star.

    The day after the fall, Wayne announced that Drake would not be performing. “I must let you know, we had a technical difficulty yesterday,” Wayne said of Drake’s status. “The n—a fell.” Weezy went on to say Drake injured yet another ligament in his leg. “He goes in surgery tomorrow,” Wayne said. “This is for my n—a Drake.”

    Wayne also asked the audience to pray for his friend. Organizers for the tour have not put out a statement yet about Drake’s tour status, but Drizzy did tweet Miss Info after the fall: “All is well … On the bus laying down … Getting surgery this week but I’m walking. Thank my whole YM family for the help. Lion Hearts!” (source)

    Drake recently took to his blog to pour out his heart to his fans about the incident.? Check out what he had to say below: Continue Reading…

    Lil Wayne’s Ex Defends His BET Awards Performance

    Jul, 10 2009 | Written by ATLien

    toya-OMG500Spotted @ SandraRose

    Lil Wayne’s Ex recently addressed his controversial BET Awards show performance where he performed “Every Girl” while his daughter and other underaged girls danced onstage:

    I Antonia ? Toya? Carter have been disturbed but silent about the recent performance that took place at the BET awards, which including my only child Reginae Carter and her friends joining her father Lil Wayne on stage while he performed his new single ?Every Girl?. I will be the first to admit that the father and daughter relationship should not have been reunited on stage for any particular reason while this song was being performed.

    Wayne is a very loving, caring, and devoted father and I truly feel that the act was unintentional due to the fact that he was trying to make his little girl happy by letting her be on stage with her father. Once again, I do not of any degree think it was a wise decision and I truly do apologize to all that this may offended and most importantly the children that watched this performance. I feel we all have learned a lot from this situation and pray that the viewers will allow these children to move forward with their lives and not held accountable because they are innocent.

    Spotted ~ Nivea’s Baby Bump

    Jul, 9 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Spotted @ KiddUNot

    KodakBoi spotted the Nivea (aka Lil Wayne Baby Mama #5 or is it #4? I’ve lost count) at an artist’s showcase Tuesday night in Atlanta. KodakBoi states that although Nivea isn’t about to pop she is definitely preggers. So add her to the list:

    Nivea, who had a hit back in 2002 with her song ‘Don’t Mess With My Man,’ held an event last night in Atlanta. Hosted by MumsFP, the R&B songstress took part in what she dubbed as the “BoomBoomRoom,” where local, unsigned artist showcase their talent.

    You guys can lay the pregnancy rumors to rest–tho she’s not ready to pop, I definitely confirmed last night that singer Nivea is pregnant and well….


    If someone sends me a pic of Lauren and Nivea together with Lil Wayne in the middle, my life will be complete…

    New-New’s Baby Bump

    Jul, 7 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Lauren London

    Photo via Twitter

    Lauren London aka Lil Wayne’s Baby Mama #3 (or is it #4….I lost count) was spotted at Diddy’s All-White Party over the holiday weekend. This is the first picture confirming all the baby rumors. Lauren became an honorary ATLien once she appeared in ATL and you all recall that her character “New-New” always rocked the NEW sh*t. Well Lauren’s definitely rocking that pregnant belly like nobody’s business!? I give her about two months before she drops that load. Oh…and by the way, she’s having a boy.? I wonder what Nivea’s having…

        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. 👽🛸

        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?
