  • “Digitally Dead” Celebs Resurrected by Billionaire Donation…

    Dec, 7 2010 | Written by ATLien

    The morbid AIDs campaign spear headed by Alicia Keys known as “Digital Death” has finally come to an end.

    A mystery man donated half a milli to save face and bought back the lives of all the celebs before they further embarrassed themselves.

    The mystery man who donated half-a-million bucks to an AIDS charity and brought Alicia Keys, Lady Gaga and a ton of other celebs back to life (on Twitter) — has been revealed … as a BILLIONAIRE.

    TMZ has learned … pharmaceutical mogul Stewart Rahr donated roughly $500,000 earlier today to the Digital Death campaign … which benefits the Keep a Child Alive organization.

    Rahr’s donation freed up scores of celebs who pledged to go silent on their social media sites until the group raised $1 million.

    Several stars, including Keys, her hubby Swizz Beatz, Usher Raymond, Diddy and more logged off on Tuesday, Nov. 30, vowing not to sign back on until $1 million had been raised for the ?Keep A Child Alive? cause.

    Keys and the other celebs were all hoping to be resurrected within 24 hours. But it’s a recession and apparently fans figured their money was useful elsewhere.

    Due to the lack of response, Alicia broke her vow within 18 hours of the launch to beg her followers to donate and her hubby Swizz Beatz followed her lead, even getting salty when fans called him out about it.

    Usher & Diddy didn’t even seem to try… with both tweeting up a storm all weekend long. It’s all over now and we can all look forward to more celebrity faux pas on twitter.

    Swizz Beatz: New Wife, New Baby, New Lawsuit…

    Oct, 22 2010 | Written by ATLien

    Swizz Beatz has a beautiful new wife – Alicia Keys – who just had a bouncing baby boy last week. And now he has a lawsuit to go with his new family.

    [READ: Spotted: Alicia Keys Swizz Beatz & Baby Egypt ]

    According to TMZ, Swizzy is accused of being a shady business man. The super producer is being sued by a man who claims he wrote Cassidy’s song “My Drink & My Two Step.”

    The suit claims Swizz broke him off a lil bit (a very lil bit), while he and Cassidy pocketed the lion’s share of the dough from the hit song.

    The songwriter in question — named Antwann Frost — filed the lawsuit two days ago … claiming Swizz hit him up in 2007 to help put together a hit single for rapper Cassidy’s then incomplete album.

    According to the docs — obtained by TMZ — Swizz assembled the “drum patterns” and Frost created “all of the other original musical components that shaped and defined” the track that would become a chart-topping hit … spawning remixes by Kanye West, Ne-Yo, and Chingy.

    The song was released soon after — at which point, Frost claims, Swizz lowballed him with a $5,000 cash offer and 5% ownership of the song … while Swizz and Cassidy got the bulk share.

    Frost rejected the offer … and now dude’s suing for $1,500,000 — claiming he deserves equal partnership in the song with Swizz and Cass. No word yet from Camp Swizz.

        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 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?
