  • Tameka Raymond Reveals Her Sensitive Side (And All 5 Kids!)… [PHOTOS]

    Jan, 11 2012 | Written by ATLien

    ?Tameka Raymond was featured in an Uptown Magazine exclusive interview where she speaks about motherhood, her public custody battle, and managing relationships as a single mother.

    According to Meka, it was Usher who initially filed for sole custody of their kids in January 2011.

    Nine months later, Tameka filed for sole custody as a counteraction, which sparked that whole drug test battle between she and her ex.

    As far as what prompted Usher to seek full custody of his boys from their mother, Tameka believes its his way of trying to control her.

    He is a man very accustomed to having his way.

    This has nothing to do with how I parent. Trust me, I never will have a desire to keep a man away from his kids. I am not June Cleaver or head of the PTA, but I know I am a good mother.

    Tameka, who’s divorce from her R&B superstar hubby was finalized back in 2009, also speaks about enjoying the single life as a single mother and what she is searching for in a potential mate.

    Dec, 3 2011 | Written by ATLien

    All this legal mumbo jumbo is taking a toll on Usher Raymond‘s ex-wife, Tameka Foster Glover Raymond, so much so, that she decided to hit the tweets to defend all of the negative news that’s been hitting the net this week.

    In response to my most recent post about Usher taking too long to submit to a drug test, Tameka responded to me via Twitter, stating…

    TFGR also went on the reveal that while the net has been buzzing about her starting all the legal child support/custody drama over a Saks 5th Avenue card, when in fact, it was actually USHER who initiated everything.

    Hmmmm…. this is getting juicier by the day!

    And just so I won’t be accused of being less than charitable this season, Tameka Foster Glover Raymond wants everyone to know… Continue Reading…

    Raymond vs. Raymond 2011: Tameka Says Usher is Taking Way Too Long to P** in the Cup…

    Dec, 3 2011 | Written by ATLien

    The saga continues in Raymond vs. Raymond 2011!

    Usher Raymond and his ex-wife Tameka Foster Glover Raymond are currently battling it out in court over issues involving custody of their two young sons, Usher V (3) and Navyid (2).

    A few days ago it was revealed that Tameka had accused Usher of being a druggy and requested that Usher submit to a court ordered drug test.

    Well apparently is taking Usher a bit too long to submit his bodily fluids to the court for testing and Tameka thinks he may be stalling to get his system clean enough to pass the test.

        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?
