Recently, I was awakened my a slew of phone calls after AOL Black Voices columnist, Jawn Murray mentioned the emailed threats I’ve been receiving during his gossip segment on The Tom Joyner Morning Show.? I finally got a chance to listen to it online and almost fell out of my chair when I realized he said my REAL government name on air.? I ain’t mad though. Those of you who know me know I ain’t never hid my true identity.

    In case you missed it, check out what Jawn had to say about it below:

    Usher: “That b*tch is crazy…”

    Dayum Ursh…now I know how you feel:

    From: Margeaux Taylor <[email protected]>
    To: [email protected]
    Date: Tue, Jul 14, 2009 at 9:52 PM
    Subject: Tameka Raymond – Your Death Threat

    To Michelle Williams aka Absurd bitch azz Alien.?Your obsession with Tameka must weigh heavy on your already chunky azz.?You’re so desperate you pay actual money to try to find case files from 20 years ago which possess no relevance to anything but your Schizophrenia. You have all your facts wrong, which totally discredits anything you say.?Tameka’s not going to court tomorrow,?no DNA Paternity Test ever requested (check the legal papers which you’re so good at finding), she was never involved w/ welfare fraud and you my dear seem to have a major crush on Usher.? I?can see you in line with the rest of the groupies just salivating to suck his?dick but bashing Tameka won’t help your chances.? Her azz is about to be PAID shopping at Chanel, Gucci and Prada while you can’t even?find an?advertiser for your miniscule local blog besides Super 8 Motels LOL. You better watch your back in Atlanta. You are on the list for a serious beat down. I know what you look like now.
    You mean I’ve got death threats now?!?? From Tameka Foster Glover Raymond….oops I mean Margeaux. WTF is up with that. Is it really that serious? I normally don’t respond to B.S. but felt like I have to this time. I’ve been holding my tongue for a minute. My response below:

    Usher Sings About ‘Filing Papers’ ~ Tameka’s Ditching Twitter + Will Her Criminal Past Come Back To Haunt Her?

    Jul, 14 2009 | Written by ATLien

    usher-2

    I guess Usher really did plan for his upcoming release, “Monster” to be a strike back at his spouse. Word is…Sean Garrett penned a song for Usher that delves into his current divorce saga. Although the song was bounced around amongst producers way before news of their marital discourse hit the streets, it’s definitely a no-brainer as to what’s about to happen. The currently untitled song is being referred to as “Filing Papers” and it’s about a marriage coming to an end.? Song writing extraordinaire, Sean Garrett explains that he and Usher didn’t even speak about trouble in the singer’s marriage at the time, but he’s known for creating personalized songs for several artists. Sean’s intuition ain’t no joke! He says:

    Let’s say I wrote a record for Usher three or four months ago where I really didn’t have any idea of what he was going through personally. I work really hard at creating records I feel that’s gonna fit like a glove to an artist. Me and Usher have a close relationship; I tend to sort of assist certain artists in giving them a direction, where I think they need to go in their next move. I felt that was the direction we needed to go. I felt that was the question everyone wanted to know: Was [his relationship] good or was it bad? Was it right? Are you happy or you’re not?

    When asked how he felt when he learned about Usher’s divorce, Garrett said:

    “I’m a heavy believer in God. I’m a Pisces. My intuition is crazy. I think that’s healthy in the process for me writing and producing for people. I can feel a person’s vibe without them even saying it. I can read a person’s body language. Maybe it was a sign. Maybe it was a sign of what my man was going through and he needed to get out. Maybe it was something she needed to hear as a wake-up call to her. I don’t know ? their relationship is not my business. But once people hear this record, it’s gonna make their hair raise up.

    Producer Zaytoven speaks to MTV about Usher’s new song

    We all know Usher filed for divorce from Tameka Foster-Raymond last month and they are scheduled to begin proceedings tomorrow (July 15). Funny thing is, Tameka, who’s known to tweet her “A”zz off, has planned a Twitter “FAST” from (7/15- 8/15).? She is totally going to back away from the computer (finally). Seems innocent enough…right? but don’t make those assumptions so fast. Continue Reading…

    Usher Responds to Michael Jackson Loss + Usher/MJ Dance Off Flashback (Video)

    Jun, 26 2009 | Written by ATLien

    usher000x0430x600

    “This loss has deeply saddened me, with a heavy heart I composed this statement. May God cover you Michael. We all lift your name up in prayer. I pray for the entire JACKSON family particularly Michael?s mother and all his fans that loved him so much. I would not be the artist, performer, and philanthropist I am today without the influence of Michael. I have great admiration and respect for Him and I?m so thankful I had the opportunity to meet and perform with such a great entertainer In so many ways he transcended culture. He broke barriers, he changed radio formats! With music, he made it possible for people like Oprah Winfrey and Barack Obama to impact the mainstream world. His legacy is unparalleled Michael Jackson will never be forgotten.? ~ Usher via Twitter

        Kandi Burruss filed an amended complaint after Tod Kandi Burruss filed an amended complaint after Todd’s attorney called her out for procedural errors. She’s now asking for primary physical custody of the kids, and basically saying Bravo’s uncut footage should be subpoenaed too 👀

This ain’t reality TV — it’s real life, and it’s getting messy QUICK. And if Todd thought he was gon’ walk off with the kids? Kandi said: “Nah, I want it all.”

        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”? 🤔

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. 👽🛸
