  • Video Premiere ~ “Yesterday” ~ Toni Braxton ft. Trey Songz

    Nov, 21 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Toni Braxton & Trey Songz

    When THIS PIC of Toni Braxton and Trey Songz locking lips after their 2009 Soul Train Awards performance of “Yesterday” hit, it was like fireworks exploded all across the net.? Especially after it was revealed that Toni and Keri Lewis (Mint Condition) were separating after 8 years of marriage. Now imagine that kiss times 1000 and you’ve got Toni’s steamy new video. Toni teams up with Trey and Brooke Hogan (that’s right…Hulk Hogan’s daughter) to create a hot storyline for her new comeback video. In the vid, the sultry singer discovers her love interest cheating on her with Brooke. As she finds strength to move on, Braxton finds a new boo, all the while exchanging vocals with sexy “A”zz Trey Songz.

    As always, Toni looks AMAZING in the video and changes her look several times. From short hair to long, dark hair to short, Toni worked it! Check out the full video below: Continue Reading…

    Video Battle: Rihanna’s “Russian Roulette” vs. Chris Brown’s “Crawl”

    Nov, 16 2009 | Written by ATLien

    RIhanna & Chris Brown (Face Off)

    I dunno bout you guys, but am I the only one who thinks all of this Chris Brown/Rihanna ish is just marketing hype? It’s too much. The embattled lovebirds who fought it out in that Lamborghini on Grammy night are now fighting it out in the media.? She’s appeared on ABC’s 20/20 spilling the tea while he’s appeared on Larry King Live,? MTV and most recently The Wendy Williams show, where he said he felt SHE was telling too much. *sigh*

    Both are under scrutiny as Chris keeps apologizing over and over and over again while Rihanna’s first ever interview since the incident has fans questioning the timing since she has an album to promote. I’m sure it’s also no coincidence that both videos are premiered on the same day. There’s a ton of symbolism in both vids and people are going to pick em apart from here to eternity. I can almost picture Rihanna & Chris cuddled up together somewhere chillin, eating Crunch & Munch and laughing at all the hype.

    Jermaine Dupri Circa 1986 + “I Need That Girl” ~ Ocean’s 7

    Nov, 16 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Jermaine Dupri Circa 1986

    Some flashback footage of Jermaine Dupri has been circulating the net showing the mogul way before he was famous. JD rocks a highlighted gumby while his mom, Cecelia Mauldin speaks about her rapper/producer son and his talents. In the video, JD (circa 1986) gives a bit of advice to up and coming producers by telling them that it’s a must to have the right people behind them and to never give up. It’s so refreshing to see how hard work and passion pays off.

    Video ~ Before They Were Stars: Jermaine Dupri


    Fast forward 13 years and you’ve got Jermaine (circa 2009) joined by his Ocean’s 7 crew which includes Trey Songz and Nelly. Nelly did a bit of a flashback himself to Country Grammar, as he reprises his singing chops on the chorus of the new joint.

    Video Premiere ~ “Regret” ~ Latoya Luckett ft. Ludacris

    Nov, 12 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Latoya Luckett - Ludacris

    The official video for Latoya Luckett‘s hot song, “Regret” featuring Ludacris, has finally been released. The video follows LeToya as she ends her romance with her boyfriend played by Sean Newman and doesn’t let herself embraced with sadness following the break-up. “It’s about anybody that’s been in a relationship and moved on and the person who mistreated her and broke her heart now all of the sudden realize ‘you’re the best thing that’s ever happened’ and he wanna back.” explains Latoya.

    “Regret” appears in LeToya’s studio album “Lady Love” which hit the market in August. According to AceShowbiz, there were rumors that Capitol Records had refused to run any further promotional effort for the album which peaked at No. 12 on Billboard Hot 200. This issue reportedly prevented “Regret” and its official remix, which adds new beats and lyrics, from being released. It was also rumored that this newly-debuted video was made only because fans sent an online petition to the company. No comment from LeToya and/or Capitol Records regarding the allegations.

    50 Cent Talks Fragrances, Exes & Rick Ross with DJ Greg Street (Video)

    Nov, 10 2009 | Written by ATLien

    50 Cent ~ Macy's AtlantaPhotos by ExclusiveAccess

    Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson hit the streets of Atlanta last weekend to promote his upcoming album as well as his new fragrance, Power by 50 Cent. In an appearance at Macy’s Perimeter Mall location, Fiddy explained, ?For me, power isn?t just something you learn on the street or in the boardroom ? it?s a way of life.?

    50 Cent ~ Macy's Atlanta

    While in town, Jackson also hit up V-103’s Greg Street to give the scoop about his new CD, “Before I self Destruct”.? In his interview, 50 explained the song he wrote about his ex, Shaniqua Tompkins, the mother of his son. He explained why he decided to go hard in the song:

    In 2003 I was all over the place, and my son’s mom I kind of spun her out of control. I take responsibility for that. And my son, he loves her so much that I won’t say anything negative about her anymore. I said what I had to say on the record cause I had those feelings…. this record is more than an album to me, it’s personal.

    In addressing the beef between he and rapper Rick Ross, Fifty explains how Rick has been avoiding his son’s mother, Tia after her association with Fifty. Even revealing how Rick’s son is suffering with no health insurance. He also puts Rick on blast for his other baby mom’s who’s a call girl (the one he had the the sex tape on):

    I mean you can look at him and see he’s not a very attractive man and I can see him as a guy who would have to purchase a lil adult entertainment. But Damn… no condom Rick? That’s nasty… downright nasty!

    Yeah…. he really went there. More photos + the full video of Fiddy’s interview with DJ Greg Street below: 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?
