Paranoia

Why are so many seemingly rational, sane, adults claiming that every successful person in the entertainment industry is a part of the Illuminati, or Boulee or any other nonsense, spooky witches brew, Davinci Code conspiracy group? People got a hold of a bit of information and ran far, far, away with it. My first encouinter with the "idea" was when Jay-Z and Beyonce were under attack. People made references to how many dancers were in the viseo and the positioning of the dancers. Big Daddy Kane had Scoop and Scrap love behind him and there was no mention of the Illuminati. Jay-Z wore all black and so did NWA but I don't remember any talk of it then either.

There have been "preachers" making You Tube videoes pointing out what this means in the video and how it relates to the devil and the secret society. I just wish some of these cats would spend more time learning and teaching the Bible so that when in church, I can learn a story from a bible as opposed to nonsense modern day street stories based on person opinion that generally result in personal financial gain. That same motivation for financial gain would have a grown man making videos about why Nicki Minaj wears colored wigs instead of a video why the building fund still hasn't repaired that air conditioner.

The notion that no one ever has an idea of what they want to to in life, takes the time to put in work and meet the right people at the right time and become successful is not feasable in an irratic mind state. Now, after becoming an entertainer, some of the things that people have to do to maintain their career may be less than upstanding and lack a certain amount of morals and strip one of a bit of dignity, but that is and has always been the nature of the business. The Hollywood starlet sleeping with the director or producer for the role, or songs being stolen to get the next hit has always been a part of the game.

This all comes to me as I'm watching a video where Jadakiss is talking about Lil' B. A comment by someone after the video was something to the effect of the Illuminati making Jadakiss work with Lil' B to stay relevant. "Huh!?" (With a Scooby-Doo voice and a scrunched face). People it's 2011, no secret society that has plans to control the world is making these people do these things. There may possibly some record execs that strongly mentioned it, or Jada might have just wanted to do it for his own personal reasons. The problem with Americans is that we are so gullible and easily convinced that these riduculous conversations keep happening. Someone in a black cloak drop off a few hundred thousnd dollars to do a song at my front door and watch my face be illuminated. And is Lil' B gay? I don't know and really don't care. If so, at least he admitted it. For all of the cats braggin' about how them or their mans n 'nem was "in that place" for so long, what do you think was going on with some of those cats while they were there?


Any way, I few months ago, I posted an article by an artist by the name of Actrite. I had a couple of his old mixtapes and shared a song that I liked. Apparently, through the means of social media and word of mouth, he found out about the article and thanked me for showing love and hit me with the first song from the new mixtape comin soon. It's an intentionally leaked version that is yet to be completed but listen to it and let me know what you think. The link is below.

Does anyone know where in the world The Odd Future came from and how they became sooo hot without the mainstream push? I'll do some research and try to hit you with that the next time around.
