Charlamagne Tha God Claims Michael Jackson Was The Only Celebrity That Corporations Took Down

by

You’re probably aware of how the Diddy scandal has either created or revived a lot of conspiracy theories around celebrities, whether they’re responsible for abhorrent things or they were silenced by the industry. However, Charlamagne Tha God doesn’t take these theories very seriously… Except when talking about the King of Pop, that is. “I’ve been hearing that theory about, you know, the corporations,” he began. “Listen, I could be totally wrong. I don’t think that there’s too many people that are important enough for a corporation to want to do all this to. And I really mean this when I say this, and I know that this is a crazy conspiracy theory. There’s only one person I believe in Hollywood who people conspired to actually take down. I’m talking about a mass conspiracy. Anytime they take you down, it’s people conspiring, ‘Cause it’s usually because you did some s**t.

“But I think that there’s one person who they really took down because he had too much power,” Charlamagne continued. “And I believe that person was Michael Jackson. I truly believe that. The reason I believe that is because – you can look into the story. You know, we had Deon Cole on The Breakfast Club the other day. Deon Cole told us the story of how he got high with Paul McCartney, and Paul McCartney told him. Paul McCartney and Michael used to be real cool. Paul was telling Michael, like, ‘Yo, you got to get your business together, you got to get your business right.’ He told him about the publishing game. Michael ended up getting so big that he bought The Beatles’ publishing. The Beatles’ publishing was worth so much that, literally, Sony gave Michael Jackson half of their publishing company just to own The Beatles’ catalog.

Charlamagne Tha God On Michael Jackson Conspiracy

“So whenever you used to see – look it up!” he added. “Whenever you used to see Sony ATV, that was Sony and ATV was Michael Jackson’s publishing company, right? Imagine how powerful a Black man is when he owns a majority of the music industry’s publishing. And, in some cases, was even giving publishing back to some of the artists. He gave Little Richard his publishing back. I don’t know how many people he did that to, but he gave Little Richard his publishing back. Look, in 2016, Sony paid $750 million to acquire Michael Jackson’s – what is that, 50% stake in Sony ATV Music Publishing. A joint venture that Jackson and Sony formed in 1995. This made Sony the sole owner of the world’s largest music publishing company. I believe – this is all conspiracy theory. This is Brilliant Idiots, by the way, we just talking, it’s a podcast.

“I believe that Michael Jackson had too much power in the music industry, had too much control over the most valuable asset in music which is people’s publishing, and I believe they had to take him out because of it,” Charlamagne concluded. “Smear his name, you know, eventually get him up out of here. And 2016, *laughs* they got their bag for way cheaper than they probably would’ve paid if he was still alive. He’s the one person. Motherf***ers talk about how Bill Cosby tried to buy NBC… You know, nah. He’s the one person I believe in entertainment – entertainment, mind you, I said the entertainment industry. Conspiracies happen all the time in other industries that actually really matter. But in the entertainment industry, he’s the one person I believe, actually, they killed his reputation and ultimately killed him.”

Mustard Believes Drake & Gordo Conspired To Ruin His Album Release

by

Mustard was a key figure in the beef between Drake and Kendrick Lamar. Overall, this was due to the fact that he was the producer of “Not Like Us” which has proven to be one of the biggest songs in the world this year. Moreover, the producer appeared in the song’s music video and was even at “The Pop Out.” All of these moves are antagonistic and we’re sure Drake didn’t take too kindly to all of them. Now, however, the famous DJ believes Drake might be out for revenge.

When it was revealed that Mustard was going to sell 18K units first week for Faith Of A Mustard Seed, Drake fans were quick to celebrate. Many felt like this was a flop for Mustard and that he should be ashamed. Subsequently, the producer went online and said that first-week sales were a tool of white supremacy. He also said that Drake is the Malcolm X of White People, which is a pretty hilarious diss when you think about it. In his most recent stream, DJ Akademiks revealed that the producer believes Drake and Gordo attempted to sabotage him.

Mustard With Some Allegations

Essentially, Mustard allegedly believes that Drake told Gordo to drop his album on the same day as him. Drake had two features on the Gordo album and in Mustard’s view, Drake knew this would take some shine away from his project. However, as Akademiks points out, Gordo sold less than FOAMS. Having said that, it is hard to see how the Gordo project may have affected his sales. Either way, it is clear that the Drake and Kendrick beef continues to go deeper and deeper.

Let us know what you think about this theory from the producer, in the comments section down below. Do you believe that Drake conspired with Gordo to drop on the same day as Mustard?

Adam22 Weighs In On Chris Brown & Quavo Conspiracy Theories

by

Adam22 is someone who always looks to weigh in on hot-button issues that are happening in the hip-hop world. For instance, right now, fans are thinking about the ongoing beef between Chris Brown and Quavo. Overall, this has been a wild feud to watch play out. Numerous diss tracks have been released between the two, and it has made for lots of entertainment. For now, however, fans believe that Chris Brown is winning the beef, as his tracks have been a tiny bit more cohesive and scathing.

Recently, there was chatter about the psychological tactics being employed here. For instance, at a recent Quavo show, the crowd was practically empty. It wasn’t looking too good, and fans were a bit shocked by what they were seeing. This subsequently led to a prevailing theory that Chris Brown was somehow behind all of this. People said that perhaps Brown bought out the tickets so that Quavo’s show would look bad. In the eyes of Adam22, this is a bit far-fetched. After all, it would just put money in Quavo’s pockets.

“Blaming this on Chris Brown seems like bullshit. It would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy enough tickets to fill that room,” Adam wrote. “Yes I think CB has bread, no I don’t think he would spend that much bread to make an opp look silly for the night.” Adam makes a good point, although it is hard to tell what really went down here. Either way, this beef is ramping up, and only time will tell whether or not it actually continues.

Kanye West Addresses Taylor Swift Conspiracies And Claps Back At Shaq With Adoration

by

Kanye West and Taylor Swift have a very long history in the public eye. Of course, Kanye interrupted her speech at the VMAs after winning best music video. Furthermore, he had some not so nice words for her on his song “Famous.” Overall, it is easy to see how Swift might not like Kanye and vice versa. In fact, this makeshift feud led to some interesting rumors after the Super Bowl. For instance, it was said that Swift had him kicked out of the game after he took a seat in front of her sky box.

Additionally, after Kanye posted his music peaking above Taylor Swift on the charts, there was a concerted effort from Swifties to get Ye out of the number one spot. West saw this and immediately took to Instagram where he addressed a whole plethora of headlines. For instance, he spoke about the Super Bowl, his prior beef with Swift, and he even spoke about Shaq who dissed him in a recent Instagram post. “REMEMBER I WAS ON TAYLOR’S SIDE WHEN SCOOTER BOUGHT HER MASTERS BEHIND HER BACK,” Ye wrote. “SHE AND BEYONCÉ ARE BIG INSPIRATIONS TO ALL MUSICIANS WE ALWAYS SAY HOW BOTH SELL OUT TOURS AND MOVIES. ALSO, I’M SURE I’VE BEEN FAR MORE HELPFUL TO TAYLOR SWIFT’S CAREER THAN HARMFUL.”

There are certainly no hurt feelings here. “OH AND TO SHAQ I GREW UP LOOKING UP TO YOU I WOULD LOVE TO HANG WITH YOU AND JAMIE SOMETIME JAIMIE SALTER IS LIKE A FATHER FIGURE TO ME,” Ye explained.

Ice Cube Refutes Conspiracy Theory About Secret Meeting To Change Rap

by

Ice Cube has often had a strange relationship with politics. While he’s often been praised for some of his activism he also took a controversial anti-vaccine stance during the COVID-19 pandemic. Last year, he controversially appeared on an episode of Tucker Carlson’s Twitter show. In a conversation with the former conservative news host, he revealed just how serious he was in his anti-vax stance. He claims to have turned down a $9 million movie role because he refused to get the vaccine.

Now he’s once again crossing paths with politics. That came when he posted a response to a decades-old conspiracy theory on Twitter. In response to a clip shared by a different conservative pundit, Alex Jones, one fan brought up a conspiracy theory about a conversation of powerful voices in rap music meant to shift the genre in a violent direction. “I believe Cube @icecube likely has direct knowledge of “the secret meeting” that Krayzie Bone was referring to in the above long clip … Which leaves speculation that either the N.W.A. group was directly involved in the matter or were at least the model that all other groups were to mimic, being the group was directly blamed for the rising crime rate by the federal government at the height of the groups career,” his tweet reads. Unsurprisingly, Ice Cube has some thoughts. Check out his response below.

Ice Cube Claps Back At Twitter Conspiracy Theorist

“Opinions are like assholes. Everybody has one and they all stink! What evidence do you have to make a statement like that?” Ice Cube said in a quote tweet response to the fan. The fan did try and backpedal on their comments in the replies to Cube’s quote tweet. But the rapper himself seems to be done arguing the point.

Ice Cube’s presence and influence in hip hop is still pretty obvious. Last year he nabbed his first song to reach 1 billion streams on Spotify with “It Was A Good Day.” What do you think of Ice Cube’s response to a fan where he refutes a conspiracy theory about rap culture? Let us know in the comment section below.

Man Scales Radio Tower With “Free Billie Eilish” Banner

by

Social media campaigns to “free” certain celebrities have come into their element over the last decade or so. The most famous of these campaigns is the long-running “FreeBritney” campaign. That campaign called for the end of Britney Spears’ infamous conservatorship. However, these campaigns have also been seen for the likes of Amanda Bynes, Taylor Swift, and Ke$ha. While typically about control over a celebrity’s life, some campaigns, such as those for Swift and Ke$ha, have also been about control of their music or intellectual property.

Billie Eilish has been creating music for nearly a decade. However, she has only reached global success in the past few years. The singer has become an icon of the “alt girl” resurgence and has quickly become a staple of the music industry. However, she is the latest celebrity who people want to see “freed, but this campaign has a few people confused.

Billie Eilish And The MK Ultra Conspiracy

On Tuesday night, an unnamed man scaled the iconic KTLA tower on Sunset Boulevard. Settling himself atop the advertising billboard approximately halfway up the tower, the man unveiled a double-sided banner. One side read “Free Billie Eilish” while the other read “MK Ultra sex slaves donald marshall clones.” The banner makes reference to fringe conspiracy theorist Donald Marshall. Marshall is a Canadian conspiracy theorist who has found a following on Facebook and TikTok. A majority of Marshall’s conspiracy theories revolve around the Illuminati, the secret society that conspiracy theorists believe runs the world. The Hollywood thoroughfare was shut down for several hours before the man was removed by the fire department.

The man’s banner specifically refers to “clones”, which is a reference to Marshall’s theory that the Illuminati clones humans during REM sleep. As for the connection to Eilish, the first part of the banner cites “MK Ultra sex slaves”. MK-Ultra was a CIA project that ran from the 1950s to the 1970s. The aim of the project was to discover a genuine “truth serum” for use in interrogations. Some conspiracy theorists believe MK-Ultra is still active today and is used by the US government to create sex slaves among other things. From this, we can infer that the man believes that Billie Eilish is actually an MK-Ultra victim. It is unclear if the man will be charged for his antics Tuesday night. However, it’s safe to say that Eilish’s fans were confused to see “#FreeBillieEilish” trending on social media.

Damar Hamlin Conspiracies Run Amock On Twitter

by

Damar Hamlin suffered a very traumatic injury while playing against the Cincinnati Bengals two weeks ago. As many of you already know by now, Hamlin’s heart stopped on the field. Subsequently, he was resuscitated and taken to the hospital where he was put into a coma.

Additionally, Hamlin was evaluated for neurological damage. However, he was able to fully recover, which was great news for him and his family. Since that time, he has been released from the hospital, and on Sunday, he was in Buffalo to cheer on his teammates.

Damar Hamlin Conspiracies

Unfortunately, a large chunk of people have Damar Hamlin trending today, and for all of the wrong reasons. There are some people out there who believe Hamlin actually died on the field, and it is all because of the vaccine. These conspiracy theorists think that the NFL is trying to cover this up and that Hamlin is being played by some sort of clone.

Overall, these theories are simply ridiculous. After all, there would have to be a whole lot of coordination for this to happen. Moreover, Hamlin has shown his face to the camera on numerous occasions since the incident. However, since he opted to cover his face on Sunday, some people are letting their imaginations run wild. In the tweet below, Hamlin trolled those who are theorizing about his mortality.

Additionally, rational people who live in the real world are calling cap on all of this. In the various tweets below, people made it clear that they find all of this to be ridiculous. At this point, conjuring up such conspiracy theories to push an agenda is offputting, and people just don’t want to hear it.

Let us know what you think about these theories, in the comments below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news from the sports world.
