9 Insane Conspiracy Theories About The Illuminati And The Music Industry

7. Rihanna's New Album Is A Massive Illuminati Statement

Up until the sudden release of 2016's Anti, Rihanna hadn't released an album in four years. While most would call this a career break, there are those who believe the hiatus was infinitely more sinister. Of course, the foundation of this rumour is that Rihanna is part of the Illuminati, but that's not the fascinating bit. What's curious is the intensity with which she's supposedly brain-washing the world through her music In general, Rihanna's lyrics promote an indulgent lifestyle, from partying to drinking to taking drugs. Illuminati conspiracy theorists would have you believe that alcohol and drug use are used by the organisation for control, so promoting those things through song is pretty obviously in line with their goals. There's also the fact that Rihanna's break-out hit Umbrella featured Jay-Z. Coincidence? According to theorists, Anti is Rihanna's greatest piece of Illuminati propaganda yet. I mean, have you seen the cover art, detailing a young child with a suspicious crown? The art is supposed to represent how blind society is to the truth from a very young age.
