9 Songs That Perpetuate Crazy Conspiracy Theories

"Parasites, they run around / The culprits won't be found / They lie behind this mask of wealth / They're taking over now / Illuminati, they hide"

Several prominent musicians have been accused of sacrificing their souls to a powerful cabal that supposedly controls who gets a taste of success in the entertainment industry. Some of these musicians have even felt compelled to write songs denying their involvement. (Jay-Z and Madonna, just to name a couple.)

And then there's Jonathan Davis. You remember him, don't you? He was the white, dreadlocked voice of angst in the late-90s and lead singer of nu metal pioneers Korn.

Davis is not a member of the Illuminati. And honestly, he seems pretty bummed about that. That's probably why he chooses to attack those who are more successful than he is by connecting them to the secret society.

Korn's attempt at dub step, 2011's The Path of Totality, features a track that outs the Illuminati as a hope-raping superpower that has corrupted the government beyond repair. But this wasn't his first public criticism of the Illuminati.

Weeks before his new album dropped (coincidence?), he accused President Barack Obama of using Miley Cyrus and her pop star ilk to distract the public from "what's going on" in America and abroad. Davis also claimed the Commander-in-chief is an "Illuminati puppet" himself.
