Uncharted: Crime and Mayhem in the Music Industry, episode 070: Music’s greatest conspiracies, part 3
You cannot believe everything you read. You cannot believe everything you see on TV. You cannot believe what you see online. Trust no one, because the universe is out to get you.
This is the mindset of the conspiracy theorist. No event is random. Someone or something is in control. But if we do our own research, we’ll find that the truth is out there.
The world of music is full of conspiracy theories.
Did you know, for example, that Western music is being used to manipulate the minds of billions of people? That JonBenét Ramsey was not murdered and actually grew up to be a famous singer? That the music industry conspired to kill rock in the late ’90s in favour of boy bands? That the U.S. intelligence community was somehow involved in the rise of the California folk scene in the late 1960s?
What about this: everything we’ve been told about the Beatles is not only wrong but a complete lie. And finally, all Western music is designed to control you in ways you never imagined.
This is Episode 70 of Uncharted: Crime and Mayhem in the Music Industry. We’re up to Part Three of Music’s Greatest Conspiracies. Beware: these stories are not for the paranoid.
