Is the illuminati in the music industry
No, there is no credible evidence to support the idea that the Illuminati, a secret society that supposedly controls world events, is involved in the music industry or any other industry for that matter. The concept of the Illuminati as a shadowy, all-powerful group that manipulates global events is largely a conspiracy theory and has been widely debunked.
Many conspiracy theories have arisen over the years, linking various celebrities and public figures to the Illuminati based on perceived symbolism or supposed hidden messages in their work. These theories are not supported by credible evidence and are often driven by speculation, mistrust, and a desire to find hidden meaning in popular culture.
It’s important to approach conspiracy theories with skepticism and critical thinking, and to rely on credible sources and evidence when evaluating claims about secretive groups like the Illuminati. The music industry, like any other entertainment sector, is driven by a complex mix of artistic creativity, business interests, and market forces, and it is not controlled by any shadowy secret society.

Lily Mae Harrington Gets “Salty”
Powerful New Single from MOTHICA featuring Sophie Powers
“I wrote ‘Sirens’ about having feelings for someone who is a walking red flag. The type of toxic person you should avoid, but the tantalizing allure of ignoring your intuition about someone,” shares MOTHICA. “I’ve been a huge PVRIS fan for years because Lynn Gunn is a true visionary in every aspect of her project. I had the pleasure of meeting her during a writing camp and got to make ‘Sirens’ with her and co-wrote it with one of my favorite people, Maize. Lynn produced the song, and I was in awe of working with an artist I’ve admired for so long. I asked Sophie Powers to jump on the song, and she sent this incredible second verse that’s been stuck in my head! It was an incredible experience to work with three other women to create ‘Sirens’ and wanted to release it before my upcoming third album.”
