Listen, I've been around a bit, you know, and I thought I'd seen some creepy things go on in the movie business, but I really have to say this is the most disgusting thing that's ever happened to me.

I can't find it now, but I remember reading a piece (possibly in Rolling Stone) where a couple of music industry heavyweights talked about visits from CIA suits encouraging them to sign up and promote hip-hop artists who leaned in a particular direction.

Early hip-hop was grassroots and channelled the anger of black inner city youth into music. It was very anti-establishment and much of the early stuff was about solidarity and fighting against the power. It channelled a lot of anger and inter-gang violence into musical expression through rap battles and b-boy dance-offs, and gave black people in inner cities a powerful voice.

But in the early 90s the whole anti-establishment ethos of solidarity and "smoke weed be chill with your brothers" mentality was replaced with the gangsta mantra of black-on-black violence, misogyny and the glorification of top-quality CIA-supplied drugs.

I'm not saying all popular music is an op, but given their track history and the cultural importance of music, the CIA absolutely had their fingers in that pie.

i will always fondly remember a moment of being in a joint-passing circle, high off my rear end sitting just in front of and facing away from the TV, grooving to the music that was playing on it

when i asked what was playing, a dude was like "that's widespread, man" like this was some huge and important revelation

instead i said something like "oh, yeah, that makes sense."

when you have enough wealth and institutional power it's amazing what you can do just by being a tastemaker and favoring the production of x type of product over y.

you give people money to make art they love making, you make minimal, probably in-the-moment reasonable (or at least not immediately objectionable) requests about content,

that can culturally devastate.

i dunno, i think people grossly over-estimate their independence, intellectually. In a world where you are always reacting to popular culture, whoever sets that cultural agenda more or less controls the minds of the nation.

welcome to dead gay dog house
Are there any good (trustworthy) materials covering The Finders and their possible CIA connections? I started reading "The Gamecaller" by Tobe Terrell but so far it reads more like a love letter to the movement than a critical analysis or tell-all (considering he was a part of it and apparently has had allegations made against him too I'm not super surprised). The whole thing feels very under-reported. The members who are still alive and not in prison for sex crimes are obviously not talking, at least not publically. Dave McGowen wrote an article, "Finders Keepers", but it's not on the same level as other topics he's covered (like those seen in Programmed to Kill). I've reached out to a few journos who covered The Finders in the past and they've got nothing. A MuckRock search for FOIA requests hasn't turned up anything worthwhile but maybe I haven't looked hard enough.

quote:

Beatles... or Deceitles?

On December the 8th, 1980, Mark David Chapman exploded the Beatles myth forever. Outside the Dakota in New York City, Chapman fired four shots into one of the most recognizable actors of our time: CIA agent Ben Hoyle, the man who portrayed John Lennon on television, on the silver screen, on the radio, and in a billion hearts. According to paramedic Dan Trouel, Hoyle’s last words were ‘Tell [CIA director Stansfield] Turner… I’m blown.’ Trouel, starstruck and heartbroken, initially thought ‘Lennon’ was talking nonsense.

‘Initially,’ says Trouel, ‘I thought he was talking nonsense.’ Little did he know that Hoyle had provided the first clue to unraveling one of the greatest deceptions ever perpetrated on the American public. ‘American public,’ you ask? ‘Weren’t the Beatles a worldwide phenomenon?’ WRONG. Ask any British adult who the Beatles are, and you’ll be greeted with a blank stare.

at some point there was probably a social movement that spooked someone, so an archetype was made, pushed, and sold to disarm it, yeah? like that's what has been happening for decades, any emergent trend that might mutate outside the confines of capitalism gets co-opted and the idea it's an organic process only feels really naive.
