yournewswire | John Homeston, a retired CIA agent, has admitted this week on
National Russian Television (NTV) that the CIA was behind the creation
of the 1980s hip hop scene and financed major hip hop acts including
NWA, Afrika Bambaataa, and Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five.
The government at the time spent “big money, serious money” on this covert operation destined to “further division” and “corrupt the American youth to nihilist, anti-establishment and anti-American ideologies”, he explained in a half hour interview broadcast on national television.
Famous hip hop songs of the legendary hip hop outfit NWA were even
scripted by a team of psychologists and war propagandists of the CIA. “F#ck the police,” and “When I’m called off, I got a sawed off / Squeeze the trigger, and bodies are hauled off,”
and other nihilist and anti-establishment lyrics were intended to
unleash a wave of cynicism towards authorities, promote the use of heavy
drugs, and entice the youth with revolutionary, counter-establishment
ideas.
The retired CIA agent claims the social engineering maneuver was “extremely successful.“
“We understood at the time that music was a powerful means of propaganda to reach the youth,” explained the 77-year-old man.
“Our mission was to use teenage angst to our advantage and turn
Generation X into a decadent, pro-drug and anti-establishment culture
that would create uprisings and further division within society. We even
infiltrated mainstream radio to promote their music and reach millions
of people everyday,” he admitted, visibly proud of the accomplishment.
“For many of us in the CIA, infiltrating the 1980s hip hop scene
was one of the CIA’s most successful experiments of propaganda to date,” he acknowledged during the interview.
“You could say Frankenstein’s monster got up off the table and started goose-stepping.”
