J. Coles popular 2013 track She Knows has recently gained traction on social media, thanks to a TikTok conspiracy theory involving the deaths of iconic artists Lisa Lopes, Aaliyah, and Michael Jackson.
In the past two days, rumors have spread across social platforms suggesting that Beyoncé, Jay-Z, and Diddy were somehow linked to these artists deaths.
The theory connects Beyoncé to J. Coles song She Knows, claiming that the rapper was referencing the singer in the title. The theory speculates that Beyoncé allegedly had knowledge of a supposed plan by Diddy and Jay-Z that resulted in the deaths of Aaliyah, Lisa Left Eye Lopes, and Michael Jackson.
Some conspiracy theorists took the speculation further, noting the coincidence that all three artists died on the 25th of different months. J. Cole references these artists in the song with the lyrics: Only bad thing bout a star is they burn up/ Rest in peace to Aaliyah/ Rest in peace to Left Eye/ Michael Jackson, Ill see ya/ Just as soon as I die.
Aaliyah tragically passed away in a plane crash on August 25, 2001. Lisa Left Eye Lopes died in a car accident on April 25, 2002, and Michael Jackson passed on June 25, 2009, due to cardiac arrest, reportedly caused by a drug overdose.
The viral TikTok theory suggests that Diddy, Jay-Z, and Beyoncé were somehow involved in all three deaths.
One user on X, @G3MINI13, seemingly mocked the theory, while another pointed out the coincidence of the date by quoting: wdym AALIYAH, LEFT EYE and MJ all died on the 25th of the month and they were all mentioned on J.Coles song SHE KNOWS.
A conspiracy theory of Sean Diddy Combs, Jay-Z, and Beyonce having links to Aaliyahs death has been making the rounds on the internet, stirring up the drama over the viral video on TikTok. Going deeper into the rabbit hole, allegedly the celebrities also have connections to the underworld.
Apart from Aaliyah, the Hollywood personalities are claimed to have connections with the deaths of Michael Jackson, Left Eye, and Tupac. Even though the theories put forth by the fans are too bizarre, it is well known that they can very well just be publicity gimmicks.
Adding to the conspiracies, multiple TikToks and Reels have been posted related to the theory, with J. Coles popular song, She Knows, serving as the background track.
Additionally, the netizens supposedly think that although artists like Adele have in the past expressed gratitude to their role models at award shows and beyond, in more recent times, they have gone so far as to mention Beyonce and Jay-Z together, leaving the public perplexed about the entire situation.The situation has left many wondering how a thank you could be a part of any illegal work, the theory claims that it might be a coded message, which could make an impact on their respective careers.
Moreover, a few have started connecting Kanye West and Taylor Swifts minor rift during the 2009s MTV awards to this conspiracy. When the Grammy-winning singer stepped up on the stage to receive her trophy, West interrupted and stated that Beyonce deserved the award. However, now, it is alleged that the rapper might have tried to save Swift from the ongoing scandal. Adding to the ongoing drama, the theorists also exclaimed that Beyonces gesture of sending flowers to her colleagues in the industry might be more than just a kind gesture. They claimed that along with the flowers, the musician may use them as a tactic to threaten others.
However, its better to take this theory with a grain of salt, as neither Beyoncé nor Jay Zs names have been cited in the lawsuits, and no evidence has been found against any of them. The whole conspiracy is based on the rumors online.
Meanwhile, Sean Diddy Combs is set to appear in federal court amidst facing sex trafficking charges.
