Forget famous people. I already know of two young adults that died from heroin and several more that are hooked. Nobody cares when a Democrat is in office. They don't want the blame. Just like the homeless. Not talked bout much in Democrat administrations. But just wait.
Notice the common age is around 26 or 27? And that most of it is said to be heroin??? Also notice the dates, looks that almost, I SAID ALMOST FOR YOU STUPID PEOPLE, that almost every year starting from the 70's a singer has died... And This isn't all the singers because it stops at year 1979...
Pattern? I think so... These people make deals with the devil to be singers and to be famous and the only way out of said contract is death...
Except for Hendrix, they being someone in the govt killed him for his messages in his songs... He was singing about not being a slave with the mind and all that, but I bet none of you actually listen to the words and their meanings and messages anyway right? Because I bet you still don't know that most of these songs by these singers can be played backwards and it says crap about satin and all that... The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Queen, Eagles, Motor Head, Styx, and many more...
It is sad you people are so stupid you can't breathe on your own, you would have vast amounts of knowledge if you researched...
Makes you wonder why a talented person would need to also be a dope head.
Of all of the different substances and combinations listed - not one mention of marijuana. (Alcohol is on the list numerous times.)
A plant that I can grow on my own property, for my own consumption which has never been addictive nor fatally harmful, should not be prohibited.
so much worse today. Every city, town and hamlet is losing our young at an horrible rate.
This is by no means a comprehensive list, as if drug overdoses by performers didn't exist before 1960. They did, and the list is long.
Fame is not not free. Fame brings much heart achce and boredom. Family and friends are what it is all about. Who needs dope.
That's a lot of really good music! How many entertainers have died of Alcoholism?
10:20 It's hard to take your theory seriously about Hendrix being assassinated BUT you may be right about the "deals with the devil".Look back at all the great famous people,singers,actors,etc and see how many have had miserable tragic lives even as their careers were hot. Jayne Mansfield ,the actress,is said to have attended Anton Lavey's church of Satan and presto! Beheaded.
It's only a matter of time for the Illuminati whore called Beyonce has her chit called in.
Majority heroin...hmmmm they had the money to solve their own addiction and couldn't; therefore, what makes people think taxpayers money will solve it. Once again...taxpayers money spent on nothing.
