Veteran entertainment journalist and entrepreneur John John Mosh Muchiri has signaled plans to publish an in-depth exposé examining claims of occult practices and ritual allegations within the global music industry, following explosive accusations circulating online.
In a statement shared on social media, Muchiri referenced recent claims by American rapper Nicki Minaj, who publicly accused power couple Jay-Z and Beyoncé of involvement in satanic rituals to maintain influence, wealth, and dominance in Hollywood.
Minaj made the allegations during the Grammy Awards period, suggesting unnamed artists engage in ritualistic practices.
While she did not directly name individuals in all her posts, Muchiri noted that the remarks were widely interpreted online as targeting Jay-Z, particularly over claims of alleged career sabotage linked to Roc Nation.
The controversy widened after rapper 50 Cent announced plans for a documentary touching on the couple, stating it would focus on “letting the truth out,” though without directly confirming the ritual allegations.
In Africa, Nigerian superstar Davido has also been drawn into online speculation. US-based Nigerian journalist Dr. Olukemi Olunloyo alleged that an associate linked to Davido sought hair and blood samples from the late singer Mohbad following his death in 2023.
The claims remain unverified, and no official investigation has confirmed ritual involvement in Mohbad’s death.
Meanwhile, Tanzanian singer Vanessa Mdee previously stated she stepped away from music after witnessing what she described as troubling practices within the industry. She has not provided detailed evidence of ritual activities.
Reports have also emerged suggesting that Jay-Z and Beyoncé sought legal measures to restrict further allegations from Minaj, though no formal court documents have been publicly presented.
Muchiri indicated that his upcoming series will interrogate the origins, motivations, and impact of such claims, while examining whether they reflect systemic exploitation, online conspiracy culture, or deeper structural issues in entertainment power dynamics.
He added that his next focus will shift to Kenya and East Africa, signaling a regional lens on similar narratives within the local music scene.
