‘The Simpsons’ foreshadowed Prince’s death

For The Penn - 12/06/2018

This article contains opinion. “The Simpsons” have predicted some of the craziest events in history, most notably the prediction of Donald Trump becoming the U.S. president. One event in particular it predicted came at the fate of one of music’s most iconic figures, Prince. In the 2008 “Treehouse of Horror” (Episode XIX), the show’s protagonist, Homer Simpson, kills the singer backstage after his show. This was without Prince knowing of his impending death, kind of like the way he unexpectedly died in 2016. Granted, the way he left us in real life was not like how it was predicted, but the meaning and ideology left behind as to why he died remains the same. Prince was one to openly speak about chemtrails, chemical and biological agents left in the sky by aircraft and sprayed for purposes deemed negative in context with the general public not knowing why, and about Osama Bin Laden following the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. Why this is bad is because Prince may have known too much about these topics, and those leading the secretive plans feared that he would leak information pertinent to their mission and ruin everything. Prince died to an overdose of fentanyl, which was deemed accidental. What authorities and historians are trying to answer is his motive for taking the medication, since no known problems were reported. Warrants for his estate and the Walgreens pharmacy near his area were issued, but no real criminal activity was found…or maybe there was. This is really where connections start to come together since we take what Prince knew and those who had it out for him. If all areas are glued together, we can see that something was obviously wrong with the dosage he had. If he had been taking this for a while, he knew the appropriate amount to take for whatever his reason was. This leads me and others to believe that someone tampered with his medication to give him the “fatal dosage.” Now how does this tie into “The Simpsons” prediction? Well, Homer went through with assassinating Prince as part of a government ploy since agents said, “singers like him don’t listen to us.” This is oddly related to the ties Prince had with what he said about the chemtrails and Bin Laden. Someone wanted him gone to cover up something both on “The Simpsons” and in real life. These reasons are too oddly similar to just be a mere coincidence. But no matter what it was, it could be said that “The Simpsons” dethroned Prince.
