I recently watched the movie "Strung" on Peacock, directed by Malcolm D Lee, written by Alan B McElroy, and produced by Tyler Perry. The film was decent, but it might have been hard to watch without Lynn Whitfield's outstanding performance, as she excels in every role. I was drawn to this movie due to its intriguing promotion. The promotional image features the lead character, Laila Calloway, played by Chloe Bailey, holding a violin over one eye, with a girl in an African mask in the background. This image caught my attention because it reminded me of the Illuminati's one-eye symbolism. I am a firm believer in the Illuminati, secret societies, and conspiracy theories, and I was curious about any hidden messages in the film. The release date also intrigued me, as I know the Illuminati often embeds clues in dates. The movie came out on June 26, or 6/26. By applying the occult law of reversal, flipping the two 6s to 9s results in 9/29, and adding 9+2 equals 11, which forms 9/11. The elites or Illuminati seem to be fascinated by the number 911. I feel a personal connection to 9/11 because my mother passed away on that date, which may contribute to my ability to decode movies. Although my mother died on November 11th, or 11/11, November used to be the ninth month in the old calendar, which means she actually died on 9/11.


Let's dive into the movie. It can be described as a blend of thriller and horror. The story begins when Chloe Bailey's character, Laila, is hired as a music instructor by Audra, portrayed by Lynn Whitfield. Laila is brought on to work with a young, traumatized girl named Zuri, who is Audra's granddaughter. Zuri is coping with the recent loss of her famous rapper father, RGB, who is believed to have died from a drug overdose. Zuri discovered his body. At the start of the movie, Zuri wears an African mask throughout the day because it provides her with comfort and protection, reminding her of her father, RGB, who was fond of African culture.

The family for whom Laila is employed is undoubtedly wealthy, likely benefiting from the late rapper RGB's career, but a deeper secret awaits discovery. Rapper RGB, Zuri's father, did not die from a drug overdose; he was murdered by his daughter's grandmother Audra through her lover Marcus, who was also RGB's best friend. Audra is a psychopath who despised RGB due to his humble beginnings as a rapper, despite his eventual wealth. She even plans to poison her granddaughter Zuri to gain more money, though she fears the funds might be tied up in a trust for Zuri. The movie subtly addresses themes of African spirituality, ancestors, and guardian angels, which I believe the Illuminati intended to incorporate. Zuri recalls her father's advice about trusting her instincts, suggesting they are the voices of her ancestors guiding her. This intuition saves Zuri's life when she refuses to eat Audra's poisoned food, listening to her instincts or ancestors, or perhaps her guardian angels. Another clue of Illuminati influence is the tapes RGB left, expressing his fear of being killed. The tape is dated 10-10-20, which can be reduced to 1-1-2, and further to 11, ultimately forming 1111, a significant angel number in New Age beliefs. I believe the filmmakers aim to convey that angels or ancestors continue to exist after death and can assist you if you connect with them. RGB, in my view, acts as Zuri's guardian angel, helping her survive Audra's deadly intentions. There is also an almost unnoticeable moment in the film when the character Marcus RGB's best friend and killer, and love interest of Audra is looking through the older still unreleased material of RGB as he ponders how much money that music can be worth.


Upon closer inspection, there's a book titled Angelology on the bookshelf next to RGB's unreleased music. Why did the filmmakers choose to place it there? They aim to suggest the presence of angels and ancestors. Furthermore, there's a scene where Chloe Bailey/Laila discovers RGB's final confessions hidden in a tape inside a snake container. Why would RGB, the deceased angel or ancestor, hide this tape and last confession with a poisonous snake? Could there be links between angels and snakes? I believe there are. Wasn't Lucifer a fallen angel associated with snakes or serpents in the Garden of Eden? In this film, the snake is not a negative symbol but a positive, protective one. In African culture, especially among the Yoruba, snakes are regarded as protective symbols. The Illuminati often invert what the church promotes, viewing Lucifer or Satan not as evil but as a symbol of light and knowledge—after all, Lucifer means light. The fallen angels are seen as civilizing forces for humanity rather than symbols of evil. I believe these messages are woven into the movie, and to highlight the Illuminati's influence, the film ends as it begins, with the all-seeing Illuminati eye. This is evident in the end credits scene where we see an injured Audra looking through her half-damaged, gauze-covered face with one eye. The biggest question I have is why this Illuminati symbolism is associated with a movie produced by whom I thought was a Christian Tyler Perry, and Christian writer Alan B. McElroy—is this a case where there is actually more than meets the eye?
