A very interesting and useful article. Too many people go around trying to run down great artists by making up bad stories about them. They say that Michael Jackson molested children. They said the same thing about Gary Glitter, and they are starting to say the same thing about Rolf Harris, and Roy Harper. Harper’s friend Jimmy Page so far hasn’t been accused of that, I’m glad the open minded can understand a rock star can have a consensual relationship with a 14 year old. They try to tell us that David Crosby, James Brown, and Kurt Cobain mixed drugs and firearms! They say that about Elvis too. Get this, they say that Kurt Cobain killed himself. That’s silly, nobody ever found a body, I think he’s forming a band with that other guy that disappeared, the guy from the Manic Street Sweepers.
I hope that you will consider doing a similar analysis of the life and work of another gravely misunderstood artist, GG Allin. Like Tupac, he was accused of sexual assault and served time; like Tupac, it was all trumped up to keep him from sharing his message of empowerment and possitivity. They say he died of a drug overdose, but the truth is he died while wrassling with a box-cutting wielding terrorist on a hijacked airplane. Had he prevailed, the whole plane load of people would have been saved. At least he tried.
I wrote a song about the REAL GG Allin. I hope the true message will get some traction, maybe you can help. https://soundcloud.com/wacky-moose/tribute-to-gg-allin

Dear Intending Partner,Thank you very much for your mail. I am Mrs. Gogna Mridula a nationality of Indian and bank officer with the International bank of Taipei ( Bank SinoPac) Taiwan. Let me give you a detailed description of what is in this transaction for us. In June 2003, My late client Osman Peltek, Turkish Businessman, who is a nationality of Iraq, made a numbered fixed deposit of One Billion Five hundred Million Taiwanese New Dollars ($1,500,000,000.00 TWD) for 18 calendar months, this is valued to Forty Four million Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars($44.5 Million USD) only in my branch. Upon maturity several notices were sent to him, even during the war (U.S and Iraqi war) Nine years ago (2004). Again after the war another notification was sent and still no response came from him. We later found out that Osman Peltek is dead, sources confirmed that he was strangled in Bagdat (Baghdad). According to the Turkish Embassy in Baghdad, Peltek's body was found in a deserted area in the neighborhood of Zafiraniye. No one has heard from Osman Peltek since 4th November 2003 when he had been vanished.After further investigation it was also discovered that Osman Peltek did not declare any next of kin in his official papers including the paper work of his bank deposit. And he also confided in me the last time he was at my office that no one except me knew of his deposit in my bank. So the Forty Four million Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars is still lying in my bank and no one will ever come forward to claim it. What bothers me most is that according to the laws of Taiwan, at the expiration of Ten years Six months the funds will revert to the ownership of the Taiwan Government if nobody applies to claim the funds.Against this backdrop, we still have about Eight (8) more months left for someone to come up and claim the funds as next of kin to this fund. My suggestion to you is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand as the next of kin to Osman Peltek so that you will be able to receive his funds and for the money to be pulled out from my bank and out from Taiwan.WHAT IS TO BE DONE?I want you to know that I have had everything planned out so that we shall come out successful. I have contacted an attorney that will prepare the necessary documents that will back you up as the next of kin to Osman Peltek, all that is required from you at this stage is for you to provide me with your details as below:Full Name:Contact Address:Occupation:After you have been made the next of kin, the attorney will also file in for claims on your behalf and secure the necessary approval and letter of probate in your favour for the transfer of the funds to an account that will be provided by you.There is no risk involved at all in this matter as we are going to adopt a legalized method and the attorney will prepare all the necessary documents. Please endeavour to observe utmost discretion in all matters concerning this issue. Once the funds have been transferred to your nominated bank account we shall share in the ratio of 70% for me and 30% for you. Should you be interested please send me your full names and current residential address.Finally after that I shall provide you with more details of this operation. Your earliest response to this letter will be appreciated.Kind Regards,Mrs. Gogna Mridula
