The recent display orchestrated by socialite Pretty Mike at the 50th birthday celebration of Obi Cubana is not just disturbing—it is deeply troubling and a stark reflection of the moral confusion that now pervades our social spaces.
What should have been a moment of joy, gratitude, and celebration for a life well-lived was hijacked by an entrance laced with dark symbolism, occultic semblance, and an eerie glorification of tragedy. Dressing individuals to portray gruesome accident victims, wrapped in bloodied bandages and contorted in theatrical pain, in the name of art or attention-seeking, is not only insensitive—it is spiritually distasteful and morally offensive.
As a society, we must resist the creeping normalization of such disturbing theatrics. This is not creativity; it is a blatant flirtation with forces and imagery that are antithetical to light, life, and righteousness. When grotesque scenes resembling rituals or death parades are allowed to take center stage in a dignified gathering, it sends a dangerous message—that anything goes, as long as it garners attention.
Let us be clear: the line between entertainment and spiritual manipulation is thin, and we must be discerning. Public figures must recognize the influence they wield. Their actions are not done in a vacuum; they shape perceptions, inspire imitation, and set standards, especially for the younger generation.
We cannot claim to honor God or uphold traditional values while applauding what looks like a modern-day masquerade of morbidity. It is high time we re-evaluated what we celebrate and who we elevate. Our culture, our children, and our collective spiritual sanity are at stake.
I call on our entertainers, event organizers, and influencers to uphold decorum, respect, and moral clarity in their public expressions. Let our celebrations be filled with life-giving inspiration, not macabre exhibitions disguised as performance art. There is still a place for reverence, for dignity, and for light in our gatherings—if only we choose it.
