Line 87:
* [[Michael Jackson]] tried to pre-empt this when he made the video for "[[Thriller (song)|Thriller]]" by adding a disclaimer (ghostwritten by John Landis on Jackson's behalf) stating that the contents of the video do not in any way reflect his religious beliefs (Jackson was a devout Jehovah's Witness at the time, having written articles for their official literature). The Jehovah's Witnesses still took umbrage which eventually resulted in Jackson leaving the group.
* Some Christian groups gave their hatred towards disco a more fire-and-brimstone twist by labelling the dance trend under the backronym '''D'''ancing '''I'''n '''S'''atan's '''CO'''mpany as a way to condemn the hedonism disco supposedly glorifies. Then again, people have gone burned out by the dance craze by the end of the 70s anyway.
* The hip-hop group [[Three 6 Mafia]] was, at least for a time, the butt of controversy from religious groups and conspiracy theorists alike–the group's name itself is a [[What Do You Mean, It's Not Symbolic?|thinly-veiled reference]] to the [[Number of the Beast]] in keeping with their image as a [[Horrorcore]] group (at least until they shifted to the more mainstream [[Glam Rap|"ringtone rap"]] sound in their later albums); this bit back on them in the song "Stay Fly" where a sample from the Willie Hutch song [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1cRaYMlJmQ "Tell Me Why Has Our Love Turned Cold"] was [[Mondegreen|misinterpreted]] as "Lucifer, you're my king, you're my father" instead of "you're my pride, you're my king, you're my father", as if the Three-Six was indeed [[Rock Me, Asmodeus|singing praises to the devil]].
