RUE WAS DEAD THE WHOLE TIME
The Euphoria finale revealed Rue's reunion with her mom never happened.
She overdosed on Ali's couch, and the hug from her dead father was just her dying brain's final goodbye.
The "painkillers" Alamo left out for her were laced with fentanyl - a trap set the moment he learned she was the rat.
> The pills weren't random: Alamo knew Rue's addiction and used it as a trap, murder by design
> Ali woke up, found her body, tested the pills, and went for revenge
> He gunned down Alamo in his strip club - Alamo's own pistol jammed because Bishop set him up
> Angus Cloud died the same way in real life - the Fezco field clip wrecked everyone
Seven years of fighting to survive, and her own mind built a mother's arms to carry her out.

Tina Knowles spoke about Euphoria on her IG:
โI know that this was just a TV show. So why have I been depressed since yesterday? I can't get that sad feeling out of my stomach. It feels as though I lost a family member ! maybe it's because I like Zendaya so much or maybe it's because I had a nephew that reminded me so much of Rue. And he was in his good times one of my favorite people on earth. Stayed with me every summer when he was a kid and while he was in college, I tried everything in my power to save him, payed for rehab several times bought him cars, got him out of several dangerous situations, sneaking girls in my house, (in which Bey and i were laughing today because he bribed her not to tell with honey buns) Smoking weed and blowing it out the bathroom window and he always landed on his feet though, because he was so charming and so handsome and so smart and talented. He would do good for years and then fall off the wagon ! And no matter what we did we couldn't save him. He was his own worst enemy. at 40 he passed away I still don't know what the conditions were. It broke my heart, and I realize that this is bringing up all the feelings again It is a testament to how amazing Zendaya is as an actress because I felt every bit of pain every bit of joy every bit of confusion that she was feeling. It seems crazy now that I pray that the character will turn around and it would have a good ending of course It didnt.โ
Rick James created "Super Freak" by improvising the lyrics on top of a funk riff and called on the Temptations to record the backing vocals. The song became one of his biggest hits and was sampled by MC Hammer on "U Can't Touch This".
Remembering Tony Thompson of the group Hi-Five, who died 19 years ago today at the age of 31 from the toxic effects of huffing.
He was just 15 when Hi-Five earned a #1 song on the Billboard Hot 100.

Speaking further, Skepta said, โThere is so much injustice in Nigeria. And whenever I can whether it is at my shows, verbally or images, whatever I can do, we are going to speak up for injustice at all time.โ
He also stressed the need for support and protection, saying, โNigerians need help. We need people to speak up for us as well. We need to protect Nigerians. There is so much injustice in Nigeria.โ
Concluding his message, he added, โThis is my message to the people; please, I know that we [Nigerians] are resilient and we make everything look good, but we need help, too. Please, help us,โ appealing for global awareness and intervention.
