“Illuminati” is a socially conscious song by Timaya, where he humorously addresses the long-standing conspiracy theory that many successful entertainers are members of the Illuminati. Timaya uses the song to mock the obsession people have with blaming the Illuminati for others’ success, especially in the African music industry. He playfully brags about wealth, fame, and influence while suggesting that if being successful means being labeled “Illuminati,” then so be it.
