This article, by Russell Sackett, argues that the widely perceived image of folk singer John Prine as a “common man” is a fabrication. The author, a musician himself, claims to have discovered numerous “red flags” through genealogical research, particularly after John Prine announced he had contracted Coronavirus. Sackett suggests that Prine’s biography and familial connections, as presented in mainstream sources like Wikipedia and Geni, have been altered and are indicative of elite or privileged lineage, contradicting his public persona.

The author alleges that Prine’s parents, William Prine and Verna Hamm, have had their names and professions suspiciously altered on Wikipedia after his supposed death, with new information about their lineage now available. He connects Prine to various prominent and powerful families through extensive genealogical research, including the Masons, Valentines, Roosevelts, lincolns, Hamiltons, Robinsons, Morgans, Whelans, Peabody Coal Company founders, and even Mark Twain. Sackett also scrutinizes Prine’s self-proclaimed military service in West Germany during the Vietnam War, suggesting it was a cover for intelligence work and a way to connect with figures like Kris Kristofferson.

Furthermore, Sackett criticizes Prine’s music, interpreting his apparent anti-establishment songs as a form of controlled opposition, designed to placate public dissent rather than challenge the system. He points to numerous prominent figures like Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Joan Baez, and Jeff Tweedy praising Prine as further evidence of a manufactured narrative. The author questions the official cause of Prine’s death, attributing it to pneumonia and a fabricated Coronavirus pandemic, highlighting the “indeterminate” test results for Covid19 as a key piece of evidence for deception. He concludes that Prine, far from being a common man, is from a line of immense privilege and his entire public image has been a deliberate lie.
