Goldie suggests humans are descended from aliens

Goldie has suggested that humans could be descendants of aliens.

In response to the “billionaire space race” which saw the likes of Jeff Bezos and Sir Richard Branson travel nearly 62 miles beyond the Earth’s surface, the drum ’n' bass legend has shared his theory that our ancestors lived on Mars.

Speaking to the Daily Star, he said: "Humans can't live in space because that's where the negative energy comes from and we implode.”

He added: “…our ancestors used to live there. Mars is like an old fucking gaff we used to live at. It's an old fucking house party.”

“I always get that weird thing when people start saying, 'Oh here we go with Aliens’,” he explained. “But we are aliens. We are a manifestation of power, energy in the universe that's manifested itself in one consciousness. Where do we come from? We are the manifestation of an infinite universe in infancy.”

When asked whether he would follow the likes of Bezos and Branson into space, Goldie responded: “I’m not going to go to space because it’s too expensive and somebody has already done it. It costs billions” before asking “how much was that trip?”
