Following recent controversy surrounding Jay Z’s hinted affiliation with Nation of Islam offshoot the Five Percent Nation, an active member of the organization recently spoke with The Source about the rapper’s alleged connections.
“Some of us don’t know if Jay Z is a Five Percenter,” a member named Born Justice Allah said. “He should have some kind of influence from some of the Five Percenters in his area ‘cause he grew up in Brooklyn. Brooklyn, as we call Medina, was heavily influenced back in the ‘60s. So I’m not gonna say he’s not a Five Percenter but I can’t say he is either until I talk with him. Same thing with Carmelo Anthony, I would like to know because you wearing our Universal Flag.”
Jay Z’s alleged ties with the organization stem from both a recent lyrical reference to Yakub—an ancient scientist responsible for the creation of the White race according to Nation of Islam theology—and his sporadically donning the organization’s Universal Flag. On a featured verse that appeared on Jay Electronica’s “We Made It” last month, Jay Z raps, “I’m ready to chase Yakub back into the caves / These are the last days / But do I seem fazed?”
Jay Z was pictured wearing a prominent Universal Flag pendant while sitting court-side at a Brooklyn Nets game with wife Beyonce earlier this month.
“I couldn’t go and just make a Roc logo—you know, Jay Z had the Roc logo—I’m quite sure somebody would have asked me am I down with Roc-A-Fella Records,” Justice Allah added. “No. If I’m not down with the Roc then why am I wearing the Roc logo. Same way you wearing the Five Percenters universal flag, are you affiliated with us? You showing us respect, you have it on. I wouldn’t be…courtside at the basketball game but he took it there. Now that it’s there, why people zooming in on the flag? Just because Jay Z wearing it? We been wearing the flag for years. We have some made in medallions for years. Is it really about Jay Z? Is it really about the Five Percenters? The Five Percenters are not wicked people, we’re righteous. Our father taught us to be not anti-White nor pro-Black. [He] taught us to be anti-devilishment and pro-righteousness. It’s a big difference in the twist and turns that people use in words.”
Earlier this year, Jay Z’s possible ties to the Five-Percent Nation were also questioned by son of the late Wu-Tang Clan member Ol’ Dirty Bastard. “If he spreads this, which we are all his messengers, I don’t see nothing wrong with it,” YDB said. “But if he says anything bad about it—and he not teaching nobody right now. Him and Beyoncé—Beyoncé’s a beautiful woman, but they not teaching nobody shit. All I’m trying to say is we here and we only here to teach. I’m Elijah Muhammad’s student, he had a lot of children and I’m putting a lot of babies on this planet right now.”

5% nation of islam is the biggest bullshit i’ve ever heard.
somebody ban this sect please
Says yakub…..
Says……..(makes up name in my head) Bladshub, yeah.
ROFL
Youre white youre the devil youre not supposed to agree
You’re black, you’re a ni99er you are an inferior scummy shit stain
Whites are INFERIOR, whites have only been civilized for the past couple hundred years. look at your barbaric history and look at what the BLACK MAN and ASIAN MAN built. USA, GREECE, EUROPE, ANGKOR WAT
Who cares?
Never seen a religion so wary of letting someone embrace it. There are Christian churches in the Sothern States so desperate to spread their word that they’re offering M-16s to people who join.
A bunch of Wu-Tang members have been using 5 Percenter terminology for decades with no questioning.
your comment is full of ignorance, why were you so quick to offer this inane opinion
it’s not a religion, and Wu Tang members were present at meetings at the school, something you wouldn’t know because you ain’t nowhere around all of that to know
go away
fuck u anon…u obviously are too ignorant to understand his comment. i bet you’re some christian nutjob
look at stupid^
Tell that camel face to stop wearing skirt
If they’re truly gods, then why don’t the five percenters cure kids cancer or stuff like that?
nobody says anything about the pope being “god’s go to man” on earth and yet he has to be elected by men
some of us understand ignorance is bliss in the realm of capitalism
The pope doesn’t go around calling himself a God
bible called us gods of this world way before there was ever a pope
I don’t have the time to show you how god was turned off inside you (the energy, spirit) so you can follow those who come in the name to deceive you
hopefully that thought alone will lead you in the right direction

Huh? Wow great argument u made there, fucking idiot.
Peace to the Gods!5 Per Centers are not anti-White, they have White members..
how when they believe white people are devils
And dehumanise white people by saying that a scientist created them. If people of any colour are stupid enough to join/follow then so be it, that doesn’t mean it isn’t a racist cult.
They just believe that Whites have a “devilish” nature, but if they study the Lessons they can be reformed. And they do a lot of good in their communities.. stop hatin.
When people use the phrase “hating” it is because they can’t find reasoning to their argument. There’s no hating, just stating fact. No-one needs reforming or guidance other than those part of this cult. You may need some treatment if you believe without conviction what you are saying.
Jay-Z has nothing do with that. He just saw rappers and people on his block involved with that in the 80s and 90s and he’s just dickriding.
yeah, Jay probably know since the Marcy days but I bet he’s been “inspired” by Jay Electronica
only way we gonna find out is get him in a cypher and see if he can spit 120, and that most likely won’t happen
Mayor LaGuardia was an honorary member, the structure of Hip Hop was created by many of them, many older artists were a part of the culture, and there are Caucasian members
so once again, this article will be a venue for the ignorant and misinformed to show us how one dimensional and closed minded they can be, especially when many of you have been nowhere around them, never saw what they study and have no idea what they really do but you gotta whole lot to say

cosign, niggas stay mistaking the gods for the n.o.i
“Yakuban ancient scientist responsible for the creation of the White race”
ROFL this made my day
I know, I just spat my coffee through my nose reading that bit lol
IT SHOULD..IT’S PARTIALLY TRUE
Yeah if you believe sci-fi is true 🙂
white people are an inferior race… look in history. whites have only been civilized the past couple hundred years
Is this a magical history book that has been written with a magical pen?
Also, you can’t look in history.
If I walk around with a jesus piece on, does that mean I’m affiliated with Jesus? If I have those nike logos on my sneakers, does that mean I work at nike?
To answer your question………yes.
the point is, if you wear a Jesus piece, cross, or a flag, you have the right to question whether or not they are really into or a part of that, like for instance, many people just assume people are Christian just because they say god, when Lucifer is called god by his followers
you’re not Christian because mommy dragged you to church a couple of times while you live your life opposite to what the religion preaches
as for the cult/sect talk down there, there are more of those groups who claim Christianity than any other belief, like Jonestown, the comet people, the Texas standoff, the klan, the Catholic pedophile problem, the Bakers & Swaggarts of infidelity, the swindling brothers preaching for a dollar
way much more I can name before I can start on what Nation Of Gods and Earths have done, one thing was calm Harlem down after MLK got shot
well most of christianity is full of myths and spookisms and is everywhere, except within the bible, and celebrate jesus or nimrod on the same day. Is all about consumerism on set holidays.
Seems that people are quite shocked or should not be wearing this piece around his neck, this is the same dude who tried to pimp occupy wall street quiet the opposite from a poor righteous teacher in my opinion.
in truth, y’all won’t understand that many of the 5% have also studied Christianity, Buddhism, Islam, and the book of life
you won’t know 5% is a symbolism of a group that is awake and informed, trying to shake many out of the mental slavery
so it will not be surprising to see the ignorance spewed by many of you who have never had an interaction or studied this subject with people involved in it
that ignorance goes so deep, you’ll see 5 different churches on the same block all saying Christ and y’all won’t like each other

Oh stfu repeating the same shit and go back to bed.
Lol
If you believe in the Five-Percent shit, you might as well believe in Scientology. Different religion, same bullshit. Don’t matter your color, your history, or where your from… Remove your ego and you’ll see we all come from the same essence that connects all of us and all things together. The only real thing in life is love, the rest is all fiction. Open up your third eye.
Ya totally right man, ur words contains kinda enlightenment. But who ya talkin to?? MASSES!? Stupid muhfukaz..

PEACE
First of all, ‘member’ does not apply to the gods, either you are ‘god’ or you are not. Second, ODB (God bless the dead)’s son is an idiot and people need to stop quoting him in any serious/relevant discussion pertaining to the Nation of Gods, Earths and Babies.
PEACE
You are only a god if you have stopped taking your medication.
That lame as hell little remark was supposed to be funny?…fucking fruit
No, it was telling you to start medicating again for the safety of people around you. It was a very serious comment.
Yeah,and fucking the house pet or your little brother must be considered ‘normal ‘ in your family.
See, those kind of comments prove that you are mentally unstable. Please take whatever you have been described. It is in your best interests.
*prescribed
BRUUAHHHHHHHHHHHH dumb fuck, that black nut busted in your eye made you write ‘described’ instead of ‘prescribed’, fucking fruit, you LOST.
Now you are showing signs of delusion by stating you have won? What have you won, exactly? I corrected my mistake, too. You might want to read back your sentence to see what grammar mistakes you have made. Here is a clue – it is more than two.
Ignorance all the way around. Being stupid must be a 5% requirement.
Yeah dumb fuck, how long did it take to find your so-called ‘two’ mistakes? And it is not a question of ‘winning’, peckerwood, it is to show an prove that your cave/fruity ass had no grounds for the bullshit/inane/attempt at sarcasm but fell cardboard flat,idiotic, stupid, fruity, comment you posted above. And on this note go fuck yourself.
FAT JOE CALL HIMSELF THE DA GOD AS WELL….YALL JUST NEED TO STAY OFF JAY-Z DICK…IT OBVIOUS HE KNOW THE MATHEMATICS AND THE LESSONS JUST BY HEARING HIM RAP ..(ARM LEG LEG ARM HEAD)ALLAH ..HOV DONT NEED NOBODY TO COSIGN HIS AFFILIATION WITH NOTHING..SO NOW WHEN HE WEAR HIS JESUS PIECE ALL THE CHRISTIANS GONNA SAY HE DONT COME TO CHURCH(GTFOH)
Jay-Z aint a 5%er. Knowing the teachings and dickriding the 5% nation is different than being a 5%er. 5%ers are against devilishness and Jay-Z wore a hoodie with an Aleister Crowley quote. Aleister Crowley was a counter-culturalist heavily into magic, specifically ceremonial magic, poetry, and space. He called himself a prophet (similar to how Jay-Z calls himself Jehovah)… Jay-Z was smart enough to tie his wicked agenda into 5% lore & teachings, knowing the evil shit he does will deflect the blame from him and onto the 5% nation…therefore dissociating himself from the REAL group he’s down with. Basically, the 5% NOI is a shield for Jay-Z
And similar to how people in the 5% change their second names to allah and so forth. They all take from symbolism, faith, cults and mix it up to make it their own. It is all about control, making out as they are enlightened before taking your money.
SO TRUE!
jay zdon’t care about nobody but him self,not even his wife and child. HE IS ALL ABOUT MONEY.HE WORSHIPS HIMSELF AND MOENY.
JAY Z AINT NO 5%er… JAY Z IS THE 10% THAT 5%ers TALK ABOUT!!!
Jigga ain’t no 5%er, he a 1%er
ISLAM = I Self Lord And Master. Peace to the Gods and the Earths!
Haha always love to read some shit about those percenter retards.
All they have is faith in some BS + mental disease
Niggaz so stupid that you could pull out shit out of your ass and call it a gold, they would still steal it!
You a punk using social media to be disrespectful. Please come to brooklyn and tell me that I GOD ALLAH
