Jay Z Making White Folks Angry With His Five Percent Nation Bling (PHOTOS)
Jay Z just really loves being in controversial groups, huh? First the Illuminati and now the Five Percent Nation? He’s certainly a busy man. What’s next? Is he going to join the small group of people who think Shawn should have been with Topanga instead of Cory?
Photos captured Jay Z attending a basketball game with Beyonce last week. And Mr. Z was rocking a huge Five Percent Nation medallion. The thing was so big that he had to purchase a third ticket just to get it inside the building.
So what’s the deal with this Five Percent Nation? Why is everyone getting so angry? Well, apparently, some people in the group don’t like white people that much.
[more…]Michael Muhammad Knight wrote this in an essay for Vice…
“The first lesson I learned from the Five Percent was simple: F–k white people. Seriously. White people are devils.”
Knight also told the Post the following…
“The rationale is that the black man is God and created the universe, and is physically stronger and intellectually stronger and more righteous naturally.”
Now, some people claim that when they say “white people” they don’t actually mean white people. They believe there are deeper, hidden messages behind what they teach. It doesn’t come down to the color of your skin, but it has everything to do with your mentality.
A reporter asked Jay Z if the chain had any significance, and he responded with, “A little bit.” A representative for the group made it clear to the Post that the 44-year-old rapper is not an active member.
“Jay Z is not an active member — no one has vouched for him. It was always understood that you don’t wear the regalia if you don’t totally subscribe to the life.”
Well, this was a complete waste of time, huh? I’m not going to pretend to know a lot about this group. Do they actually believe white people are evil? I have no idea. The whole thing does interest me, so I will probably start doing some research.
But until then, I will keep my white mouth shut.
