Jay-Z causes controversy by wearing gaudy medallion of 'Five Percent Nation' group who believe whites are 'wicked and weak'

• The Brooklyn-born rapper wore a medallion representing the Five Percent Nation at a Nets game last week

• One of the main tenets of the Nation of Islam offshoot is that white people are 'weak and wicked' and that black men hold the power of God

• When asked if the medallion holds any importance to him, Jay-Z said: 'A little bit'

• Jay-Z was spotted wearing the nation's symbol last year while giving radio interviews for his new album, Magna Carta Holy Grail

• A representative for the Five-Percenters said Jay-Z is not an active member and shouldn't be wearing regalia unless he subscribes to their beliefs

Jay-Z raised eyebrows at the Barclay's Center last week when he wore a medallion symbolizing the Five Percent Nation.

The Brooklyn-born rapper was sitting court-side at a Nets game on Tuesday with wife Beyonce when he was snapped wearing the controversial symbol.

One of the core tenants of the Five Percent Nation - an off-shoot of the Nation of Islam - is that white people are 'wicked and inferior' to black men.

When asked by a reporter whether the medallion is meaningful to him, Jay-Z shrugged and said 'A little bit'.

This isn't the first time that the rapper has been connected to the Five-Percenters.

He was photographed wearing another similar medallion while giving radio interviews for his album Magna Carta Holy Grail last summer.

And in 'Heaven' a track on that album, Jay-Z references the Five-Percenters acronym for Allah by rapping 'Arm leg leg arm head'.

The Five Percent Nation was founded in 1963 by Clarence Smith, a former student of Malcolm X.

Propaganda is amazingly effective.

If white women are a status symbol, then it is hypocritical to demonize whites when their women give them status. Black men have their own racism which makes them think crazy irrational things. A part of that thinking is the idea of getting over on white men, hating the entire white race and being attracted to white women. As I have heard my black friends say, “That’s messed up, man!”

Racism is irrational. To me skin color is God’s paint job. And cultural differences are the flavor. God made life an adventure—not another “boring day in paradise.”

Sometimes the truth hurts...like a dagger in the heart. I still cannot put my finger on ONE black-run nation that is a magnet for ingenuity and a template for cultural, social, and scientific advancement.

They were handed Rhodesia and South Africa gift-wrapped, and turned those nations into 3rd world plague-infested cessspools.

So they’re showing their “dominance” over white men by taking fat, fugly, and liberal nutcase white women?

In my mind...that’s a favor.
