They should regard me as what I am. I am a spiritual leader and teacher.

Everything that I'm attempting to do is based on my understanding of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad and what he wanted for his people.

Anarchy may await America, due to the daily injustices suffered by the people.

If we don't make earnest moves toward real solutions, then each day we move one day closer to revolution and anarchy in this country. This is the sad, and yet potentially joyous, state of America.

Without an advocate for the poor, without a new state of mind in America, the country lies on the brink of anarchy.

Louis Farrakhan

'I'm an advocate for peace,' claims rapper as he appears at US religious group convention

Rapper Snoop Dogg (http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/snoopdogg) surprised fans and reporters alike this weekend by revealing he has joined the Nation of Islam. Speaking at the religious group's Saviours' Day convention in Chicago, the 37-year-old praised the group's supreme minister and national representative Louis Farrakhan. It is reported by the Associated Press that he also made a donation to the group of $1,000.

Snoop Dogg, real name Calvin Broadus, talked about his reasons for joining the religious group in relatively loose terms. "I'm an advocate for peace. I've been in the peace movement ever since I've been making music," he told followers. "My whole thing is not about really trying to push my thing on you. It's just about the way I live, and I live how I'm supposed to live as far as doing what's right and representing what's right. That's why I was here today."

The Nation of Islam was founded in 1930 with the aim of promoting the conditions of black Americans. The group's most famous convert is activist Malcolm X.

Snoop Dogg's career has spanned nearly two decades and has been as controversial as it has been successful. He has been arrested numerous times, mainly for possession of marijuana, and was charged as an accomplice to the murder of Phillip Woldermarian in 1993. The rapper was found not guilty.

He sought to reinvent himself as a family man with the recent reality show Snoop Dogg's Father Hood, which portrays his domestic side along with his wife and three children. However, he was prevented from entering the UK in 2007 following a previous violent incident at Heathrow airport.

Discussing his religious beliefs at this weekend's Nation of Islam event, the Doggystyle rapper referred to himself as the "leader of the hip-hop community" and hinted that his affiliation with the group is not new. "It's about seeing yourself and what you can do to better the situation," Broadus said. "We're doing a lot of wrongs among ourselves that need correcting."

Snoop Dogg would not say when he had joined Nation of Islam

The rapper, who described himself as the "leader of the hip-hop community", told followers he would share what he learned with other musicians.

He told reporters that he joined the group because he was "doing what's right and representing what's right".

It preaches self-reliance for black people within an Islamic framework.

At Sunday's event, the rapper sat on stage while Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan gave a speech.

He said afterwards that listening to the speech from Mr Farrakhan was "about a mirror - it's about looking at yourself".

He added: "We're doing a lot of wrongs among ourselves that need correcting."

When asked if he had joined the movement he said: "I'm already in the Nation, that's why I'm here.

"I'm an advocate for peace, I've been in the peace movement ever since I've been making music.

"My whole thing is not about really trying to push my thing on you.

"It's just about the way I live, and I live how I'm supposed to live as far as doing what's right and representing what's right - that's why I was here today."

He would not say when he had joined the Nation of Islam.

Other rappers previously involved with the movement include NWA star-turned-actor Ice Cube.

Where does Islam stand on pornography?

Coz The Dog has been putting out stick movies for years.

Wonder how he reconciles his religious beliefs with his porn-peddling beliefs.

Oh yeah...and there's also the possibility that the Nation of Islam and Snoop Doggy Dog are both completely full of shit.

There's always that.

I don't think they would mind.:D

[meksar]

The Nation of Islam is an Illuminati front,it was designed to give these white supremacist groups a legitimate opponent.What we have also is the black Hebrew Israelite movement which was not started by the Illuminati and is a threat to them,i believe this movement has been infiltrated though as these guys are telling the truth but some seem to be very racist and ignorant(even though there are some white people who deserve it).

Watch these vids and see what kind of a man Snoop really is,he is just another Zionist controlled pussy who will probably pretend to speak on Zionism now he is part of the N.O.I.

Snoop Dog is the sort of total fucking pussy behind the persona that I can imagine being lead with a look of utter terror in his eyes into a meeting room at his record label by a couple of intelligence operatives who then proceed to explain to him in long and precise detail his new role in working for an agenda to eat babies and enslave mankind in return for all sorts of privileges and immunities. He then blinks several times and mutters "A'ight."

Hmm. What does that suggest to you?

[dhama_initiative]

1 - they were nwo too

2 - they simply saw the advantage in duetting with a popular star

3 - they did not know

4 - snoop is a good guy really

[hellosatellites]

Sometimes, you gotta say faggot, just watch out for the thought police. Faggot suits snoop dog just fine, he has sold out even in commercial music terms. He talks about bitches and this and that, how ironic.

The noi would have nothing against these things, neither would malcolm x. There is nothing in their culture that would contradict what snoop does or who he appears to be.
