Jay-Z is one of the most influential figures in the music industry today. The Rap mogul is also rumored to be a part of the Illuminati secret society. He has actually admitted that he is aware of the symbols that he has been flashing. In his song “Heaven” and music’s night of the year—the Grammys, Jay-Z is not about to shy away from his cause.

In “Heaven,” the lyrics refer to the Illuminati several times. (Lyrics from Rap Genius) “Conspiracy theorist screaming Illuminati, They can't believe this much skill is in the human body.” While he acknowledges the reference and appears to be irritated, Jay-Z keeps on his business of promoting Illuminati, occult and even symbols associated with Satanism. From npr.org:

“In the making-of video for “Run To Town,” he’s pictured wearing a sweatshirt with the phrase “do what thou wilt” printed across the chest.
Yes, that has very deep roots in modern occult culture,” Horowitz says. “The full expression is ‘Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.’ That was one of the key maxims of the British occultist Aleister Crowley. So when Jay-Z appears in a hoodie with that phrase on it in public, that’s exactly what he’s referencing.” Crowley has been associated with Satanism, although he has never directly admitted it.

The Daily Mail also established the links between Jay-Z and the OTO (Ordo Templi Orientis) which is an organization founded by Crowley and is described as ‘Luciferian.’ TDM states: “His clothing line, Rocawear, is shot through with OTO imagery such as the ‘all seeing eye’ in a triangle, the ‘eye of Horus’ (an ancient Egyptian symbol frequently referenced in occult texts) and the head of Baphomet (the horned, androgynous idol of Western occultism).”

Which brings us to this year’s Grammys. Jay-z is not one to pass up the best opportunity to promote his beliefs, would he? While the shocking performance of the night belonged to Katy Perry, Jay-Z’s acceptance speech which said(from IB Times): “I would like to thank God..a little” seemed like an provocation. The tweets did come:

Like 70% of the Grammys is just trolling Illuminati conspiracy theorists now, right?

Whether the Illuminati holds the music industry as a puppet depends on the other theories about the organization. It is not even a proven fact that it exists. While we are interested, we will continue to see more of Illuminati allusions from the so-called musicians.
