Two years ago, Lil Wayne threatened to kidnap Beyonce’ in a song entitled, “It’s Good”. Now, after years of thoughtful introspection and meditation in a hyperbolic chamber, Jay has finally countered in his newly released song, “La Familia.” Apparently, if you kidnap Bey, he’ll kidnap your whole family. Yawn. If you want to know the details, Google it. But if you are that concerned with the tiffs of wealthy men, then this is probably old news to you, anyway.

Their beef is not impressive. The notion of two well paid grown men arguing through song is patently absurd. It’s like the fight scenes in West Side Story, only it’s kind of real.

Only after I read the comments of the story did I realize that the Ilumaniti was involved. If you don’t know what they are, then join the club. Nobody does; probably not even some of its members. I’ve seen shows about them and I still don’t know.

This is only a guess. If your average Freemason is a little league baseball player, then the members of the Ilumaniti are professional ballers. Their secrets stay secret. Their rituals are sanctified in the blood of beautiful virgins, and their conspiracies change the course of history. And apparently they have been doing a serious recruiting drive in the Black community. Because Jay Z and Lil Wayne are both members. So’s Bey, and probably Blue Ivy, too.

This beef is Godzilla vs Gammera of the Ilumaniti. Two devil worshiping, baby sacrificing titans, going at it for all the world to see. It’s almost as if they are twenty stories over Atlanta instead of playing occasionally in cars as they pass by.

Kanye? He’s in it. Oprah? Most def! What about Mos Def? Probably not, but Nicki Manaj and Rick Ross are all up in it. People believe this. Really.
The thing is, I believe in the good ole back room conspiracy as much as the next guy. I even kind of believe in the Ilumaniti. But, this is getting old. Does every mega rich Black person hit big by joining a shadowy organization? Hell no. They do it the same way everyone else does. Hard work, some luck, maybe a bit of hustling and a metric ton of ambition. And, in a whole lot of cases, moral compromise. A lot of moral compromise.
(I am about to cloak fact in sarcasm in 3…2…1…) Okay. So the music industry is actually run by a bunch of fat cats with thick cigars. You know, the same ones who own the prison  industry. And so they need some guys to go out there and promote a lifestyle that encourages people to go to prison. Because every product needs a commercial. So, technically, Lil Wayne did sell his soul to the shadowy figures, because he’s one of those guys who float the idea of prison as a right of passage. But does that mean he is in the Ilumaniti? Are the Boy Scouts a branch of the Special Forces? I doubt if he even knows where they meet.
What does this have to do with the Apocalypse? Probably nothing. Maybe everything. After all, this is the Ilumaniti. It could be that Beyonce’s kidnapping and ultimate rescue are the 27th sign of the end times.
Just in case, check this out. KRS1 on the Ilumaniti.
