The head of the Nation of Islam, Minister Louis Farrakhan, met politicians, pastors and a police chief during his visit to Detroit last week.

But it’s his unprecedented meeting with rapper Eminem over a 2 1/2-hour dinner in his Detroit hotel room that has garnered the most attention.

Farrakhan also had some strident words in his talk against society, criticizing white people for their actions historically, some Jewish people and same-sex marriage. Citing Biblical history, he said that America would face the wrath of God if it didn’t become righteous.

“I represent the Messiah,” Farrakhan said to the crowd. “I represent the Mahdi. I represent a man who comes to end this world. I hate this world ... I hate a world where everything is upside down. ... I am with Jesus Christ to destroy it.”

Jay Z isn’t going to like the words Minister Louis Farrakhan has for him.

The Nation of Islam leader sat down for an interview with Hip Hop Since 1987 earlier this month to discuss many hot topics, one being Jay Z. According to Farrakhan, Hov is a “good manager” who should tell Beyonce to stay out of her famous bodysuits and fashion numbers since men can’t help but look in her direction. Instead, he wants to see the singer covered up.

“You have to educate the managers. Jay Z is a good man. Jay Z is a good manager. But now, your woman is on display. Do you want men looking at your woman, being tempted by your woman, to make advances at your woman?” Farrakhan said. He also went on to extend his advice to other notable black women in the music industry.

“Who wouldn’t want to be with Rihanna? Who wouldn’t want to be with Nicki Minaj? But you strip them then their body is being used as the tool of the degradation of a woman and the subjection of a man,” he continued

Other than the fact that some people who rightly condemn Oral Roberts support Louis Farrakhan.

That, and Minister Farrakhan is in the news today.
