Former Drug Dealer & Rapper Denies Jesus
This is the old man that our young boys look up to. Unbelievable. More and more parents are tuning into the message that non-Christian rappers like Jay Z is sending their children. Some have even bought the book Jesus and Jigga from this website to get a better handle on what their kids are listening to.
If you play a single titled “Interlude” backwards, Jay Z says “Murder Murder Jesus 666. And in “Empire State of Mind” Jay Z raps “Jesus can’t save you, life starts when the church ends.”
So far Jay Z has not commented on this controversy and the public outrage is building against him.
Edited:
An industry insider just alerted me to the fact that in “Empire State Of Mind” Jay Z raps “If Jesus payin’ LeBron, I’m payin’ Dwyane Wade.” It doesn’t matter if he’s saying “playin’” or “payin’.” The point is Dwyane Wade plays for the Miami Heat — as in hot like hail!
Grandpa Jay Z performed live at the 1st Mariner Arena in Baltimore last night. No word on if his wife Beyonce attended the concert. I can’t believe that a grown woman would marry a 40-year-old man who doesn’t know how to dress himself. This is beyond ridiculous. Would Jay Z go to a board meeting dressed like this?

first of all rappers should not be raising your children YOU should. Secondly, for a christian household idol worshiping is a no go so this shouldn’t be a topic..and who takes the time to play music backwards JUST to find something on someone?
CAUSE I’M FROM NEW YORK!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jesus over Jigga. Who wrote that? How about Sandra over Sanity? I kid, I kid.
I am interested in this whole back masking(playing the song backwards) thing because I wanna hear if it really says what people say(did some research but never got around to trying it)…….. But I ain’t biting the bait today nuh uh I’m gonna save my comments because everyone should know where I stand but I’ll just say ……….. Next Post plz
I personally think Jigga been sold his soul.
Whateva!
@2bme … AGREE !!!
And Jiggles dresses JUST LIKE my 10 year-old nephews BUT my nephews ties their shoes and wear their pants above their BUTT
Cosign with post 1 and 2 .
Maybe because she is a twentythirty year old who still lets her mama dress her.
I don’t discriminate based on religon if hes not christian so what I listen to his cds for entertainment I listen to my pastor for spiritual guidance.
Now black folks can finally say they stole something from white people because they said that same backwords song stuff about some rock group
Cause I’m from New York!!!!!!!!!
Isc that performance was moved to Thurs how u n NY n don’t know that
In JESUS name I
AMEN
@wiggy
THAT’S actually a common-practice amongst YT Rock-n-Roll bands dating back to the 60’s & 70’s (Real)
not today
@wiggy2272003
So do it not bother you a little bit when he says stuff about God? I understand what your saying about your pastor, but I tend to get uncomfortable when those parts come up because I still feel like that’s not right and I can’t rap along with that cuz I totally don’t agree, and some songs i know i don’t agree with but i like em and it’s not referencing God negatively… Kanye west is another..His line in a song
I got Jesus on the chain and that don’t mean shyt…
I can’t get with that. I don’t care if he’s not my pastor..
Damn…when did his music get played backwards?
He was moving around and his pants fell down…he doesn’t wear his pants saggy!!!
If an entertainer is successful why does that have to mean they sold their soul to the devil? Why can’t that be their blessing from God?
I heard about Jay-Z and this whole free mason and illuminati stuff, and the ish is crazy, but I could care less what he or Bey does. I don’t listen to these two anyway.
On the other hand, neither myself or children will worship no man.
Hello All. For what it’s worth, I CAN’T WAIT ’til our young men (and old ones like JayZ) get tired of looking stupid and jacked up with their belts round their thighs. Like I said, our young men tend to wear their clothes 3 sizes too big and the women, 3 sizes too little. All they need to do is look in a three way mirror. I’m just saying, for what it’s worth! Peaceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
Ok fam I am going to be honest. I don’t know what the heck he says. I just like the choruses(sp) and the beats. I do not expect a rapper to be spiritual unless I listen to gospel rap and I teach my children right and wrong. Wouldn’t want them sheltered and then get to college and wild out.
@LJ
When I WAS a shorty in the 70’s I KNEW some YT-boys that did ACID and played the records backwards for Giggles-n-Laughs… No I didn’t do acid but I WAS just sitting there tripping ON THEM !!!
Uhm *raising hand* I have a question.
Can you play a CD backwards?
did he release BP3 on vinal (sp) how do they know what the song/intro says backwards.
I think Kanye meant or I took it to mean that having Jesus or a cross around your neck don’t mean anything if u r not living right now I cld be wrong that has happened before
@Shannon
NORMALLY BLESSING FROM GOD IS OF GOD…meaning when your walking with God it shows inside & out….you wouldnt be walking around spewing hate lyrics….thats the problem people are confused about the blessing (i blame mega churches) lol you cant be half in and half out
I THINK JAYZ HATES JESUS BECAUSE HE MADE HIM IN THE IMAGE OF A CAMEL INSTEAD OF A MAN!
^^^^^^^^^^^^

LMAO…..me too
LOL elove. just for fun though right? sounds like something kids do when they high off of that “billy billy green green”
im sure yall werent specifically listening to find hidden messages about devil worshiping
@fly

@daisy i was just going to respond to toosexy about that line and I was thinking that Kanye meant that.
But Kanye has some good quotes.. “We rappers are role models we rap we don’t think”
Another Sad Day on Sandrarose.com……………..Ya’ll need help!!!!!!!
@ E, so you saying you actually heard these rock bands songs backwards and heard the devil praise or whatever? Or are you going by rumours like this one about Jay-z. Because the special I saw about it asked some of these people in the bands and they were all denied it and said they just didn’t deny it then because it gave them publicity.

““““““““““““““““““““““““`
a long time ago..lol, i wonder what damon dash thinks
I would love to hear this for myself before I jump on the Jay-Z Devil Worshiper bandwagon.
I am willing to bet that if it really does say that Matthew is going to make Beyonce distance herself from Jay-Z. Matthew cannot afford for Beyonce to lose her Stans now that he is going to be paying child support or hush money to his sidepiece. One devil worshiper is not going to stop Beyonce’s show. LOL.
LOL @ iscream. I was going to ask the same question. How do you play a CD backwards?
I’m not sure sure what being from New York has to do with it. If you like it you like it of you don’t you don’t. I’m from The Bronx. I don’t listen to him. Neither do my kids, but I’ve said this before. I used to love me some Nas though and Onyx. (Rapping)” I’m a b-boy standing in my b-boy stance. Hurry-up and give me the microphone…..” That was my joint.
I could care less whether or not Jay Z believes Jesus can or can’t save. God forces His will upon no man, so neither can we. He alone has to deal with his issues. I like some of his music I won’t lie, but when it comes to him talking out of the side of his neck about Jesus…. We’ll I take that kind of personal. Because I believe that Jesus really did bare all of our sins then it feels like a slight to me personally when you talk about my savior. But hey… That’s just my opinion, to each his own.
u cant play the actual cd backwards, but if u have the mp3 file, and a music editing program im sure u could.
There is NO JESUS. There is NO GOD. It’s all a Giant Lie to control DUMMIES. So, dummies, STAY CONTROLLED. We don’t want everyone waking up anyway because most of you all NEED TO BE CONTROLLED.
Jay-Z & Beyonce, stay Free and keep Enjoying every bit of your life!!!
@Daisy…that could be, but he goes on to say
cuz when the jesus peice can’t bring me peace…..
that really doesn’t sound like someone not living right, but I could be wrong. seems like he has no faith in what he wearing and he’s confused… I think people get confused and think when something terrible happens in their life that God must not be able…
@Shannon..not every entertainer…but when people have to do dirty and grimey things to get where they are….that’s selling your soul…I believe in that because God speaks on it…Your soul only has two destinations..Heaven(God) or Hell(Satan) I don’t know that for sure about Jay-Z, but I have always heard these little rumors about him, but now I catch little sayings in his songs…LIke Peace God.
@rhiannon…that’s how I feel..I take it personal…really.. I can’t rap that knowing he talking side ways about my Father..I just pray for people like Racheal RAy..for the day will come when..EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW AND EVERY TONGUE SHALL CONFESS.

“““““““““““““““““`
how can it be a blessing from GOD when said rapper is openly masonic(last time freemasons are not and cannot be christians)
Every Mason does not worship the devil. Yes they are a very powerful organization with a lot of secrets. I’m not sure about every single Mason but the ones in my family and community happen to be men who love God.
toosexy post the song so we can break it on down. i think daisy is right, sounds plausable to me
@rhiannon and african dude…that is true I was watching that on history channel and they stated that Christians can not be freemason..
IF ITS JUST ENTERTAINMENT I’D LIKE TO REQUEST HE SWITCH IT UP AND REPLACE THE JESUS WITH ALLAH AND SEE HOW FAR THAT GETS HIM….
@ladyjustice…. That song by kanye west… I put on the one with him and jeezy..and Jay-z the new york song and the we run this town tonight.. I don’t support jayz or kanye west.
@too I am a Kanye stan so I am familiar with that song and lyrics. Kanye has made questionable comments about Jesus in interviews both before n after his mothers death
@mrskay I sent u the new mbr questions n the other post
Hey GOAT *waving* I knew u wld pop up for a min anyway
lol toosexy did you quote a kanye line when thats the man who wrote jesus walks and got major radio play on hiphop stations about a song about jesus. and if you listen to a body of a song you get a feel for what they saying and not just one line that you misinterpret. i wanna know who could play something backwards and who smart enough to record something forward that says one thing clearly and can be played backwards and say something else entirely so u should clearly hear redrum redum sesup xis xis xis lol getdafugouttaheeaa
And, there is no such thang as one selling their soul. You all are so foolish and can not think for your very own selves! Shame in 2009 that people of colour still is waiting on some god or jesus after 2000 years. If I told you that I’m going to give you a rolls royce with 9-trillon dollars inside, you wouldn’t wait past 4 hours for me to return, so why are dummies waiting for thousands of years for the return of A LIE?
Dont fall for it guys
@eastpointvet….we can talk but dont’ get smart…like i said the man could be confused since his mom died….now one of his stans just said he has made comments before and after that were sideways..and if you wanna get technical God said that the anti-christ would come in his name also..
I wont acknowledge that person they have a bigger problem than Sean Carter at least he who know who God is this girl
Anybody want sum of my
I see
in 5 4 3 2 1 
Too Sexy,
No it doesn’t and plus things are taken out of context
Like Kanyes lines to me mean people wear a christian necklace but don’t live a christian life. Thats what I took it to mean. As far as Jay I truly don’t understand what he means so I won’t speak on it but I’m sure he will after all this.
If this soul selling and devil worshiping is so powerful why do all the accused deny and hide it? If someone is not scared of God who would they scared of? Thats why I tend to not believe these stories.
Wow okay and Charles got banned for what again? Yeah okay!
@ whatdoesitmatter
The chorus of the song is “I’m from New York. Concreate jungle where dreams are made of there’s nothing you can do. Here in New York. Theses streets… ” It was said as a line in the song. Not like I support him because I’m from New York.
@toosexy
Hold up Kanye ain’t come in Jesus name he just made a good song and filled the void of what hip hop was missing Kanye can’t be the anti-christ that shouldn’t even be in the same sentence. In my opinion and I am a Christian I feel everyone gets lost once and a while and being a Christian isn’t easy and like I said before if it was then everyone would be one.
Rachel, so is it safe to say that u are an athiest?
@RachelRachel People who argue to convince someone of something usually aren’t very convinced themselves. With that being said, unless you’ve experienced the power of God then you can’t tell me my God ain’t real!! As toosexy stated EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW AND TONGUE SHALL CONFESS!! Have you ever heard of the saying.. If your living like there’s no God you better be sure?? I hope you’re 100.
@wiggy..yes it could def. mean that. everyone has a opinion, To me what he says after that..if the jesus peice can’t bring me peace….and really since people would get so many interpretations..WHY SAY IT….some children might not try to make it right or figure it out to be good. They might take it just like he said it. I don’t know but I just know where I stand and I won’t be swayed..
GOTTA GO….PHILOSOPHY CLASS STARTS MONDAY AND IM, TRYING TO STAY AHEAD! DAISY I GOT U IM GONNA EMAIL YOUR YAHOO ADDRESS WHEN IM DONE! I HOPE YOU HAVENT HAD ANY DISCUSSIONS YET!
@missy…I didnt say that ….I have no thought about that I was making a point.. to someone else…believe me I don’t think kanye has enough power to be the anti-christ…
I’m with you rhiannon. Jay’s worship/relationship or lack there of with GOD isn’t going to get me into heaven. I know where I stand and NOBODY will be able to change my beliefs!!!!
@missy
In my opinion and I am a Christian I feel everyone gets lost once and a while and being a Christian isn’t easy and like I said before if it was then everyone would be one.

That was 4 iscream
Rachel…with all respect…I’m not a religious person per se. I believe in God in whatever way people worship HIM. Muslims, Christians, Jews, we all have the same God. It’s just the prophets (Jesus, Muhammad etc.) that we disagree on. However, I don’t see the point in disrespecting people for their beliefs and calling them fools because they are not atheist like yourself. If you believe, then cool, if you don’t then cool also but what’s not cool is the way in which you’re calling believers dummies for not having the same views as you.
@61flyqtnvaAKAlilmissprissy i AGREE BUT JUST LIKE THE LORD HAS HIS FOLLOWERS SO DO SATAN…SO NO EVERYBODY WOULD NOT BE. BUT I TOTALLY AGREE, I AM a christian and i fall short, but THANK GOD I AT LEAST KNOW THERE’S A GOD ALONG WITH ALL DIFFERENT PEOPLE NOT JUST BLACKS…
IF you want to know Masonic secrets, go to a library and check out one of their many books on it, or watch the History channel - it isn’t very secret, anymore.
I don’t like Jay Z. I don’t get the hype. He’s just a ****y rapper - they come a dime a dozen.
@iscream,
my bad. that just goes to show you how much i know about his music. i stand corrected.
I don’t support him BECAUSE I’m from NY I am just proud that a true hip hop artist born and raised in NY the birthplace is getting so much shine they resort to these rumours. I love my city(from afar) and have many reasons to be proud of it JayZ and Real Hip-hop are just a few.
Wow…wow…wow remember that sound bite from wendy’s radio show? That’s all I have 2 say…
an athiest that worships beyonce. who would ever thunk it
woulda*
In the words of Yolanda Adams.. U can’t tell me that God isn’t real cause I got the VICTORY n that’s why I’m still here!!! CHURCH
@melinla
What sound bite?
Bophet….is what they call him.
not in the mood today. this is my quiet exit. peace, until tomorrow.
@ melinla
What was the sound bite from Wendy’s radio show?
@ melinla
*Just curious*
For the record that is a myth,lie,bunch of crap, and whatever else I can think of. In order to be a Mason you have to believe in a higher being… YOU CAN NOT WORSHIP THE DEVIL OR BE A NON BELIEVER OF CHRIST. Sorry for the caps.
@ReadtheBlog… So true.. It’s a fraternity like anyother Fraternity, there are no secrets to Masonry, but it does have secrets.
In order to be a mason or a eastern star on of the first thins you are asked is whether or not you believe in a higher being. Most of the teaching of the eastern stars are based around the women in the bible. You must believe in God to become a part of either.
we’ll know the truth about all of this calamity soon enough
get ready.
toosexy
thats because attheendoftheday a chain, cross none of that means anything its about your faith and relationship and works no religious trinket can save you if you not aligning your life with what you believe and thats what kanye meant and jay z your life does start when the church ends just attending church wont bring you salvation either
@rhiannon, ( We are not a clique LOL) but you are correct, in what you have stated.
It was Charlamange (sp) saying “Wow…wow…wow” very astonished and amazed about what was being said at the time…. that’s how I feel about some of this tomfoolery being spread in here. What do you means there’s no Jesus??? I just got finished talking to him!!!!!!
oh yeah and I agree with east on #82
@artistman999 Ha! Ha!
@LadyJ
I know who would believe an atheists would like Beyonce but i’m gonna ignore her.
anyway….. I agree with iscream #53 about charles.
@ Melina it was World (who ever he is) who did the Wow on Wendy show.
Toosexy
You ask why ask it? My opinion is thats what true artists do, question life and express their opinions and feelings.
It’s videos on you tube about all that stuff with Jay-Z and it’s even something about Beyonce and her Crazy in Love video.
Everybody has their own beliefs regarding religion, and I only care about what I believe.
I spoke to him this morning
I never liked Camel. I always thought he bit Biggie’s style. I am done with Camel, Sasha, Rhi Rhi and their demons - Rain Man and Young.
Pray for Kanye. He has not gone to the dark side yet, but he does have one foot over their.
PAGING MUNCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dayum…I’m back
I’m not biting into this convo. It’s getting old. Some of yall are off the chain though. I mean I question sanity.
What up Daisy….no click
Co-sign #82…..no clique
@LJ… YEAH for fun, they Pops & uncles were industry execs and sound engineers and THEY told them about the backwards thing SO OF COURSE these YT Acid-heads wanted to hear for themselves
@wiggy
YES I ACTUALLY heard what was being said PLAYED BACKWARDS… AGAIN It was a COMMON PRACTICE for the YT Rockers. Because of my elder relatives I WAS INTO all kinds of music and BANDS were the ones I gravitated too the MOST - Black and White
Whaddup @Goat… BAMA looking kinda shakey (The Gators also)
@ the UPDATE. Sandra you really don’t read the coments on your board. We already had this talk on Friday.
I don’t know if he is saying Jezzy or Jesus.
I need to hear it played backwards 
“The point is Dwyane Wade plays for the Miami Heat — as in hot like hail!”
——
I’m sorry I know this is a serious issue but I didn’t think of it like that so what does the cavaliers have to do with it.
Sandra… you made me dust off the keyboard for this… I haven’t posted here in a very long time…anywho!!
Backwards..Are you serious…Where’s the audio???
BTW Jays music… it’s all about your interpretation of it…the actual verse is below…He’s talking about sinful girls in the City of NY.
The city of sin is a pity on a whim,
Good girls gone bad, the cities filled with them,
Mommy took a bus trip and now she got her bust out,
Everybody ride her, just like a bus route,
Hail Mary to the city, your a Virgin,
And Jesus can’t save you, life starts when the church ends,
Denies Jesus…wearing his Jesus piece…NOT. Read the lyrics…he also mentions Eve in the song!
lol thats funny and he say Jeezy
Wow E like who? I wanna check it out. Oh and please see # 46
Did I detect a tone with the again? Thought we were cool like dat? I know from the past you can give it and take it.
ummm the line is “if Jeezy’s” ok! get it right!!!
and LIFE does start when church ends… You go to church to get the word, but its when you leave those doors that you must implement what you have heard!!!!!
Quit looking for mf’s that you DO NOT know to save you/raise your children… if you think he’s so bad pray for him, cause making up silly **** is not the business!!!
@eastpointe..I know that and agree…I am not a religious person for as just playing church..you can go to church eveery sunday and not have a relationship with God…I can’t be swayed either way from what I believe whatevera jay-z believes or kanye that’s up to them .. just pray for all us ..cuz I got my own stuff to straigten out.
SMH….
all I know is
Jayz can’t save anybody, so what does it matter.
What up E-Love……………Yeah Bama needs to tighten up…..I would like to see Star Jackson get a chance to do his thang…cause ole boy thats Qb’in now ain’t doing it…..The coaching staff needs to tighten up too with some of the play callin……hopefully this bye week will help….Yeah I think Bama gonna get Florida dis year…….
Wow some people are just looking for arguments, SMH….
@wiggy… NAW that was for the others that might not have read my first comment (WE Real KOOL !!!)
Black Sabbath, Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin among others…
THESE were LP(s)-Albums (First Print)… My relatives & friends elders had SOME serious records collections
agree w/comment#104
HI SHEEP! SANDRA GOT HER A REAL FLOCK HERE!
#1 If you play a single titled “Interlude” backwards, Jay Z says “Murder Murder Jesus 666.
VERY FUNNY BUT NOT TRUE. MAYBE YOU AND YOUR SHEEPLE SHOULD FIND OUT WHO DJ DANGERMOUSE IS. HE REMIXED THE BLACK ALBUM AND CALLED IT THE GREY ALBUM.
AS FAR AS THE INSIDER LINE DROPPING, THE TOLD YOU DEAD AZZ WRONG. THE LINE GOES ” IF JEEZY PAING LEBRON, I’M PAYIN D WADE.”
YOU ARE SO FUNNY WHEN IT COMES TO THIS MAN!
1st of all, for any one to assume that Jayz, or any rapper for that matter, can be part of the Freemasons or Illuminati is plain stupid. Do alittle research and you’ll know that these secret societies have standards.
And nor the Freemasons or Illuminati worship the devil. AGAIN..DO YOUR RESEARCH!
I think it’s quite sad that people are still placing judgment on people based on what god they believe in. If Jayz was an athiest…so what? Will it stop you from going to church on sunday.
And if it does affect you that he is, possibly and athiest, you should really re-evaluate every single artist you listen too bc they probably sin 24 hrs a day.
**BRING CHARLES BACK!**
