Few genres have embraced the Nation Of Islam as much as Hip-Hop, which means many an MC has broken bread with The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan.
In addition to squashing the occasional beef and offering counsel, these 14 rappers who built with Minister Louis Farrakhan also understood the impact of some face time on social media.

Rick Ross
Since Rozay reportedly joined Farrakhan for dinner, perhaps he received some wise words about how to get those GDs off his back and how to avoid getting charged with pulling out his pistol on people.
Migos
During a recent trip to Atlanta, Farrakhan talked about the theme of the 20th Anniversary of the Million Man March. It appears he met every rapper under the sun in the A-Town, including Migos.
Young Thug
You know Farrakhan is really about saving the youth if he tells Young Thug, “You’re greater than me.” We’re just as confused as the brother posted in the middle of them.

Jim Jones
According to Capo himself, he felt an intimidating presence from the Fruit of Islam after mentioning Farrakhan in a struggle rap. Things were reportedly squashed after a cordial meeting.
Big Boi
As you can see, The Minister clearly made the rounds down in the A-Town.
Foxy Brown
Brother Minister has love for his sisters too, as he pulled Foxy Brown out of a crowd to acknowledge her during a public address.
Ludacris
Based on the time stamp from his Instagram, it looks like Luda met Farrakhan back in June. Whatever words were exchanged, Ludacris said he came away feeling “moved, challenged, and blessed.”
Ice Cube and Common
Given how they managed to respectively reach new levels of disrespect with songs directed towards each other, it stands to reason this picture wouldn’t be possible without Cube and Common meeting back in the day thanks to a meeting with Minister Farrakhan.
2 Chainz
It’s quite the compliment that Farrakhan said 2 Chainz “gives off a certain power presence.” And shout out his social media team for getting that @hairweavekiller handle correct.
Game
While the Honorable Minister undoubtedly shared some wise words with Game, even he hasn’t been able to help squash that beef with 50 Cent.
Birdman
This is probably the most respectable you’ll ever see Birdman look. Take it in.
Cee Lo
Given the tone of some of those Soul Food verses, you’d have to think Cee Lo was heavy into Farrakhan before becoming the kindler, gentler version of himself we know today.
Big K.R.I.T.
Mississippi native Big K.R.I.T. summed it up best by saying he was honored to break bread with someone who was filled with so much passion for the people.
Talib Kweli
The assumption is a lot of knowledge was exchanged before and after this photo was taken.
