I am late to seeing this video, but on another forum it has the illumanti people going crazy.

I thought the video was pretty cool, but naturally people are flipping out over the images...

But it is interesting to note

The video begins with Kanye saying:
“Through me, the way into the suffering city,
Through me, the way to everlasting pain,
Abandon all hope, ye who enter here.”
This is an excerpt from Dante’s epic poem Inferno, specifically Canto III: The Gate of Hell.

So, how does Kanye doing Dante equal Illuminati?

I doubt Kanye and company are stupid with this.... they know people connect them with the Illumaniti and TBH I think thats what they want and why they constantly do controversial things like this.

I dont take them seriously.... they just want attention.

It's Dante as in Dante's Inferno, a sci-fi novel where Christianity's (false) doctrine about hell came about.

I know who Dante is and what he wrote. What specifically does this have to do with Illuminati?

This is shock value!, grant it the video was kinda cool imo

But yes, Kanye is not dumb he is playing people with this.

"Attention" is only part of it. Jay-Z & his RocNation crew are showing off their esoteric knowledge.

It's like the case of why it was easy for Kanye to go from "Jesus Christ" (as in the track Jesus Walks) to wearing the graven image of Horus around his neck. Despite being an Illuminati-driven pawn in the industry, Kanye was right in noticing that Christ was a myth and he was based on Horus and a few other ancient messiahs.

Oh never mind. I just realize that esoteric teachings may go over your head.

The Illuminati isn't real.

I think Attention is partial as well although I think its mostly attention. I just try not to past judgement on them but its very very hard not to when they make songs talking about the Devil, burning up crosses in front of churches, etc very disrespectful and not christian like as they like to portray. And it comes off more contrived than anything which is why I dont take it seriously or think this is something they really believe but it is still messed up how they exploit this whole Illumanit myth for money.

I like this point you raised:

Kanye made a song talking about Jesus and now turns around and exploits a controversial excerpt that talks about the Devil and hell.... I just think its sad because you got kids listening to this music and they dont have an understanding of what it is there listening to and the lyrics. I know there not role models and just rappers/singers (Kanye, JayZ, and company)but its these SAME celebrities being paraded around with Obama, with Oprah, and so forth and by default being presented like they are good role models..... it kinda makes you raise your right eye and not in a good way but I dont connect it with the Illumaniti myth specifically... it just goes to show regardless of the music these people are just being applauded because they have alot of money and because their popular not because of the quality of their music.

These people are being considered the highest in their fields and commendable people by America, the president etc but the REALITY is they make songs talking about the Devil and Inferno

America is DUMB

Damn you, Dan Brown!

Have people just said "fuck logic and common sense, I'm gonna demean a group of folks and call them evil and make any artist their leader because it's the truth"? I mean...

People make me sick.

THIS

Also... so kanye his music got a lot darker since his moms death.

Homeboy obviously has just gone through a lot, the break up during the graduation era & then the death of his mom, the break up with Amber Rose & then being hated for the Taylor Swift... even Obama calling him a jackass.

Kanye had a lot of demons & for awhile was one of the most hated people in entertainment.... So i wouldn't be suprised if homeboy like most humans got a few demons. But him worshiping demons? nah

Besides after getting with that K-hoe his music has become a lot more upbeat

Pretty much.

Beats me. Or a member of the Illuminati (which is not the same as Satanism). People SHOULD have the right to be whatever they wanna be unless the religion (which is what Satanism is, it's a religion) advocates something that they're against. That's why we have "choice" or that's what we're told.

If being honest is "the new rude", then this entire planet is good as f***ed.

Yes, I said it! "Jesus Christ" is a rip-off of other ancient messiahs, especially Horus & Mithra.

Do the research.
