Apollo The Great - "Call It Quits" (Directed by Jimmy Giambrone)

I got this sent to my inbox and I had to share it, this is dope, great lyrics, production and something different from the norm.



The newest excitement to take hold of things for his dormant rap scene is the 20 year old, Camden, NJ emcee, Apollo The Great. After minimal time on the surface, he has already opened for Jadakiss (footage coming soon) where fans were chanting his name before he took the stage. See his video below for the lead single from H.I.M. 2, "Call It Quits" prod. by YFame and directed by Jimmy Giambrone (Sean Price, Young Chris, Cymarshall Law, Reef the Lost Cauze).

Thanks to Jon Feldman

Occult Symbolism: Kanye West's Horus Chain

Okay, now this kind of blatancy is just scary on various levels.  What was thought to be an obnoxiously large Jesus piece hanging from Kanye's neck during his comeback performance at the BET Awards was actually the head of the Egyptian/Freemason god Horus.  This explains his Moses-like performance that could have easily passed for a scene from the Prince Of Egypt.  Probably the most disturbing aspect of Kanye's latest fashion jewelry is that he is notoriously known for his Jesus pieces, which he speaks of frequently in his lyrics as a representation of his faith.  So for him to make the transition of wearing a Jesus chain to a Horus chain, speaks many volumes.  I have a strong feeling many of these musicians are going to be a lot more blatent very very soon. (view below for detailed pictures of Kanye's chain)

Drake Pledges Occult Allegiance At BET Awards

With what seemed like a stellar year for Aubrey "Drake" Graham, it would seem only fitting to have the young rap star perform at this years' BET Awards.  Not only does Drake show out during his performance, but he also shows the world where his allegiance lies within the industry.  It was assumed that with Drake bringing out Young Jeezy as a surprise guest they would perform their hit record from his album.  On the contrary, the Jay-Z mentored duo decides to perform the (never heard before) remix to Young Jeezy's latest single, "Lose My Mind".  During the song, Drake's words along with his apparel gives us a strong clue as to who is influencing him.

"All seeing eye, My eyes seen it all"

This is not too surprising, seeing as how Drake's family history is no stranger to the darker side of the music industry.  Drake's father was Dennis Graham, a drummer for rock legend Jerry Lee Lewis.  

Aside from being a famous rock musician, Jerry Lee Lewis was also a devout satanist.  He (among many other rock artists at that time) believed his soul was possessed and that he had signed his name over to the Devil for fame (4:34 mark)

It also doesn't help that proven rumored rap satanist, Jay-Z, has taken the young emcee under his wing lately.  He even provides a fatherly verse on Drake's song "Light Up", where he still takes time to mention that he is always "connected to a higher power".  I'm sure as Drake's career progresses, so will his allegiance to the occult.

"I'm easily influenced by the n*ggas I'm around" - Drake

J. Cole Defends Jay-Z Devil Worship Rumors

One thing that needs to be understood about these artists "denying" occult allegations (KRS-One, Talib Kweli, Jay-Z, etc), is that they are all gifted at the ability of using their words.  For an artist like J. Cole, that fact applies even moreso.  Every interview that I have seen him in, J. Cole chooses his words very carefully so that people will not misconstrue them.  And with a degree in mass communications, it would be hard for an interviewer to succeed at doing so.  As Jenny Boom asks Cole about the "Jay-Z devil worshipper" facts rumors, he responds by only tackling the "On To The Next One" video conspiracy (5:10 mark), explaining that Mr. Carter has no time to put the occult images in the videos.  That is probably 100% true, he may not have time.  However, that does not justify the other billion accusations on Jay-Z's music and marketing actions.  As much as I want to believe J. Cole that every conspiracy theorist is wasting there precious time, videos like these kind of contradict everything he's saying.

Give me an interview that logically explains ALL of this and I may take a month or two off from conspiracies.  Doubtful though.

David Banner's Anti-Illuminati Movement

I've touched on this briefly in my Rappers Of Repentance post, but after watching this video, I felt like Mr. Banner deserves to have his new movement updated.  When I first heard of his new album with 9th Wonder, Death Of A Pop Star, I thought the title was self explanatory.  Yet, it was not until I started hearing leaked tracks from the project to truly understand what Banner's angle was.  With his new video for the lead single off the album entitled "Slow Down", it seems as if he is trying to expose the evils of the industry a step at a time.  Even though the song itself is about women bettering themselves by not being labeled as a "ho", the video shows heavy occult subliminals.  I doubt anyone would put critical effort into "youtube analyzing" this video, so I am going to explain some of the abstract ideas that go on throughout certain scenes (to my best ability).

Seems as if a satellite is watching his movements and begins to distort when he touches his head, which may hint to some sort of tracking brain chip - 1:12 mark

Stops to visit his grandmother and picks up a pair of her shades.  Generally a grandmother for black men is a source of faith. So him taking her shades could mean that he wants to see life from a Godly view, opening his eyes to the evils of the world - 1:38 mark 

Once he puts on the shades, he looks at a family walking down the street, revealing that they are all possessed by demons.  All the family members, including the little girl are, wearing headphones which means that the music are the source of their possession - 1:46 mark

He then gets back into the car with 9th Wonder, and looks at a drug dealer collecting money from two kids.  The money that the other kids are giving the dealer reads "this is your God", an obvious point of materialism as a source of possession as well - 2:03 mark

The dealer appears to be wearing a pigs mask.  The pigs mask could have many interpretations.  But since the pigs mask was made popular  by the Saw movie series, it's safe to assume that the pigs mask is a sign of tricking, kidnapping, or "hoodwinking" someone - 2:08 mark

Once he leaves the car, he runs down the street and bumps into a man who spills his coffee.  The coffee cups logo, that is obviously mean't to look like the starbucks trademark, is the same logo of the secret society Skull & Bones - 2:34 mark



When he runs past the Salvation Army building, the statue also is wearing a pigs mask.  Again symbolizing some sort of trickery, in this case, Banner is exposing some sort of corruption within donation funds - 2:47 mark

At this point, Banner appears to be chasing a young lady he is trying to save.  The girl, however, is kidnapped by two men in black suits that look suspiciously like Mr. Anderson from The Matrix series.  From this we can assume that David Banner is looking in and out of the Matrix through the use of his spiritual shades - 2:55 mark

David Banner is then seen getting intoxicated and passing out in the club.  He awakens to see everyone in the club listening to music playing and being able to see the demonic presence within them as well - 3:37 mark

Banner then wakes up in his studio and puts back on his shades to see Matrix looking man.  The video ends with Banner fighting the Matrix (which we here at Justify Theory completely co-sign!) - 4:42 mark

To make me like this video even more, it was shot in my hometown area of Norfolk, VA.  Not sure if he was aware of this fact, but there are many masonic lodges in the Norfolk area.  I'm sure he passed a few in shooting this video.  Either way, Justify Theory will now make an effort of updating you all with information regarding this intriguing project from David and 9th Wonder.

Talib Kweli Speaks On The Illuminati

"The Illuminati is like voodoo.  Voodoo is real, but it's only real if you believe in it..." - (2:40 mark)
It seems as if Talib Kweli is making more of a ploy to get people distracted away from talking about the Illuminati if anything.  He has defended a lot of occult artists in the past through twitter comments, so these latest statements aren't surprising.

Staring At Goats: The Baphomet Worship

There are many idols used by the satanic occult as a source of their worship.  Because the occult controls much of media, we are subject to seeing these idols in television, movies, commercials, and music videos.  This is done merely to desensitize us viewers of the images projected at us in order for more people to tolerate and even embrace the occult worship.  As many as idols as there are, none of them are probably more used than the idol known as the Baphomet.

Now before I show you how much of this image is visually fed to us without our knowing,  I want to explain the origins of this idol and why it is so important to the occult today.

The History Of Baphomet & Goat Worship
Goat worship has been documented as far back as the ancient Egyptian mystery religion.  Ptah, the egyptian god of magic was often depicted as a goat or a ram.  In Egyptian mythology, Ptah was the father of Atum.  Atum was worshipped as the egyptian god Horus (used in modern occultism).  This egyptian goat worship was primarily seen in the city of Mendes, where they used the same goat image for "Ba" or Osiris.



Ptah/Osiris depicted as a goat

The name "Baphomet" can be traced back to the medieval times of the Knights Templar.  As legend has it, during the time of the Holy Wars, The Knights Templar had lost their views of Christianity and became mystic gnostics.  They began worshipping this gnostic idol which came to be known as Baphomet (the word "Baphomet" is derived from the mispronunciation of "Muhammad" or "Muhomet").

Once the church had found out about the Templar's blasphemy, the church had them tried and burned at the stake in 1307.


There is much speculation of how the Baphomet idol had been passed on after this.  Many have claimed that The Templar had influenced their families to also practice in the worship, having many of the wives become mystics.  Some believe that this was the birth of the occult dealings of Wicca.

In 1853, Catholic priest Eliphas Levi denounced his faith in order to practice in the occult and Rosicrucianism.  Levi was infatuated with the Baphomet idol, claiming to be the source of all power and knowledge.  He is responsible for the most well known image of Baphomet, which depicts the deity as a "god of enlightenment" (the first image shown above).

artistic depiction of Levi practicing witchcraft and mysticism

Satanist/occultist Aleister Crowley had often cited Levi's works, calling him the founder of the Order of The Golden Dawn.  Through Levi's writings about magic, the use of Tarot cards became an even larger phenomenon in western mysticism.

notice the Devil tarot card is represented by the Baphomet idol

In 1966, occultist Anton LaVey founded the Church of Satan, using the Baphomet symbol as it's national crest.  It is modernly known as the "Goat of Mendes" named after the Egyptian city that first practiced goat worship.

Baphomet Worship In Music
Now that I have properly given the history behind this occult idol, I will show you how much we are exposed to this image in today's media.

Lady GaGa is always in the public eye for her occult outlandish behavior and odd attire.  What people may not know is that she too has an infatuation for the Baphomet idol.  Here are several pictures of GaGa showing her goat worship:


GaGa wearing goat horns as a hat

GaGa wearing a goat head shaped wig






























Lady GaGa also incorporates the goat in many of her music videos:

In the center of the masonic checkerboard patterned wall (0:41 mark)

behind Akon on the wall (2:28 mark)

on the wall beside the man (4:13 mark)

Jonas Akerlund, video director for GaGa's song "Paparazzi", is also very much involved in the occult worship of Baphomet (obviously shown above, wearing the "Goat of Mendes" on his shirt, during the set of "Paparazzi").  Akerlund used to play for a band called Bathory for many years.  Here are a few of his band's album covers that depict the Baphomet idol:



Akerlund has also directed videos for the occult likes of Madonna, Pink, Christina Aguilera, U2 and many others.

Another singer that has become quite the "media prostitute" as of late is former Disney cherry pop star (see what I did there?), Miley Cyrus.  In her latest video, "Cant Be Tamed" she uses the same goat worship as Lady GaGa in her videos:

Behind Miley Cyrus (2:48 mark)

image from the "Cant Be Tamed" video showing two goats

What's even stranger is that Cyrus released some photos a few months ago on her Twitter of her new pet she just bought.  Care to guess what kind of animal it is?:


a goat.


Electronic rock group MGMT has also used hidden goat images in their music videos (there are many other occult images in MGMT's videos that I will analyze at a later time):

goat skull dancing to the right (1:20 mark)

filleted goat head on the floor (0:58 mark)


These are just a few of many music artists that also practice Baphomet goat worship:

Beyonce

Omarion

Kanye West

It is no surprise that MTV also would join the goat worship.  Just last Christmas, MTV released a commercial to wish everyone a happy holiday.  Here is an analysis of the commercial:


Baphomet Worship In Movies
There are many movies that incorporate the Baphomet worship, some hidden and others are very blatent.  Here are a few recent films that have used goats for hidden occult purposes.

The movie is about an elderly mystic woman that puts a curse on a young girl.  The curse causes the girl to be haunted by a demon that wants to take her back to hell in 3 days.

In the movie, the demon's name is Lamia.  However, if you pause on the trailer to see the shadow of the demon, it is clearly the head of Baphomet (1:53 mark).  Also, when the psychic has a seance with the young woman, they exorcise the demon into none other than a goat.



The movie is the sequel to the 1999 House On Haunted Hill.  This one, however, is straight-to-dvd.  Not because of poor acting or low-budget filming, but because it is the first movie that uses "navigational cinema" where the viewer is able to decide what happens to the characters.  This new advancement of technology seems to be a distraction from the movie's theme itself.  The movie is actually completely centered around the goat idol Baphomet:


This movie is about a young couple haunted by a demon in their home.  Although the demon is never truly identified in the film, there is much evidence to speculate that the entity was Baphomet.  Here is a video analyzing the occult symbolism in the movie:


These are just a few of many movies that also practice Baphomet goat worship:









I hope with all the evidence that I have given, you will be more conscious of what the occult is trying to do the next time your caught staring at goats.
