When social media giant Facebook made the unjust and controversial decision to shut down and ban the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan from its platforms, few expressed anger and outrage quite like members of the hip hop community.

Snoop Dogg, TI, Busta Rhymes and many more artists joined the chorus of those who came to the defense of a man who has sacrificed his life for over six decades in the mission of his father, the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad, in the resurrection and upliftment of Black and oppressed people all over the world.

The hip hop community, the Nation of Islam and Minister Farrakhan are interwoven through history in a relationship that goes back decades. A supporter and friend of Min. Farrakhan with a wide-reaching print and digital platform, Londell McMillian, publisher of The Source, provided an opportunity for The Final Call to share content with its readers regarding the Muslim leader.

The Source is one of the premier hip hop magazines. “Farrakhan and Hip-Hop: An Unbreakable Bond,” written by Final Call managing editor Starla Muhammad was featured in the Special Edition: First Annual Future Issue of The Source. The issue ran with two separate covers and artists—one featuring Lil Baby and another featuring A Boogie ‘Wit Da Hoodie.
