Many celebrities actually arrived early to get a good seat and hear the message Farrakhan, 83, prepared for the evening.

The conversation ranged from Barack Obama and why he had to denounce Farrakhan, to Donald Trump’s presidency campaign, to reminiscing about the good ol’ days when the Source Magazine ruled the streets of the hip hop community. Farrakhan was looking for Hip Hop Weekly publisher Dave Mayes in the audience, but Dave was in the back. Farrakhan also spoke highly about Killer Mike and his supportive efforts to have the Black community move their money into Black banks.
