As most of you know by know, rumors have been circulating the Internet and about our boy Jay-Z possibly being a Devil worshiper and having ties to a secret cult called the “Illuminati.” Jay-Z has tried to clear rumors before regarding the situation in the past, but has always been really vague in his responses leaving people to believe that they rumors could possibly be true. Well Hov spoke with Angie Martinez of Hot 97 today to once again further dispel talk of his personal beliefs. This time he was a bit more specific…

“I don’t know where it started. I don’t know where it came from. I really think it’s really silly. For the record, I of course believe in God, but I believe in one God. If people must know my religious beliefs, I believe in one God. I don’t believe in religion. I don’t believe in Christians or Muslims. I think all that separates people. I think it’s one God. I think it’s all the same God, and I don’t believe in Hell. But as far as God, of course I believe in God. Am I a part of some sec or cult? That sounds stupid to me. It’s like ignorant to even say, and umm… I guess that’ll be the last time I address that. It’s ignorant to me”

I can’t even get in a golf club in Palm Springs. I’m from Marcy Projects. Just think about that? People that control the world?

Do you believe that those sort of organizations exist?
I think there are cliques of friends that control things. I don’t if there is a devil worshiping sect. That’s a little Tom hanks. I believe there are cliques of people that control the world…but that’s just natural process. I’m sure Obama has his people and everything is good but as far as how far people are taking it…

So you don’t intentionally do this to put people in a frenzy?
I’m an entertainer at the end of the day. Maybe I’ll push your buttons but you know…

Honestly we’ve never believed that those devil worshiping rumors were true. Now, do you think that we can all finally put this to bed? Or not?
