Louis Farrakhan reinstated the original Nation of Islam, and has reasserted his belief in the literal truth of the story of Yakub. In a 1996 interview, Henry Louis Gates, Chairman of Harvard University's Afro-American Studies Department, asked him whether the story was a metaphor or literal. Farrakhan claimed that aspects of the story had been proven accurate by modern genetic science and insisted that "Personally, I believe that Yakub is not a mythical figure he is a very real scientist. Not a big-head silly thing, as they would like to say."[20] Farrakhan's periodical The Final Call continues to publish articles arguing that modern science supports the accuracy of Elijah Muhammad's account of Yakub.[21]

Chuck D of Public Enemy also refers to the story in his song "Party for Your Right to Fight", referring to the Yakub story by attributing the deaths of African American radicals to the “grafted devils” conspiring against the “Black Asiatic Man.”.[24]

Method Man of the Wu-Tang Clan promotes the story of Yakub in the Ol' Dirty Bastard's song "Raw Hide," saying: "A mystery god that's the work of Yacub / The Holy Ghost got you scared to death kid boo!". In the Wu-Tang Clan's hit song "Gravel Pit", at the end of it, can be heard a vocal sample from a 1977 movie Short Eyes which says about Yakub: "Yakub, maker and creator of the devil. Swine merchant... your time is near at hand. **** with me and your time will be now. Your presence here effects the mind of my people like a fever. You, Yakub, are the bearer of nine thousand nine hundred and ninety nine diseases, evil, corrupt, porkchop-eatin' brain!".

Nas raps "You devils will run back into the caves you came from" in his song "Message To The Feds, Sincerely, We're The People" from his album Street's Disciple.

On a freestyle to Drake's song "We Made It", Jay Electronica says "All these devils, I got to strike some" and Jay Z says "I'm ready to chase the Yakub back into caves".

NOI is just like BLM, but much, much, much worse

and they cannot be taken down because it will be "racist" or "islamophobic"

So, Is Yakub considered and 'evil genius villain who destroys the black race' to Islam, or is he more the 'loveable but absentminded scientist who wackily destroys the black race'?
