I want to personally thank The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan and his team for this immeasurable gift of music. Listening to “Let’s Change The World” always sets the tone for my day. I’ve had it since its release in May. The quality of this kind of production is masterful and award worthy.⠀
⠀
It’s not just an album, it’s Minister Farrakhan’s life journey through music. This collection of 45 tracks, covering 8 genres, walks listeners through the heart, mind, soul, love, joy, pain, mission and essence of a man who has sacrificed his life for the resurrection of his people and humanity. Every time I play it, I feel like I’m getting an exclusive one-on-one interview with Minister Farrakhan.
My Top 10 favorite tracks are:⠀
⠀
1. The Bach Double (First, Second, Third Movements)⠀
2. I’ll Fight You ⠀
3. He Looked Beyond My Faults (feat. Deniece Williams)⠀
4. Let’s Change The World (feat. Snoop Dogg)⠀
5. Let Us Unite (feat. Damien Marley)⠀
6. Songs My Mother Taught Me⠀
7. I’ll Fight Ya (feat. Snoop Dogg, Rick Ross & Common)⠀
8. Largo for Rollice and Charles⠀
9. Summertime (feat. Chaka Khan)⠀
10. This Is The One⠀
⠀
I can’t count how many times I’ve watched the enclosed behind-the-scenes DVD and read the near 100-page book that details the motivation behind the album, his biography and the message behind every song.⠀
FUN FACT: The album was originally titled “A Time for Meditation and Reflection”. Minister Farrakhan talks about this in the book “Closing The Gap” (pages 419-421) compiled by Brother Jabril Muhammad. He also talks about how he was touched by the song “Remember Me” that’s on the soundtrack of the movie “Troy”. He heard it during the closing credits of the movie. The profound way he broke down the meaning caused me to download the song. DEEP INSIGHT into the importance of his album. All of us as students should go back and study this!
