Minister Louis Farrakhan’s “For The Love Of Music” Documentary

A documentary featuring The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan and his 1993 performance of the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto on his 60th Birthday.

What are the odds that after 40 years of no formal training or public performance that Minister Louis Farrakhan could pick up his violin and perform the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto? Who would think that Minister Farrakhan, without missing a beat in his regular routine, would be able to perform such a magnificent work as the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto never having performed before with an orchestra.

My album of the year: Minister Louis Farrakhan’s “Let’s Change The World”

written by BJ Blog Staff

by Brother Jesse

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.

Brother Jesse Muhammad holding up his personal copy of The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan’s “Let’s Change The World” limited edition box set.

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!
⠀
I invite everyone to support The Minister’s Music. Go to LCTWmusic.com and order this gift of music.⠀

All of our artistic and cultural advancement came on the heels of our pain and suffering. So pain in our community became the Mother of Creativity. So, there are no people on this earth like the Black, talented human being. No one sings like us. No one writes poetry like us. No one writes plays like us. No one dances like us. No one feels like us, because we are the people who reflect the soul of God.⠀ ⠀ LCTWmusic.com⠀ ⠀ #LetsChangeTheWorld #Farrakhan #Violin

Charles Veal introduced me to the Bach Double Concerto, which is for two solo violins. And Charles as my teacher was going to play it with me…I was so looking forward to performing it with Charles, but he passed away. When we had his memorial, I was reintroduced to Ayke Agus. I told Ayke about the Bach Double, and she said, "Of course I'll do it with you." The Bach Double is a great piece, very popular in the classical genre; and it's been played by some of the great violinists. Ayke and I do the three movements of the Bach Double. ⠀ ⠀ Song: "Bach Double: 1st Movement" /Produced by: Louis Farrakhan/ Conducted by: Ayke Agus/ Violin: Louis Farrakhan Violin: Ayke Agus / Orchestra Contracted by: Sylvia de la Cerna / Recorded at Mosque Maryam, Chicago, IL. • LCTWMusic.com. • #Farrakhan #LetsChangeTheWorld #ClassicalMusic #Violinist

Before I became a minister, I was a musician. I grew up playing the violin, singing ballads, calypso and dancing and was exceedingly popular in the city of Boston where I grew up. • LCTWMusic.com #LetsChangeTheWorld #Farrakhan #Violin

If a man speaks out of the heart of God and plays out of the heart of God and plays out of a soul like God, then he is the most effective in transforming life. Not just entertaining but transforming life from the heart that God had given David.⠀ ⠀ We can change the world. We must change the world.
