Ab-Soul, who is currently completing his upcoming album, recently spoke about his views on Illuminati and Hip Hop. During a recent interview with Miami New Times, Ab-Soul was asked who first introduced him to views of "an elitist world-economic structure or groups such as Illuminati."

"Shit, man, probably Hip Hop," Ab-Soul says in the interview. "Probably heard about the Illuminati through Hip Hop, to be honest with you. I've learned most of the things I know through Hip Hop music. You know what I'm saying? You listen to Jay Z and Nas and you'll learn a whole lot."

Ab-Soul continues to discuss his views on Illuminati in a follow-up answer. "The root word of Illuminati is illuminate," he says. "It means to be enlightened."
