Artist Biography
Available in: gb icon
Lord Jamar is an American M.C and actor. He is a member of the hip-hop group Brand Nubian, which formed in 1989. As an actor, he is best known for his role of Supreme Allah on the TV series Oz. He has appeared on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Third Watch, and The Sopranos. He has also done production work for artists such as Dead Prez, Buckshot, Shaka Amazulu The 7th and Tom Browne. He released his debut solo album The 5% Album (an album dedicated to the Nation of Gods and Earths) on June 27, 2006. He also appeared in a much talked about episode of The (White) Rapper Show in which he criticized contestant John Brown for naming his company Ghetto Revival. Like his onscreen character on Oz, Jamar is a member of the Nation of Gods and Earths.
Lord Jamar garnered controversy after releasing a track on February 4, 2013 titled "Lift Up Your Skirt," which was characterized by some in the media as homophobic. He has disputed the characterization, tweeting "I went to a GAY WEDDING of a good friend not long ago so I doubt I'm homophobic" in response to allegations of homophobia in other tweets.
On September 23, 2013, Lord Jamar garnered even more controversy when he said "White rappers are guests in hip hop" and other offensive remarks about white rappers and homosexuality in an interview with DJ Vlad.
