The Nation of Gods and Earths, commonly known as the Five Percent Nation or the Five Percenters, is an African American social and religious movement. It was founded in Harlem in the late 1960s by Clarence 13X, who came to be known as Allah. The Five Percent Nation angered religious and political leaders, who viewed the group as a radical offshoot of the Nation of Islam, already seen by traditional Islam as heretical. This came with the Nation of Gods and Earths having stated their predicted coming, and their goal of seeking freedom, justice, and equality from economic, political, social, and religious injustices in the United States and the world over.

A ridiculous, man-made, religious construct or system that "holds no water".
A lot of good rappers buy into it though. It's like a bastard, bastard, form of Islam.
