Rapper Ja Rule had dialog with the Minister Louis Farrakhan on The Nation of Islam's farm on Thursday.
The contents of their conversation will simultaneously be broadcast on 85 urban Clear Channel stations across the country.
Sources told AllHipHop.com that the purpose of the meeting between Ja-Rule and Farrakhan is to mediate tension between the two men and encourage peace between their respective camps.
Big Tigga was originally requested to do the interview, but sources said that Farrakhan was chosen at the request of Irv Gotti.
Farrakhan spoke with 50 Cent on Thursday as well and will meet with him one on one in the coming weeks. Farrakhan will also meet with Irv Gotti and Chris Lighty, who manages 50 Cent.
"The reeducation of the public, which is the duty of all in leadership, will cause us to make demands on our artists, their managers, promoters and the owners of the recording, movie and television industries so that the public will be fed a better diet spiritually and mentally, as well as musically and artistically," Farrakhan said of the rap industry in January.
This is not the first time that Farrakhan, leader of the Nation Of Islam, has met with feuding rappers. Shortly after the murders of Tupac Shakur and The Notorious B.I.G., the Minister met with various artists, attempting to broker peace.
