He's certainly part of the gang. I doubt he is anywhere near the top of the hierarchy. Those are probably people that are not in the public eye. I am not necessarily an advocate of the whole illuminati bloodlines theory as originally proposed by Fritz Springmeier (I did read some of his books though), but it is certainly interesting that Jay-Z and Beyonce started a whole fashion line and music talent agency called Rocafella. Everything in that line is about Illuminati symbolism and Jay-Z in particular likes to Rap about how "they" (including his wife Beyonce and Protege Rihanna) are part of the Rocafella family.
The couple are a member of OTO or Ordo Templo Oriensis, the magickal secret society originally founded by Aleister Crowley, who is usually credited with reviving ancient magickal practices for modern times, though others certainly played an important role as well. Jay-Z is also often seen sporting slogans from Anton LaVey's Satanic Bible, so he's probably involved in some capacity with the Church of Satan as well. He is also a big fan of Baphomet, the original idol of the Knights Templar and in my own rather unpleasant experience with him, possibly the same dude as Azazel, leader of the fallen angels or watchers.
Do not for one second assume that this is all done as some sort of fashion statement or because it is cool and trendy. The forces of darkness can make anything happen if you pay the right kind of tribute and are loyal to them. They reward their followers generously. It is not for nothing that so many of the most famous, rich and powerful people are amongst their ranks. They got there for a reason and they know that their continued success, wealth and fame is dependent on their loyalty to these forces and giving them what they want. Magic is actually just a tool to contact and communicate with these forces, the rest is largely done by them.
