Matisyahu!

[Josh]

The hassidic jewish reggae rapper. Check him out. Not bad.

 

[ThePresence]

I was at a show of his. He's better than not bad, he's damn good.
He just got signed to Or Records, same label as Los Lonely Boys.

Yes, I did, because I was just talking to a buddy about him so I did a random search and this thread showed up.

 

[Excelsior]

I am gonna further revive this thread. I just checked out a video of his.

Strange at first..but wow he is good. Really interesting.

 

[BigJ]

His album is one of the better albums I've listened to in the past few years.

If anyone has some suggestions for reggae thats similar sounding to his, I'd be much obliged.

Hey, I thought music that went into politics bothered you...isn't this guy's stuff religous?

 

[Trente]

Very nice!

 

[asm0deus]

his beatbox is the sickest, seriously, and his vocal style is genius. you can get their live at stubbs disc on napster. they are one of my favorite bands right now, just trying to sing along is quite a challenge

I thought that The Prescence was jewish..or maybe that is just an incorrect assumption.
