So to all of you who said that Hassidic Jews can’t rap over melodic reggae sounds, I say: weird, why would you say that? But also, check out
Matisyahu. If you haven’t heard of him, perhaps you will. His current single, “
King Without A Crown” is number 23 on the US Modern Rock charts, and has a chance at breaking into the top 20. This “Hassidic Reggae Superstar”, as he is known on the streets, might even be coming to a town near you. He is coming to DC on Christmas Day, (Jews don’t have much to do on Christmas day except accounting, eating Chinese food, and the occasional putting on a concert for other bored Jews). Unfortunately for me, I won’t be in DC on Christmas. However, I will be near Philly on Christmas Eve, and joy to the world, he will be performing then and there. Hooray! Unfortunately for me, 99.9% of my friends are not Jewish and will be busy then doing Christian-esque stuff. For the remaining few who won’t be partaking in the Christmas Eve fun, they either hate reggae, have dreidel spinning plans, or are busy planning on how they can take over the world.
But not Matisyahu. He’s too busy singing about the big man upstairs. That big guy in the sky. No, not the Notorious B.I.G. The Notorious G.O.D. Or is it Tupac? Crap, now I can’t remember…

he came and performed at our building for some mtvu event. it was jarringly good. like a jar of gefilte fish. except those aren't really that good. but they are in a jar.
