Anybody else hear of this guy?!

He's a Hasidic Jew reggae singer and he's amazing, I highly recommend checking him out if you're into reggae.

It's pretty wild to see a Hasidic Jew kickin' it like this

I listened to some of the audio files and that guy is CRAZY. You weren't lyin' man.

Re: Matisyahu
 

I've heard nothing but cool things ... I got to check him out.

Re: Matisyahu
 

Pick up his live CD if you can, it's off the hook, I've been listening to it non-stop today

Re: Matisyahu
 

"King Without A Crown" is in rotation on Faction (Sirius Channel 28), and he collaborated with P.O.D on 2 songs, including [url=http://myspace.com/payableondeath]Roots In Stereo[/url].

Definitely a must have...

Actually - went to Best Buy with the wife tonight, and bought it. Listening to it right now, and it's really good. Can't wait for his new album to come out (March 7)

Re: Matisyahu
 

Yeah man "Live At Stubbs" is an awesome cd. Matisyahu is straight nasty on the mic haha.

Re: Matisyahu
 

There's going to be an article about him in the WP on Sunday in the Arts section. Just FYI.

Re: Matisyahu
 

Anyone get his new album yet?

It's alot better than I thought it would be, I'm still hooked on 'Live at Stubb's' but 'Youth' is pretty damn good too!

My buddy just picked it up last night. Youth is a great album! We were listening to it pretty much all night last night (while we were getting smashed).

I actually prefer the studio version of "King Without a Crown" to the Live one.

my wife ordered it the other day, but it was on backorder...so i'll eventually have it.

I'm surprised how good the studio version is... I still prefer the live one myself, guess I just like the energy of it.

Re: Matisyahu
 

Is anyone going this Monday to see him at Ram's Head Live in Baltimore?

Re: Matisyahu
 

Hey, if you guys like Matisyahu, I'd also check out Groundation, they are very good also.
