Anyone here into Matisyahu? I was recently introduced to this guy when I heard a CD my sister burned for my parents; it had the song "Chop Em Down" on it, which was sufficiently catchy to get me to further investigate. After hearing the rest of the live CD, I must say I'm a fan. This guy's really talented. |

I love that song "Warrior." Been stuck in my head all damn day long. Also, if you have a sub in your car, this is good cruising music. |

Doug what made you think I'm THAT big a fan of that album? I do like music that isn't the same old processed and canned crap and that one fits but it definitely isn't the end all in my book. Really good but not great. |

Also if anyone is interested in his music post here. I have a few of his cds and will upload them and post the link if you want. Oh, and a bit off topic, the new K-Os cd is one of the best I've heard in the last 5-10 years. |

Well, obviously I am.  I just have the Live at Stubb's CD. Listening to the whole CD a couple times through, I'm realizing that he's a much better musician that I initially thought. The beatboxing is a entertaining plus; you don't see a lot of that today.

The beatboxing and the song "king without a crown" is the only thing good i heard on his CDs... Outside of that hes a novely act. A hasidic Jewish reggae rapper is what WWE is to real fighting. |

Only if you're looking at it from the perspective of pidgeonholing all music into specific genres; that, I have little interest in. The bottom line, in my opinion, is that the music is entertaining, and he's a very talented musician. Brad Nowell heard a lot of the same criticism (in other words, if you don't enjoy the music, that's valid, but I don't believe the 'novelty act' criticism to hold much water). |
