Recently I came across a Jewish reggae/hip hop artist whose songs and lyrics inspired me. No one has done that to me in a while... I've been mainly listening to typical mainstream songs by Maroon 5 - and following them in Twitter. And I guess I realized they're not as special as this one. The man is Matisyahu.
For those who follow him - yes, I know, where have I BEEN!?!?! Why have I not heard about his songs in years?!?! As Matis said in a TMZ interview, he's not just some artist who turns out to be Jewish. He sings and writes his songs about his culture and religion. King Without a Crown is just one of the best songs ever. One Day is just as inspiring.
I don't have to be Jewish to be inspired by his songs. We all have that concept and longing for God. Don't we? By the way, I follow him in Twitter too. His beard is just awesome, not to mention his beat boxin'!
