Matisyahu, the Lebovitch-Reggae singing sensation, was just on Israel's swinging "Galatz" radio station. According to my resident expert, ds#1, this was the very first time, since Galatz had been boycotting, or ignoring him, put off by the Chabad persona, which doesn't jive with their idea of a top singing sensation.
But when the legendary Sting, performed with him in Tel Aviv, they could no longer pretend that Matisyahu didn't exist.
Just proves that you don't have to live like a goy to be a star! Kol hakavod l'Matisyahu!!
well i figured he'd made it when i was watching the local music video show one sunday morning when they showed a matisyahu clip. and then was on the top forty in australia.
ReplyDelete4 of my kids were at the Sting concert here to see Matisyahu. Truth is that they got the tickets for free from someone Sting works with. Sat in the VIP section.
ReplyDeleteHow are you? Did you see what I wrote about the screen? I can see your blog better now.
Is it really mean to suggest that working with Sting would be grounds for a boycott?
ReplyDeleteWhy? Sting's not that crackpot who wrote on the "wall."
