Duh!!!! He was just in phoenix not so long ago and I got sick so couldn't see him perform. Did you know that He was not always religious!!!!!! An amazing transformation from from a hippie of sorts to religious. Greatly respect him because it seems that he never gave up his old hippie values, but incorporated them into his new beliefs!!!!

OAR is big enough for madison square garden!! WOAH! I've seen OAR many a time in VERY VERY small venues (few hundred people) - my roomates love OAR, i don't, but i went with...

now on to this guy...i just watched the live video from his site. wow...it's good! And i dont generally like this kind of music. Kind of a blend of reggae (sp?), hip hop, rap...and from his lyrics, well i'd call him an urban poet =)

i'll have to check his music out

I really need to listen to more of this guy! I found out about him a while back and I thought it was really cool, but I get so much new music every day it's really hard to put the time into artists that I really like that they really deserve

I put Matisyahu into Pandora and it is definitely putting up other music that I like.

I have Matisyahu's new album, Youth now. I find the songs a bit... over-produced. Then again I am used to the energy of Live at Stubb's. I think I may get used to the new album soon.

I agree. Very over produced. I like his live show best.

I am slowly becoming accustomed to his new album. Yes it is over-produced but the lyrics are really quite good.

Yea, the lyrics are great. I'd like to get another live CD with the new material.
