Is that Native American that means something like, You'll smell it in a minute?

 

[caudio51]

Nope, http://www.matismusic.com/

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!!!!

Yeah I wanted to see him but I couldn't get that night off. My supervisor at the time went and saw him though.

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

 

[MithShrike]

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

 

[joshua]

He like channels Bob Marleys spirit sometimes, I swear... except he will sing in hebrew doing it.

Yeah it is ridiculous how talented he is.

 

[caudio51]

Yea, he really is a great artist. I'm very excited to see him live.

 

[jasontp]

Man pandora makes me happy. . . I put him on mine and just got all sorts of cool reggae type stuff :grin:

 

[caudio51]

Going to see him on Tuesday

I have the new ablum if anyone wants too

 

[MithShrike]

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.

 

[caudio51]

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