Strange sensation

K so now there is hype re the Hasidic Jew that is singing reggae, I will say good for him doing his thing. BUT, I think peeps should hold off on anointing him the next reggae superstar. Here are a few things: a lot of the hype is based on the fact that he is a Hasidic Jew (when was the last time you saw a Hasidic Jew singing anything much less reggae); he is a white guy doing Reggae; don’t forget DJ Snow; there is a serious hype machine behind him.; half the peeps listening to Matisyahu (that’s the Artist’s name by the way) can’t understand a damn thing, but there peeps have told them that it is cool.
