Did anyone see Matisyahu, the orthodox Jewish reggae rapper? He was on Jimmy Kimmel's show some weeks ago and rocked the house!! The guy can really rap. He has the Jamaican toaster/chat style down pat. Check him out:

Mr B.
I've been reading about this guy. Ta for the link. Will check it out.
Maybe I'll track him down on my next NYC adventure.
come to boston instead. he's playing here in a week or so. i think he's opening up for some big rap star. i'll post more about it later.
Figured out where I'd first read about him ... the magazine I was reading when I flew to New York ...
