Matisyahu: Jekyl and Hyde, Batman?

This is probably one of the better articles I've read on the biggest Jewish singing sensationMatisyahu

The article reminds me of Batman:

By day, the man born Matthew Miller is a serious religious student, a pious Hasidic Jew in black suit, wide-brimmed hat and long bushy beard who studies at a yeshiva in New York's religious Crown Heights neighbourhood.

But by night, he is Matisyahu, an up-and-coming rap/reggae artist who happens to have replaced his dreadlocks with a black kippah, and whose prayer shawl tassels, peeking out from the bottom of his white shirt, shake in time to the music.


After reading this article, I truly get a better sense of what he's all about ( not that I didn't really know before). You got give credit where credit is due....this guys keeps getting bigger and bigger: I hope his message does also.
