Yeh I like the guy. He has a nice fresh style and its nice to see someone reppin what they believe in (although I'm not spiritual whatsoever). King Without A Crown is a dope track.

I've seen him in concert twice now, and shook his hand. I like his beats and lyrics, and I like the concept of what he's doing. I think it matches well with christians taking over rock music. Christians get rock, Jews get reggae, what do Muslims get?

Muslims get hip-hop - see the whole 5% nation stuff... A hell of a lot of early hip-hop pioneers were Islamic (A Tribe Called Quest etc.)

And as for dwightschrute, I suggest you take a look at the 'rap sucks' thread at the top of the forum... It will save me having to beat you down here.

Yeah baby, Guiscard knows his stuff.

I hate reggae as a rule, but Matisyahu remains on constant circulation on my playlists.

Jerusalem is good if you know what hes talking bout. WP is a good all-around song that really dosent have anything to do with judaism.
