Happy Hanukkah | Matisyahu, Pitchfork & The Voice
VILLAGE VOICE | 12/21/05
"...But the leading new Jewish contender for pop's next big bang is Matisyahu, a figure attracting almost as many rude bwoys as yeshiva boychiks. His sold-out September 8 Webster Hall concert was full of surreal and evocative equations...."
Read "Hanukkah Outrocks Christmas" at the Village Voice
AND...
* I shouldn't of procrastinated this post so long, because now the Voice's "Hanukkah Musical Time Line '05" is just about out of date.
* Ryan Schreiber at Pitchfork gains ironic cool points for dissing Matisyahu by printing something the singer of the Bravery said in that article in the Guardian.
* Yo La Tengo are blogging their Hanukkah shows.
* Matisyahu has a new video and a whole bunch of 2006 tour dates that were just announced.
* Chanukah, or Hanukkah? at NPR

There are a lot of other dancehall artists out there that have been doing it a lot longer and a lot better than this guy, how come you never review any of them on your site? Why only this guy?
