"the Hasidic reggae superstar"

Matisyahu isn’t your average reggae musician.
Dubbed “the Hasidic reggae superstar,” he is just that:
a young, white Hasidic Jew from the Bronx who
performs smooth reggae that sounds like it is
straight off the beaches of Kingston, Jamaica.
Rather than making a joke out of the music,
he takes himself and what he does very seriously,
using the microphone as a forum to express many
of his beliefs about faith and morals.
