    I like him a lot. I heard him for the first time about a month ago and it blew me away. His music is great for the fact that his spirituality really comes through. I wanted to see him but tickets are sold out. Anyone who's interested, there's a big article on him in the new rolling stone.

    The backlash on him seems to have begun, which is too bad, because he's got great songs and his live shows are phenomenal.

    I have the Live at Stubbs album. I think it's great. Very good stuff.

    Wow, you really went out on the ledge with that comparison.

    Snow's lyrics were very wannabe gangster

    Matisyahu's are spiritual, intelligent and easy to understand, as long as you are open-minded enough to actually listen

    Eh, I've seen Matisyahu. He's ok. His band happens to be pretty good and talented, but him personally, nothing special. And I also think that he seems pretty fake, and the whole religious thing he does seems kind of like a gimmick to me. But whatever. If people appreciate his music, then good for him, and good for them.

    I agree and am sort of turned off by the whole religious thing. He only converted something like 3 years ago...sort of like Bush being a Christian!!

    With that being said I like his music and wouldnt mind checking him out in concert.

    Only 3 years... what does that have to do with anything?

    Total ignorance. Does someone have to be spiritual from day one of their life? Get real.
