My friend recommended him to me just the other day. I haven't had the chance to listen to him yet, but he sounds cool.

I managed to purchase 'Youth' yesterday. I'm really surprised how good his reggae sound is considering he's from somewhere nowhere near the Caribbean. The album is good, and I especially like the first track, 'Fire Of Heaven'. I'm also pleased that the lyrics promote learning and tolerance, rather than simple religious doctrine.

I kinda think he's not that talented, but that like so many artists before him, his success comes from his gimmick or niche. (And I'm not retarded, I'm not calling his being Hasidic a gimmick....you know what I mean, he's the only one doing it)
