Never heard of him...
You shall make yourself the Festival of Sukkoth for seven days, when you gather in [the produce] from your threshing floor and your vat.And you shall rejoice in your Festival-you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your maidservant, and the Levite, and the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow, who are within your cities

Interesting... But I can't say I like that songs rap... But I do like some rap-fusion music...

Here is a fusion of Rock and Rap, featuring the Jewish convert Shyne. The song continues on the message which appeared at the end of the previous video, a parable of the great Rabbi Nachman of Breslev, that Jews should FEAR nothing but Hashem.. I have posted it numerous times in the last year, and it still is a favorite of mine which I listen to almost daily in my car on the drive to work.



It is derived from the song we (at Chabad) sing almost every Shabbat , Kol HaOlam Kulo...

"Life is a narrow bridge, and the main thing is not to fear at all"

Here is an interesting fusion of Rap music and traditional Jewish niggunim (melodies)... Prodezra Beats is another artist I listen to almost daily...



And the melody of 'Eitz HaChaim' (Tree of Life) which we sing when we return the Torah to the ark...



Compare the melody to the traditional tune:

Yiddish? No.

.   ד  עֹזְבֵי תוֹרָה, יְהַלְלוּ רָשָׁע;    וְשֹׁמְרֵי תוֹרָה, יִתְגָּרוּ בָם
4 They that forsake the law praise the wicked; but such as keep the law contend with them.

ה  אַנְשֵׁי-רָע, לֹא-יָבִינוּ מִשְׁפָּט;    וּמְבַקְשֵׁי יְהוָה, יָבִינוּ כֹל.   
5 Evil men understand not justice; but they that seek the LORD understand all things.

I think this guy is pretty good. I hope he does some more Jewish themed music in the future although he brings Jewish ideas into a lot of the videos I watched on his YouTube page.

I would like to share Shtar, an Israeli English hip-hop band...

From about 16 minutes him with his personal story.
