Not a big fan of Reggae, but still one of my favorite albums

"I don't really care as to whether or not Matisyahu is a legit Reggae musician or a "parody act". I think the beats and lyrics are great, and best of all, very inspiring. Yes, the music is religious, but not at all in an annoying way. The music isn't telling you that you're going to hell if you don't do such and such. It's also not making a mockery of religious texts by making them fit into a genre of music where they don't belong. I generally don't rely on music for inspiration, but this music does it for me anyway.



I'm not too sure how much this music would appeal to people are not really spiritual or perhaps not fans of the Jewish religion. No, the music isn't judgmental, but the message is very Jewish (though it most certainly applies to all mankind)."
