Once you’re over the rather unique fact that Matisyahu is a hipster Hasidic Jewish reggae-rapper, you’re left with his music and his performance, both of which just happen to draw raves from fans and reviewers alike. The Pennsylvania native born Matthew Miller mixes dub, reggae, hip-hop, conscious rap, a little jam band and a touch of traditional Jewish tunes into a powerful musical message, as evidenced on his latest LP, “Light.” Renowned for his live shows, Matishyahu’s status as a music fan first, and underground superstar second, comes through as he delivers what is, for some, an almost religious experience on stage.
