Jorge Gorgeous 0 Report post Posted May 2, 2005 I picked up this CD on the notion that it'd be something different, and it turned out to be fucking superb. This guys a Hasidic Jew who does roots reggae music. I really can't recomend it enough, not just as a Jew, but as a music lover. If someone wants to give him a listen I can send you a track or two via the AIM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted May 2, 2005 I just had an interesting question pop into my head based on this thread. Contemporary Christian music exists. Is there Contemporary Jewish music? I mean as a genre. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean as a genre. Nope. Theres TONS of Jewish musical artists, head over to www.jewhoo.com and look in the music section if you want a list, theres some surprising ones. Klezmer would maybe be the closest? I wouldn't call it contemporary, and it definitely isn't pop - but its very Jewish and its still being made. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
