i tried - i tried, i wanted to like this. as far as the genre goes, these guys are probably one of the better acts, but lets face it, the genre is rather limited and it doesnt take much to get noticed. the rhythms are a bit mechanical and stale, and the vocal chops of these two gentleman consdierably lack in the way of cantorial soul . if you like rap music and want something anti-gangster/pro-rebbe, this might be for you. otherwise, there are multiple other jewish music acts who are far more interesting/danceable/entertaining.
Great Album! - I m in my 40 s-- so though I love Matisyahu, Eytan G and other new Jewish music, I recognize that my tastes are not the same as teenagers. However, the 6th and 7th graders I taught last year in Hebrew School really loved Ta Shma (Matisyahu also) as my own kids do-- so give it a listen! .
Excellent CD very Inspiring - Already bought 3 copies of this great cd, all my friends love it right away, so i had to stock up to avoid remaining without this vital CD!
ITS AMAZING - This music is inspirational and will make you want to dance and sing. Some tracks have a strong beat and will make you rap.If you even like Matisyahu a little, you will be fond of Ta Shma.If your Jewish it maeks it even 2X as awsome.Support Jewish music.Buy it, you won t be disappointed. Def. 5/5
A must have CD - Innovative, interesting lyrics, great backing, talented artists.Watch out for more from these producers who discovered and produced Matisyahu s first and greatest hit CD.
