Matisyahu blows his shofar while sharing the stories of the wandering Jews. A brilliant lyricist, a prophet AND instrumentally inclined? Now there's the Messiah if I ever could think of one. And this Messiah has his own MySpace profile.

Oral B sounds like the kind of rap moniker Tom Wolfe might come up with. Good god, how could I have not seen it before? I bet Wolfe has been garnishing his salary by penning rhymes for Jay-Z and 50 Cent for years.

@stew:

Better not give Josh a Pulitzer; he might wear it on his sleeve like R.O. Butler.

Somebody got a book deal out of a rejected spec script for 30 Rock.

A rapper named, "Oral B?" Puh-leeze. Maybe at Century Village in Delray Beach.
Anyway, check out this book's amazon page for the real laughs. Three RAVE REVIEWS are already posted for this nonsense, all piped in by pals-of-the-author, no doubt. None of the three reviewers have reviewed anything else, of course. I predict it sells fewer than 1,000 copies.

Fuck Matisyahu. That dude's a gimmick.

Everybody knows that the greatest Jewish Rappers were 3rd Bass, hands down.

Oh, and maybe that dude Sam Sever from Downtown Science. I think that he was a 'brew too (but even if he wasn't he's a dope rapper for being so lightskinneded).

Um, Mordy Mandell? [www.youtube.com]

I randomly walked into a bar on a Sunday afternoon and encountered Spoken Word Hour, featuring the talents of this lawyer-cum-rapper. I stayed for the whole thing.

Thanks for the Foo Foo link. I never would have known what you were talking about. What's the story behind "I'm Bringing Home A Baby Bumble Bee?" by the way?
