-Matisyahu-

Who else loves em? Something about them that has like extra flowingness to it and the lyrics are pretty sweet

"...We could forget about Galus for a while, our troubles for a while
Sometimes I look at you and just smile, sit in the park and just laugh all day
Sometimes I just lose it with the things that you say, waiting by the subway
But we missed the train, well take the next one if you can pull me away
Keep me cool down to earth, and no anxiety
Stay modest with the humble heart always..."

.... i donno, when you listen to it .. it just flows

Me no want no sinsemilla.
That would only bring me down
Burn away my brain no way my brain is to compound
Elevated my soul you're a flying my sound
Like the sun of a sun ray burning up through a cloud
Torah food for my brain let it rain till I drown
Thunder!
Let the blessings come down

no sir, that kind of talk is not welcome in my reggae...

I love matisyahu. Just because he supports natural happiness verses drug induced happiness doesn't mean his music is bunk because I smoke weed.

YouTube - Matisyahu - King Without A Crown

How can you NOT like this song?

or this one,

I guess taste is subjective but I find matisyahu delicious in moderation.

Geeno · 08-01-2009, 01:08 PM

Not everyones all about smoking some weed

**Mafoo** · 08-01-2009, 01:22 PM

matis is pretty chill to listen to when baked. its relaxing but still on the uplifting side.

notepad · 08-01-2009, 01:36 PM

matisyahu is dope

and he cant be totally against pot considering he toured with 311

Matis is some good shit. His early stuff really reflected a guy who understood the 'light of god' per se, seemed really genuine. I felt he had tremendous potential but he's gotten increasingly poppy though and I haven't liked anything he's done past Youth. But I love his early stuff, had a real ethnic and cultural sound to it.

YouTube - Matisyahu - Got no Water

And the original King Without A Crown:

Stripin' away the layers and reveal your soul
Ya gotta to give yourself up and then you become whole
You're a slave to yourself and you don't even know
(You) Want to live the fast life but your brain moves slow
If you're trying to stay high, you're bound to stay low
You want God but you (can't/couldn't} deflate your ego
You're already there, then there's nowhere to go
You're cup's already full then it's bound to overflow

He used to smoke a lot from what I understand. Check this song he collaborated on (his part is at 2:45):

YouTube - C-Rayz Walz (Feat. Kosher Dillz & Matisyahu) - Childhood

Quote:

used to be me in my room with no dj,
just a PA and a pair of JBL speakers,
in the attic of my parents house,
not a mouse was heard,
one pm in the afternoon ,
trying ta suck some resin from the pipe before pops gets home,
put my lips to the mike
when the king got his power from a crown,
amplifying no,
earplugs in,
beat box in the shower,
for some reverberation,
just trying make it back from a long vacation,
still trying to find my way home,
but all alone I knew I was never alone, no your never alone,
smoking all that weed will make your molla chung sound,
stereo-oo,
we used to mix up frosted flakes with cherrio,
LSD , ecstasy sliced through reality
