In several posts, I have defended Mattisyahu as being a role model, a good singer, ect.
I was just proven wrong today
i never listened to his music so i dont really get if it was ok or not. but the whole message was cryptic. can someone explain?
Care to explaine why?
You dont know all the details.
If he left or was pushed out
The Huffington Post has an article on the latest going on with Mattisyahu. This is the final paragraph from their story.
“Across various media outlets — social and otherwise — fans and journalists jumped on the facial revelation, declaring Matisyahu’s Hasidic days over. But the musician maintains he’s on a spiritual mission.
So which is it? And how does hair truly reflect religious devotion? Not surprisingly, it’s up for debate.”
His blog post is as about as cryptic as his music. I wouldn’t jump to any conclusions about his religiousness at this point.
It is quite googlable, if you need to find out. I must say that he has danced around the fringes for quite a while.
He says he still goes to mikveh and shul.
I just posted on the main page:
1) His Twitter account was hacked
I never accepted his music and never accepted his style or concept. I always felt he was “high” on the fame and not on the spirituality. That was my personal opinion and just stayed away from anything having to do with him. Heard one song at a HASC or OHEL concert and then he sang another and I walked out. I was just extremely turned off by him. Never connected to him or what he considered his message, for me it did not compute.
Zdad,
What are you talking about? Have you any clue?
Who are you looking to blame this on?
I suspect you have limited capacity for self responsibility.
It is always someone else’s fault. Specifically chareidim.
