Efendim Matisyahu su günlerde new york music chart´da 3 hafta birinci kalarak dikkatleri üzerine cekmis bir reggea sarkicisidir. Jewish Reggea gibi kendine özgü bir free style gelistirmistir. Uzun sakallari ve kiyafetleri ile geleneksel, tutucu bir yahudi görüntüsü cizerken diger yandan beat box ve reggea müziklerini cok iyi sekilde yahudi music kültürüyle kaynastirabilmektedir.
-no place to be
-Youth
-Live at stubb´s adinda 3 hatiri sayilir albümü vardir.
"Jarusalem" isimli parcasi reggea camiyasina bomba gibi düsmüstür. sözleri asagidaki gibidir:
{Chorus}
Jerusalem, if I forget you,
fire not gonna come from me tongue.
Jerusalem, if I forget you,
let my right hand forget what it's supposed to do.
In the ancient days, we will return with no delay
Picking up the bounty and the spoils on our way
We've been traveling from state to state
And them don't understand what they say
3,000 years with no place to be
And they want me to give up my milk and honey
Don't you see, it's not about the land or the sea
Not the country but the dwelling of his majesty
Caught up in these ways, and the worlds gone craze
Don't you know it's just a phase
Case of the Simon says
If I forget the truth then my words won't penetrate
Babylon burning in the place, can't see through the haze
Chop down all of them dirty ways,
That's the price that you pay for selling lies to the youth
No way, not ok, oh no way, not ok, hey
Aint no one gonna break my stride
Aint no one gonna pull me down
Oh no, I got to keep on moving
Stay alive
