    No....because I didn't expect MTV to pick up on good music.

    uhh...sweetie I don't believe christmas means much, to him anyway.

    and as to the whole being on Mtv thing I doubt it'll affect him like it does many other artists. :D

    I just started listening to him. His music is wonderful. It's interesting how well Judaism meshes with reggae. After all, we're already used to hearing about Zion in that context. He just has a different spin on it than the Rastafarians.

    however, that Dec 25 show will be over before sundown.

    as to the MTV. his handlers are out for as much hi-profile as they can get, and they don't care about the stepping-stone level anymore. I had to contact my Rabbi (they studied together in Crown heights) to get the interview for the paper last Oct.
    Turned out I used his comments from August when he read in the shul. yeah, I'm so allowed to do that....

    I think a majority of kitchen guys have at least secret sympathies for Nazis. Back of the house is madness.

    hes watered down reggae.

    hes sublime for a slightly different crowd.
