And does he have a site? Can't for the life of me remember his name -I read an interview with him a while back, and he seemed very sincere, not schtick-y at all.

Now that the mystery is solved, this thread needs to turn into an "invent stage names for Hassidic reggae singers" thread.

This is roffletastic.

i certainly do, but rastas consider themselves true jews.

some rabbis believe that rastas are the lost 12th tribe or whatever

― charleston charge (chaki), Thursday, 17 February 2005 20:30 (twenty years ago)

exactly. it's very weird. and, i can't help but think, quite wannabe-ish on the rastas' part. i mean, do the jews with the curly hair down their cheeks go "hey, brother!", when they pass a dreadlocked burning spear freak in the street?
