Matisyahu at Fillmore Auditorium
That his 2006 album Youth was a (commercial, if not critical) hit seems just as unlikely as the idea of a former Deadhead making a career out of being a rapping Hasidic Jew. It also means the pressure is on for Matisyahu to outpace that novelty aspect of his persona and make good on the following he’s built for his reggae-flavored jams, something he’s been putting off for years now with the eternally delayed follow-up Light, which was finally released in August.
