My son and his girlfriend made me listen to this song on GodTube and it sounds very reggae, so I'm skeptical because I've heard some bad things about reggae, Bob Marley and such....but I don't know???? Just hearsay.

Anybody know anything about this band? / Type of music?

Matisyahu (born Matthew Paul Miller, June 30, 1979) is an American reggae musician.

Known for blending traditional Jewish themes with reggae and rock sounds, Matisyahu is most recognizable for being a member of Chabad-Lubavitch, a chassidic group of Judaism, but has recently left Chabad-Lubavitch and is now a mainstream Chassid, looking into the Karlin Chassidic sect. As such, Matisyahu stands out for wearing the traditional clothing of Hasidic Jews and not performing on the Sabbath...

I've never listened to any of his music, but have heard that the lyrics are quite positive. Maybe someone will know more about him. :)
