Matisyahu

A rap/reggae singer from the Lubavitch Community

Is he merely an entertainer?

Or is this another Zionist propaganda
program?

A listener of The French connection who lives in Montreal,
Canada has brought to our attention that the music industry is currently
promoting the songs from Matisyahu to the people who listen to hip-hop,
rap, and reggae. He thinks the target audience is mainly the college
students.

First, some background information on the music
industry.

Do you know what “Payola”
is?

Music companies routinely pay radio stations to promote certain songs
and artists. The payments are referred to as "payola".

Payola can be considered a type of advertising. As with normal
advertising, payola is used to promote artists that are believed to have a
potential for large sales.

When payola is given in secret, it is considered "bribery". However,
when music companies openly give money to radio stations it appears to be
just another selfish and questionable advertising practice that is
intended to manipulate the naive consumers.

Payola makes it difficult for small music companies to get fair
treatment, especially when it is given in secret. The Federal
Communications Commission doesn't care if small companies are treated
fairly, but they want to discourage secrecy, so they wrote "The FCC's
Payola Rules":
http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/consumerfacts/PayolaRules.html

It should be easy for you to understand the concept of payola
since it is virtually the same as the concept of advertising.
Specifically, music companies spend money to promote an artist in the hope
that they bring in a lot more money.

Why promote an artist when there is no
profit?

What would you think if a non-profit music company promoted an
artist? Since they would not be promoting the artist for money, what would
be their reason?

Well, Matisyahu is promoted by the non-profit JDub Records. They describe themselves
as:

"a non-profit New York based record
label and event production company promoting new Jewish music..."

www.jdubrecords.org/index.php?section=article&album_id=7

This implies that JDub Records is promoting Matisyahu simply
because Matisyahu produces "new Jewish
music". Apparently JDub Records does not want to promote
old Jewish music.

What do they like about the new
Jewish music? Is it because the old Jewish music was simply music, whereas some of the new music is Zionist propaganda?

How can this non-profit record company afford to promote music?
According to their web site, they are supported by these three groups:

• The Joshua Venture Fellowship
Their purpose is to
"...promote a more pluralistic American Jewish
community.."
www.joshuaventure.org/about/index.html

• The Natan Fund
They are "...a philanthropic
network of young Jews seeking to help transform the Jewish
future.."
www.natan.org/html/about.html

• Bikkurim
They are "...an Incubator
for New Jewish Ideas..."
www.bikkurim.org/about.htm

These groups of Jews are funding the promotion of Jewish philosophy
and music. There is nothing wrong with promoting the ideas,  music,
food, or clothing from different nations, religions, or eras, but are
these Jewish organizations doing this to make life more interesting and
enjoyable for the human race? Or are they trying to manipulate us?

What will be the effect on people, especially children, who listen to a
Lubavitch Zionist singing about returning to his homeland in Israel?

The effect of Matisyahu will be very, very small, but we are exposed to
much more than Lubavitch music lyrics. We are bombarded with Zionist
propaganda on a daily basis. We get it
from newspapers, music, school books, magazines, movies, the Internet,
most of the 9-11 “Truth Seekers”, and the television news.

Each propaganda piece by itself is trivial, but put them together and
it becomes significant. Most people, for example, believe that 19 Arabs
were responsible for the September 11th attack. This ridiculous conspiracy
theory comes from the Zionist media.

The Zionist propaganda has also distorted most people's view of the
attack on the USS liberty, Palestinians, the Holocaust, and Iraq.

The effect of their intense propaganda campaign is easily observed
simply by expressing the possibility that Israelis were involved in the
9-11 attack. The typical American or European will mindlessly respond with
remarks about anti-Semitism.

Another effect of their propaganda is that most Americans and Europeans
believe that the Zionists have a right to Palestine. Have you looked at The Thirteenth
Tribe? It explains that the Zionists are not related to the original
Jews that lived in Palestine, so their idea of returning to their
homeland in Israel is nonsense.

reggae music listener in Montreal, Canada.

Chabad-Lubavitch Reggae Singer

appeals with “Youth”

Matthew Paul Miller Matisyahu

From the Rolling Stone magazine:

Matisyahu, Matthew Paul Miller (born June 30, 1979), is a
young, up and coming novelty on the Reggae scene. With two albums out
already and his latest named and aimed at "Youth" pending release
shortly on March 7th 2006. With world renowned kabalist superstar
Madonna knocking at his door with invites to tour with her, would
anybody doubt his future star (of David) status?
http://www.rollingstone.com/news/story/9363668/matisyahu_hasidic_hot%20_stepper

More info about him is here:
www.jdubrecords.org/

www.chabadwashingtonsquare.com/templates/articlecco.html?AID=267560

On the road for nearly two years straight, his second album Live
at Stubb’s is selling like crazy and:

... has claimed the top spot on the reggae chart for six
straight weeks, selling more than 300,000 copies. "We're moving 25,000
copies of the live album a week," points out Charlie Walk, president of
Sony subsidiary Epic Records. "That's spectacular! It's a new movement."

www.calendarlive.com/music/cl-ca-matisyahu12feb12,0,7169793.story?coll=cl-calendar

Indeed, it does very much seem to be a new movement. Although a Jew
singing Reggae and finding inspiration form the Old-Testament had been
seen before with Bob Marley, his father being an English Jew who abandoned
him and his mother early on. I dare say Chabad- Lubavitch has never been
packaged to appeal to youths with such potential.

Good ‘ol Talmudic-Kabalism, one can’t spread it far and fast enough.
«Everybody’s gotta be on board, in time, for moshiach, now ! Don’t
they? Yes, so let’s work on our image…… » Is probably the reasoning
that’s behind this latest Chabad P.R. campaign.

Matisyahu sings Chabad philosophy

Let's look at some lyrics. From the album Shake Off The
Dust...Arise released in 2004, the song Got No Water is
brimming with nuggets of talmudic wisdom:

I said I know its hard inside is empty galus
(exile) cuts like a knife
...
Hashem rules the world and Israel is his wife,
...
Inside America bleeds, Israel won't
you get up from your knees
...
Chabad philosophy that's the deepest well-spring,

Gaining knowledge of G-d while your gaining
money

Got
No Water lyrics

From his hit single King Without a Crown:

Want Moshiach now so it's time we start
revealing
...
It's
hard to stay strong been livin' in galus (exile) for 2000 years
strong
Where ya been for so long

Been livin in this exile for too long

King
Without a Crown lyrics

From the album Live at Stubb's released in 2005. The Song
Exaltation:

The field and there in will be filled with
jubilation
The lord's name will be proclaimed
amongst the Nations
We don't have no time for
patience

Exaltation
lyrics

Now on their face the lyrics are innocuous but put in context with
the pop-culture-media-hype machine and the ‘coolness’ factor he’ll confer
to Chabd-Lubavitcher as a result of it they take on a whole new flavour
with a strong bitter Zionism aftertaste.

To those knowledgeable out there I invite you all to send in your own
take on some of his lyrics and follow up on his next album, Youth.

Matisyaju is said to sing of Torah but he is all about Talmud/Kabala
and Chabad. For example:

...he said no when Eve wanted to jump up onstage -- Talmudic
law restricts contact between the sexes and forbids women from singing
in public.

Also when Christian rockers P.O.D. invited him to sing on their new
album, Testify, he had to vet the lyrics to make sure there was no
mention of Jesus.

Even at shows, he has to watch himself. "There's always one drunk
girl who runs up to give me a hug," he says. "I have to pull away, and
they just feel rejection."
Rolling
Stone article about Matisyahu

And here’s more:

Matisyahu also preached to the crowd. At one point he got
down in a catcher's crouch and started to sermonize. "According to
Hasidic philosophy, every person, every being, even every inanimate
object has a soul, an inner rhythm, a life force," he said.

"This is the part of Hashem (the Lord) that makes us all one, a
unity, and brings us light. Our job is to illuminate the darkness with
our light. It is our true mission."

Matisyahu then began chant in Hebrew. He also recited the holiest
Jewish prayer, the Sh'ma, before the night was through.
www.popmatters.com/music/concerts/m/matisyahu-050130.shtml

Matisyahu lives with his wife and 6 month baby boy in Crown-Heights
Brooklyn, a neighborhood that has the nation's highest percentage of
Hasidic Jews; nearly every window has a sign that reads MESSIAH IS COMING!
Fitting for an ardent Zionist who would "… come out
with a turban on my head and a huge Israeli flag, and … walk around
throwing sage on people" during his soul-searching years. (quote is from above Rolling Stone article.)

I wonder if, in a few years, he’ll offer his son up to his reeb - for
his carnal pleasure? You know what they say, gotta follow tradition. Think
I’m kidding about this or recklessly throwing accusations around like
they’re going out of style? Then this is one of many links to check out:

www.come-and-hear.com/editor/america_2.html

Along the left margin of that web site, Rabbi Dr. Freedman is quoted as
saying:

"… if one committed sodomy with a child
of lesser age, no guilt is incurred."
Disgusting
are what those traditions are. I can’t help but wonder where Matisyahu is
on the scale ranging from useful idiot to true believer.

What we have here is the prototypal popculture emissary of Chabad
formed and created for the purpose of first, serenading to Jews at large
to cluster into hyper Jewery.

Secondarily, but yet essential to mission objectives, to further
indoctrinate Christian-Zionists to the cause and promote the concept of
Hasidic-Gentilism. Because within Chabad’s distopian hierarchy, there
exists, boxed in by the intransigent dastardly Noahide laws, a pigeon hole
for the obedient non-Jew, named hasidic-gentile.

For more on that movement and it’s encompassment
see:
http://www.noahide.com/index.htm

For as we well know the Zionists, though they have much worldly powers,
lack the sheer numbers to bring about the their messianic new age of ages
and thus need to recruit more willing participants from the non-Jew
population. Getting as many true-believers and useful idiots "in" with the
program as possible before the Great Reveal.

This Great Reveal is what he is effectively singing about when he says
"Want Moshiach now so it's time we start
revealing". "Moshiach Now!" is their group mantra and the revealing
entails showing the world the face behind the mask of world power, history
and events. This is part and parcel of the preparation for their plans to
subjugate the non-Jew, as their final blows shall be to flabbergast us
into submission.

Within "Exaltation" we find more references to the coming time of
revelation of their Moshiach "The field and there in
will be filled with jubilation". "The field" refers to the house of
Israel and the accompanying jubilation of crushing Essau and Amalek.

We also find "The lord's name will be proclaimed
amongst the Nations". This will be done through coercion via the
Noahide laws and destruction shall be the consequence to non-obedience.

And "We don't have no time for patience" is
quite self explanatory, thank you, as we can see abundant evidence of
scurrying about with a ten fold acceleration in the agenda in a mad dash
to their ends.

I must say that the following lyrics from "Got no Water", "Inside America bleeds, Israel won't you get up from your
knees", sent a chill down my spine when I read them the first time.

Thirdly Matisyahu is, after all the wretched kabbala stuffing we’ve
been subject to these past years, the appetizer to the full course meal of
Chabad-Lubavitch popculture banquet coming our way!

Can you see where this piece of the puzzle fits? Pulling the youth,
making it cool to be lubavitcher and hasidic-gentile..... I'm telling you,
just watch this. Expect to see everything from Chabad crooners, to
weathermen and news-reporters to lead roles on tv and movies to Pez
dispensers and bubble gum. Wall to wall Chabad! Enjoy….

Sometimes I’m kidding around in this article, but this is no laughing
matter! We all know what marketing miracles Madison Avenue wrought.
Remember the My Pet Rock insanity? Or
the latest flab buster 2-bit contraption everybody is trying to get rid of
in a garage sale if they’re shameless enough to display it? Right!

So remember to put Matisyahu in context with all we know of the pop-
culture media circus cornucopia of brainwashing tricks and technics. Think
of the influence his image and lyrics will have. Compare that with the
effectiveness others have had at dumbing-down and debasing the flower of
our youth, turning many into near pig demons. Granted the average
Lubavitcher, whether Jew or not, won't be robbing you at gun point in the
streets, rather, he'll be diligently working, in the open or in the dark,
to unseat Essau and Amalek, great and small, at every turn furthering
Zionist interests and goals.

You see, I’m non-jew and many years ago I went to a Chabad-
Lubavitcher's proselytising. I have no doubts whatsoever that they hold
their predatory racial superiority philosophy in high esteem. So after
having witnessed first hand the preaching of their twisted logic I know
for a fact that their plans are real and should not be taken lightly.

To those who are "in on it", it's a game. Now that we "know", the jig
is up! Shouldn't we also play to win??

So please pass out some mp3 CDs of Daryl's radio show to friends,
family or total stranger and be sure to include Benjamin Freedman's
speech.
