Well reggae is actually about global unity, so anyone can partake in it.

Reggae is about global unity?

In any case, Judaism is probably the second most appropriate religion for reggae, right after Rastafarianism. Rastafarians do believe that Ras Tafari and Selass belonged to the lost tribe of Israel.

I thought it was about drinking rum and getting high

I was talking more the imagery...reggae artists have a certain look about them...a guy wearing traditional Jewish garb, singing reggae, looks a bit...silly? Perhaps not...I just know the first time I saw his video on MTV2, it made soda come out of my nose.

 

[Queasy]

kosher reggae?

You know...it's pretty decent until he uses the phrase "essence of my being"....at that point his lyrical skills instantly drop to the level of a junior high schooler trying to sound deep to impress his English teacher.

Heh...I liked to mess with my English class my senior year in high school by riffing on lyrics from The Doors. I think I had my English teacher thinking I was borderline suicidal.
