Who’s gonna make you happy when you’re your own worst enemy?

My music is not really about one ideology. It's not about one truth.

There is an idea in Kabbalah that the creation of the world is created through space. God is an ever present Being, and in order for anything outside of Him to exist, like this world for example, there needs to be what's called a TumTum[a], or a withdrawal of Godly-like. And that withdrawal happens not by connection but actually by separation. Conflict. And in the gap of that conflict is where the world is situated. That's where the world is created and lived.

Some artists are bound to an image: Bob Marley has dreadlocks, Matisyahu has a beard. But that's a reminder that the whole thing is not about style. It's about music.

You're looking for help from God, you say he couldn't be found. Looking up to the sky and searchin' beneath the ground.

The religious lifestyle keeps you focused. It's helpful when trying to manoeuvre through the music scene.

I'm vulnerable reading people's comments on Facebook.
