Matisyahu on creating One Day, new acoustic EP, getting a record deal, a World Cup song, & more!

As a Grammy nominated artist, Matis developed an incredibly unique sound blending inspiration from Bob Marley and Rabbinical Jewish teachings to infuse his work with meaning and reggae authenticity. He is now releasing an Acoustic EP called Hold The Fire with Adam Weinberg, which the duo have spent countless hours creating different sounds with familiar feelings! Matis has been on quite the journey developing as an artist from when he realized that it was his dream, to becoming the first artist his friend's new label signed. Matis shares the impactful story of One Day, the worldwide recognized song, that has been a unifying anthem which got substantial traction from the World Cup! The story behind the song is almost as fascinating as the lyrics and melody itself. He also breaks down why King Without a Crown became a success, due to its live nature and other elements. Few have had the influence Matisyahu has had on reggae, hip hop, and music culture as a whole and his new work is an extension of this goal! He shares his journey overall, future aspirations, and talks about the new EP.
