In attempting to keep up with the ever-shifting winds of pop culture and the even faster-changing trends of fashion, everyone's favourite ultra-orthodox hip-hop artist, Matisyahu, has ditched his yamulke in favour of a dyed-blonde spiky look circa 1999. Oh, the price of fame... Ironically, the fact that he has shed his trademark curly sideburns and skull-cap is making more waves than the fact that rapper Wiz Khalifa, with whom he is pictured in an Instagram photo he took and disseminated himself (thank you, Mark Zuckerberg), to be smoking a joint! Priorities, people.
Unfortunately, Matisyahu does not have any Canadian tour dates scheduled at the moment - much to my chagrin, since the guy puts on a killer show and exudes so much energy he should be plugged into green technology. His partners in crime, the Dirty Heads, do take some time this summer to come across the border, landing in Ottawa for Bluesfest July 13 and Toronto's EdgeFest the next night. The Bluesfest gig is one of my most anticipated shows of the summer as this will be my first chance to see DH, a band ive been known to describe as "the illegitimate child of Sublime of the Beastie Boys, if they hooked up at a college party." Dont miss it!
