Habanot Nechama: Highline Ballroom, NYC, Jan. 12

I’m a be there!

banotSo yeah, I’m off to New York and then LA to help the gang get ready for the Jewlicious Festival. But the excitement will begin almost as soon as I land as the plan is to go to the Highline Ballroom at 8 pm to see HaBanot Nechama. I can tell you about my mad crush on MC Karolinal, or how these three amazing Israeli artistes met, or how their debut album went platinum almost from the get go… I can also talk about how their songs combine English and Hebrew lyrics as well as musical influences such as Reggae and acoustic-soul… but really? Here is one of their videos. The song is So Far off their self-titled debut album. You like it? Go to their Web site and check out their tour which will take them coast to coast in both Canada and the US.

But yeah, like I said – I am definitely seeing them on the 12th in NY. Get tickets here and say hello. Or punch me in the face. I don’t care.

Israeli Hip-Hop Single Features CK’s Favorite Dish

Does Israeli hip-hop artist BooSkills make shakshouka correctly? I can tell you right now, CK’s answer will be “no frickin’ way, my mother makes the best shakshouka.”

But if you’d like to see if the word “Shakshouka” rhymes with enough Hebrew words to be the featured player in a new Israeli hip-hop video, click, play and enjoy.
