Everyone needs to be careful of the Kool-Aid Joe Thorn and others are trying to get you to drink over growing beards. Bearded men are dangerous!!! :) Second video is the best.
Matisyahu Minus Beard
Read Matisyahu's reasons for shaving his beard & dropping his "Chassidic reggae superstar" look...
This morning I posted a photo of myself on Twitter.
No more Chassidic reggae superstar.
Sorry folks, all you get is me…no alias. When I started becoming religious 10 years ago it was a very natural and organic process. It was my choice. My journey to discover my roots and explore Jewish spirituality—not through books but through real life. At a certain point I felt the need to submit to a higher level of religiosity…to move away from my intuition and to accept an ultimate truth. I felt that in order to become a good person I needed rules—lots of them—or else I would somehow fall apart. I am reclaiming myself. Trusting my goodness and my divine mission.
Get ready for an amazing year filled with music of rebirth. And for those concerned with my naked face, don’t worry…you haven’t seen the last of my facial hair.
