I agree with you 100% - In fact, I love Persian music - especially the more traditional kind played on a Saz, baglama and tar.
My point is more about the Jewish music that is presented to Jewish kids as Jewish music.
The American organizations should be bringing over the Israeli bands who utilize the reggae, Arfican groove, hip hop along with their Hebrew language and culture - to give American Jewish kids some musical role models to compete with the contemporary US musical culture.
The American youth would be proud - like you are in listening to Matisyahu - and not embarrased to call it Jewish or Israeli music. |
