Mordechai Ben David attacks contemporary Hasidic music, and compares the wild bochurim dancing to electronic dance music at certain weddings to "the sin of the golden calf."

Strong words from someone who made a career out of plagiarising 80s hits

What a retarded take, what would people for 1700 poland who only had fiddles say about keyboards, and a full brass section... MBD might be a talented singer but he is clearly not a talented thinker. Sad.

Ironic given how he introduced Hassidic Rock....

Very lazy take. MBD a good a good guy but this is such a classic older generation doesn’t understand younger generation thing and he should we self aware enough to see that. He doesn’t have to like it but he also doesn’t have to compare it to the worst Jewish sin of all time.

People in glass houses ...

Oh boy. As if we didn't hear about music in his day.

i disagree the minute the music starts being fun then its automatically “goyish”? lol no thanks totally disagree

Behold the wisdom of the ribnitzer in full effect.

Except that he was that on his time.

As if he never plagiarized 80s pop hits...

Mbd in his time was just as similar, if not much more, to the contemporary non jewish artists back then.

@Chusidel

i have my reservations about contemporary jewish music as much as the next guy, but thank god for bochurim dancing together!! if it’s a sin to dance along to music with ur friends, lock me up with the homies immediately

Eh, stupid

Michal-coded (we have this on our side too)

Yerushalayim is not for sale Remember that one I’m not gonna agree or disagree But I do know when he sang in English he caught flack from the Chasidisha Community My father Abraham was told by G-d to sacrifice his son Say Hineini I am ready to serve you with Love Legend MBD

Ultra giga based. Modern Yiddish music is utterly sacrilegious.
