Roll them in here, it's about the concurrent Singhers
- Matisyahu (Matthew Paul Miller) : 32 years old, Jewish, Reggae singer. I love his music and effective messages in his lyrics, the depth. Now, what's so Singhy about him ? The music, fusion of reggae, rock and his Judaism style of singing; Intelligible lyrics; Above all, I appreciate how he manages to always wear his kippah, talking about his live shows. You can read about him, at his wikipedia. My favorite tracks are,
- This place belonged to an austrian surrealist, she removed her myspace profile, the page from where yahoo pipelines used to dig her latest posts, it'd take a while for this spot to be filled again, RIP hypnagogic lady's MySpace page !
- Humble The Poet (Kanwer Singh) : 28 years old, one of the finest Sikh rapper coming out from Toronto. His writing skills say it all. In his words :
"All these lames, they sound the same, Im a lion of Hip Hop, complete with the mane"

Whats so Singhy about this fellow, well, I've been following his music for a long time now, I love the way he portrays/ spits his thoughts in his music. The stuff he writes about is ground real, listen to his "Reparations" track, where he talks about his dad, I mean how many of those young age rappers are including these lucid topics in their concern. He's been featured twice on allhiphop.com, one of the biggest hip hop websites in the world, he says, "I think it's validating to see me in the forefront". He is a fire in rap, he could be an easy inspiration for any "practicing rapper". Being a 3rd grade teacher, you would be surprised to find yourself turned into a rapper, with 23,000 fans from Facebook population, so is he. "I would love to change the world. I would love, you know, when they find the bullet-riddled body of the next Che Guevara ... I would love for them to find my CD in his personal effects.", he says. If you haven't known him lately, go understand his music : http://www.thepoetproject.com !
