DAMOJO Spotlight: Zusha

Wow. All right. We just finished a great concert here in Paakana. You guys were amazing. Zusha Elite Kosha Travel comes through again. Every time they put up to the challenge, they deliver. >> There's a reason they're called Elite. >> Yes, there really is. I mean, between last year and this year, they blow it out of the park every time they put on the show. And that's just one part of the whole vacation experience. But we're here now with Zusha, with Schlimey, and with Zach, with Zahara. And uh what do you guys think of our community of Elite Push Travel? Unbelievable. Unbelievable. How can I join? How where do I sign up? Are he rules for the >> be just a bento? >> Oh, okay. Then I have a few years. I'll get there. >> And and you have to like Syrian food. >> Oh, I I actually maybe we could uh come for dinner one time. I need to get a taste test. We don't know. >> Try to get to try out before you convert. >> My wife was authentic and our food is really good. >> Right. Okay. >> Amazing. Amazing. Really amazing. So you guys, so everyone's wondering, you have this combination of this uh this uh pop music with this kumit style music. Where and how did that all develop and blow up to what it is today? >> Um I think every every year we're in a different place and what is Hashem asking from us? I think um it says in the mission that a person that learns 100 times is not no comparison to a person that learns 101 times. What's the the difference? A person is learning this 100 times they're know all the information so well but um does right that the extra time is you're pushing yourself to do something new something that you're not used to you're breaking your habits. So for us >> we used to learn 100 times that was habitual that was routine. So 101 no one that was unheard of. Someone learns 101 is not doing the standard. They're going above and beyond. >> So for us, we're always trying to make something new. We're always trying to push ourselves a little bit more. And for the past 10 years, we've been doing different kinds of music. >> Me, I push that. >> We've been in different we were single and we were living together and then we had married then we're then we had kids. So we're in a very different place and we're still >> we were in Brooklyn. I was in my Now we're finally like 30 minutes away. We got a lot more done. But the point is um >> we are trying to do something that's never been done before because that's what Hashem wants us >> because everything else has already been taken. >> Hashem doesn't want to watch and press repeat and replay. I saw this movie hundred times. Hashem wants who you are and where you are right now. So that's where we are right now. >> Sh there. How does it feel to inspire Khali is through a song through the Paros song and all the different uh inspirational pisuk that you guys choose to put into the songs? >> It's it's like beyond me. It's beyond us. It's even my wife sees it like it's it's it we're doing our little part, but Hashem does the rest. Meaning we invest just a little ounce of one more than the 100 and the one and Hashem just multiplies by thousands and thousands of of influence and impact. It's like our job is just to try to try to do a little bit more and so to be able to impact all these people it feels like a little bit of like okay we put in some energy but then a lot of it is just like wow this is like on a Hashem's making this happen. It's not me. It's not Zack. It's not me and Zach, the the sum that is greater than the parts. It's like this can only be explained by doing what he wants to happen in the world and us being to be a part of it. >> I have an idea. How about we join you? We make like a four. >> I could get up there and join. Why not? You know what I'm saying? It'd be great. This is safari combination. >> By the way, [laughter] by the way, we No, no, no, no, no. By the way, we already are. His wife is Moroccan. My wife is Moroccan. So we're being >> very nice. Amazing mash come from all the great work that you guys have done. >> My my wife's grandfather was the tailor of the king of Morocco, but I heard from another friend that there are many tailor the king of Morocco. But either way, it's still pretty cool. >> Pretty good. >> Do you have a personal favorite song that you guys sing? >> I like I said tonight, my my personal favorite for right now, it always is changing. But my personal favorite is um Don't Leave Me on My Own, our song um because that song to me is like I need to hear it. So I keep singing it to myself. I keep singing it to my I sing it to Zach. We sing it to the world. This is a very powerful message about empowering feeling empowered by Hashem himself that Hashem is singing to you. I can't do this without you. to feel like you're helping like you're Hashem's so to speak that Hashem created the world in such a way where it's not just him he he invites us even though he doesn't need us but he created in such a way where he does want us to be a part of it to partake and to feel empowered and to feel like an ambassador of the aishar in this world and that is that is like a message where when you actually feel empowered like what you do matters like that you can make a difference that you could change that the words you say could impact the whole When you dive in or when you do this, you could tip the scale like the Ram says inv that a person who does a full chuva is someone who actually believes that whatever they're doing at this moment tips the scale of that can inspire the youth who feel like they want to run away. Why do they feel like they want to run away? Because they're not needed because there's a hundred other guys learning the same doing a great job. But if someone goes and sings around the world for the people who need to hear it like Zach and I are trying just to remind you by the way you also matter. You also matter. You also matter. That is like the message I feel like if any of our songs can make a difference at least that could that's like the explicit song for that idea. But every other song we're also trying to say the same thing that you should sing it too. You should be a part of it. You matter. So that's my favorite song because of the meaning of the song. >> Wow. And also the melody feels like it came from beyond. >> Doesn't feel like it came from me. >> Wow. Wow. Wow. >> You should continue to be successful to continue to have more music, more inspiration, and really continue to uplift all of Israel. So, really just to wrap up. >> Zach, what's your favorite song? >> Favorite song? >> Yeah. >> I don't have I don't really have favorite song. I don't have like It's my They're all my children. >> I think the one you're singing at the time that's your favorite song. >> All my favorite in some way. Not yet. >> Wow. >> The ones we're working on. >> No, the truth is everything that you put your energy into, you have a respect for it, you have a love for it, and the more energy and the more time and the more sacrifice you make for it, the more special it becomes, right? >> That's why we're in the longest galut. This is the hardest work we've ever done. And that's why this generation is ready for Mashiach because we're so >> we're ready. We're ready for Mashia. Mashia should come soon. >> We waited. >> We cried. an inspirational song like yours. >> Yeah. >> David Cameo, we have to give a special mention to you. You don't deliver, you overd deliver. >> This really was a great trip. We're wrapping up >> all of them. Honestly, [laughter] no. Really, the one you mentioned. I mean, how can I lose value? It's it's exactly what everybody screaming inside. I mean, it's telling Hashem, I need you. And speak. How can it not speak to anybody? It's that's what drew me. Honestly, I didn't even know about you guys until my daughters, you showed me. I was like, these guys are unbelievable. You know, I'm happy that, you know, my girls can listen to something like this and be, you know, not listening to other stuff, but listening to Jewish music and being inspired. And when I heard that, I was like, I like these guys. So, fact that I'm I'm listening the same music as my daughters, it it's amazing. And you guys should continue doing this. You have no idea what you do to, you know, to Yehoudim out there. You're inspiring them. you're pumping them up and making them feel like, you know, you understand me and and just by doing that, that's that's enough. >> Keep it up because honestly, you guys are unbelievable. Even the way you spoke on stage, not only about singing, but you're also speaking about, you know, babali and you're speaking about, you know, to words of Torah. It's a huge thing. >> It's a huge thing. You should give the co-op to do this for years and years to come. >> Amen. Amen. When's the next album coming out? Well, we're actually going to we're going to Los Angeles, a city of angels. Um, and we are going to work on it in the beginning of this coming month. So, a week about a week and a half or two, we're going and we're going to start cracking. We have a lot of ideas that could be on their way, but we're excited to like just start from scratch as if we didn't have anything. >> We're working with >> we're working with the biggest songwriters in the world, I think, uh, for the most part. people that have really like big big songs and our goal is to channel that energy for the Jewish people for our for the brothers and sisters we have to inspire them to to put out music that's positive that's not just about uh materialism and not just about collecting things for and how much can I get but >> also a lot of also a lot of these um a lot of these songwriters are and producers are are yhoudim meaning we want to da work with yhoudim that are giving to the katuma Huh?
