[Applause]
[Music]
oh sh
G
Jo to all the Eden in the Holy Land over
[Music]
there I love that song
Jo you should know by the way I could
speak in English right you have to speak
in English I'll translate don't
worry okay CH know this song
specifically right now I'm hearing it's
you know it's it's it's taking off this
song it's a big hit right now but I I
wrote this song I need people to know
the story I wrote it in the ra and
cracker you know the oh yeah we were on
a big trip and and the whole day we went
to aitz we went to burken we went to
places that were very tough to handle
you know was emotionally it was draining
it wasn't easy to see the places where
all the destruction happened the whole
day we were going through all these
places that night we went to
DAV in the
ra and in middle of I'm thinking to
myself I'm like is there anybody like us
in the world we go through all this all
this destruction all this hardship and
we come out even stronger we come out we
come back there we come back we're
coming back to visit we come back with
theas with everything from one end of
the spectrum to the other who's like us
Mish we we come out of these hard times
even stronger so right in middle of my
right in middle I quickly pulled out my
phone over Qui record feeling the
song there's nobody like us in the world
you
sounds like
familiar maybe you
know but that it sounds familiar a
little bit yeah could be a lot of songs
that are written in major you
know
like
a lot of the major songs they sound like
they're in this type of mode but you
know could be could be I don't know
maybe that's the sign of a good song
like what you
say Benny fredman why did you take
Benny Benny really I'll tell you the
truth is is that the high part the sound
is
that it has like like you
know so right away I knew Benny a little
bit we met a couple times we sang
together and and we became and you know
I felt like it was perfect especially
that
hey
[Music]
like
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
like
[Music]
hey
[Applause]
[Music]
he
[Music]
[Applause]
I'm
[Applause]
hey like
I'm
[Applause]
[Music]
brother
[Music]
like
[Applause]
[Music]
I'm
I'm I'm
it's so Hal to be now brother Benny what
are
you it's your
second how are
you how do you say how are you in
Hebrew m m like the slang You Know M how
you doing that could have been a good
name for the album m
m us about you
know so first of all if I'm like it's
the biggest compliment in the world
because what did schomo do schomo took
the the world of music and he made it so
meaningful he made that people could D
with it that people could relate to it
that the messages talk to everybody he
made it he made it he made it relatable
what's the word
Rel called in
Hebrew so so it's a big c for me that if
I can make music that people they
connect to and they think about the
messages you know it's even better but
haai you know ha is like slang like M so
like for me I go everybody I see ha ha
so I was like you know what we're going
to name the album Hawai re and it it it
started to stick also because the beauty
when you see another ye you can't how
can you not smile like like like would
say you see another how can you not
smile and say how are you you know what
I'm saying
no how are
you you're trying yes to be your but in
a
2020 yeah yeah you know when when when
when you say the the V or the story in
middle of the song it brings out the
message of the song you know I I want
that I want that my songs are not just a
new hit song I want that the song should
have meaning that people should
connected to their life in some way so
so sometimes when you stop the song you
take a break you say the V you say the
you say the story you say something in
middle of the song you're right it's
like that's what schomo did schomo took
everything and made it you know made it
made it great again made it meaningful
so so you know the point of putting the
v in the story in the song is so that
people could let it sink in what does
this mean how does this talk to me how
does this relate to me you know
especially by the way especially in in
Corona with everything you know I came
out with this
album in during the whole craziness you
know during the whole thing with Co you
know so I was looking at it maybe like
people need a lot ofic right now people
need a lot ofic you know so hopefully
the album could uh could do that you
[Music]
know no no interesting story my father's
about Chua my parents are both Bal
Chua and uh but my my family originally
originally my father's grandfather's
from Bells so originally we come from
Bell you know but you know we grew up in
in Queens New
York you know so uh connected mixure
what like a mixture like like a mixture
became a mixture of everything you know
my father loved breast he loved kabad he
loved Bells he used to take us to bells
in um you
know
you yourself or you
know is CL I'll tell you the truth but a
lot of people think that I'm bre because
of the messages that I say so it happens
to be I I do connect to you know I learn
his his stuff I share it with with
people you know but I also learn I also
learned and I learned everything from
one end of spectum to the other so it's
it's really all one
happens to be I appreciate what how
talks to today's generation and how he
how he's bringing a certain message of
an and different things to this
generation so I appreciate it you know
if somebody would say are you breast I
would say no maybe yeah maybe no I'm
saying you
know you come in the
house talk to me about that song Give me
a word about
it my friend Ali Malik bloomstein so if
you look in the album cover for my album
some of the songs are written by uh my
friend Ali Malik bloomstein we we really
look at each other like a like a like a
partnership we're together so he writes
a song he'll send it to to me I'll write
a song I'll share it with him and then
we'll work on it together you know so to
he introduced to me the first time I was
actually
inas and uh it was Friday afternoon we
spent shabas inas and he introduced to
me the song it was Arab shabas Friday
and we were talking about how uh how the
rabbas used to say you know you could
taste the chicken you could taste the
food you could taste the cogal you could
taste the the CH but did anybody taste
shabas how many people tasted
shabas so we said first you start eat
you taste from the food of shabas but
then the Avid to go from that into
tasting shabas you like that
[Music]
song
[Music]
la
[Music]
go
[Music]
ah eeden
[Music]
you
[Music]
let me tell you about the halar and
carer he would sit Friday night and he
would look at all the eeden and he would
say maybe you tasted the fish for
shab maybe you tasted the soup for
shab maybe you tasted the chicken
forab then he would look at everyone one
and he would
[Music]
say that anybody here did anyone taste
shabas did anyone taste shabas for
shabas so
say
let's
together
let's together so sing with
me May
[Music]
for
[Music]
you come maybe it comes from from the
word like no came like like to have I
don't know when people came over to
America off the boat you know from
Europe who knows what happened to the
names
but I even to this day I don't know the
history of that
name yeah far
[Music]
gener
message 100% there there's no question
there's no question there's no question
that people are looking meaning once
upon a time I don't think people listen
to music as much as people listen today
but besides for that you see today's
they starting like you mentioned the cak
right so people theak all over the place
I mean even here in farak and the five
towns and lament and like places that
you would never think you know they
they're they're having different type of
Min with singing and singing and singing
the is turning to music I don't know
maybe what it has to people are people
need today's generation they need music
with the messages you know how many
emails I get and text messages and
whatsapps and whatever that a guy says
you know I heard your song you fall down
you get back up it was mik me you know I
heard me brought me to people are
looking are looking for messages people
are I think maybe that's why a lot of
people are connecting to my music now is
because of what you're saying I agree
100% that people need that the music
should be meaningful and talk to them
you know
[Music]
except
for feedback which song you know you got
a lot of so one of the slow songs I got
a lot of feedback on and by the way what
we were saying before I just realized I
I usually tell the I usually tell people
like imagine you heard a speech for 10
years and then the rabbi said whoever it
was who was giving that speech said the
same thing in the speech and then you
hear it one time in a song it goes right
in the the power of of Music spreading a
message is that is that we need to use
music today to bring certain messages
into people's hearts because if some
people could give speeches and speeches
and speeches but it doesn't always go in
the same way
that
for yeah what song is the like the most
popular regarding feedback regarding
people okay so
besid right and besides for how W which
the likes um I get a lot of feedback
from uh there a song goes like
this open my eyes I feel bad there's a
lot of English over here it's great we
see the beauty of your
title open my
eyes and let me
see the wonders of your T I got a lot of
feedback from s a song called open my
eyes also Hal Gata get some good
feedback from that one Hal Gata and then
there's a song in Hebrew there's one
song in
Hebrew I get a very personal feedback
usually when people send me messages
like beautiful song I
like I get personal messages people send
me specific things in their lives that
this song they feel is and those very
personal stuff I can't even say what
they are
[Music]
but how was it to sing in
Hebrew how is it I love it I love
singing Hebrew I wish I knew how to
speak
better
right you're cheating on us and you know
Hebrew I'm just just want to break my
teeth and not only that I made up the
lyrics
myself you know
Hebrew what's your
connection wow
yeah uh
oh wow wow wow wow I wish I could be
there right now I wish I could be in the
I love I loved it over there I learned I
learned in in
in and I learned
in but I used to go every every weekend
I used to go one weekend I was in B for
shabas one weekend I went to
we
went
I tell me a word about
it so this song really you know I teach
Ina in the morning here in
Far what you
teach basic you know we learned we
learned uh some we learned some we
learned some gar we learn you know
whatever it is you know it's a very it's
a type of Yesa that's meant for people
that couldn't sit in the classroom they
couldn't stay in a system so they came
to it's more of an open environment and
my R is new newom is my R my R is new
newow so one of the guys told me he said
he said Rabbi I have no more I have no
more I tried this I try to fight this
yet that that that whatever it is so so
right way we sat we went in the car
together and literally this this song
was written for this boy it was Mish it
[Music]
was sometimes you think you don't have
but really you
have you wrote it right
yeah
[Music]
I'm serious listen this beautiful you
know what it is may maybe I have the to
write like that this this boy actually
is from Israel so we you know but um but
uh when when when when I'm feeling it in
the moment a lot of the songs that I
write I don't sit down and work on it it
just comes in a moment so it could be
that you know the the way it comes out
smoothly like that because it's it's
coming from a place of uh of inspiration
you
[Music]
know
[Music]
for
[Music]
spee
[Music]
spe
[Music]
I
[Music]
feel
[Music]
for
[Music]

you know when the
Hal was the Shamus by the list
he used to hand out to all the that was
sitting
around there was this one time where the
rebel was staring at Shila was staring
and staring and
staring said rabba what are you staring
at what's different what's going
on that said don't you see how child is
giving out hundreds of
B but I

[Music]
fore
[Music]
Yosef
[Music]

how are
you so we did a a you know during Corona
on on we did a truck we drove around I
was on the back of a truck and we drove
around different communities here in in
the five towns in far it's called okay
yeah we were singing and singing and
singing so my friend El bloomstein who
was behind us in the car behind us we
kept on screaming out
everybody so the song was written right
away like that night
iten the song was written to those words
and then the
part after that I said wait a second
it's there's so many beautiful
parts

[Music]
say
get get
[Applause]
[Music]
get
you
you you
[Music]
you
yes yeah yeah was a single before the
album
right is the concept of of
of there's a few words in there it's in
English there's a few words that say um
the greatest level of
a is when I could look back and I could
see that everything was perfect for me
that the words
are the the of the word really means to
look back to retract your thoughts so
the was more of a you know right
after Tish we released the shab two
years ago you know was it one year ago
two years one year ago one year ago nak
so so the the concept of the song was is
that how are we able to get up off of
Tish and we're still in here in dllas
and we're still dancing we're
singing and we're dancing Tu we're
dancing so this was the concept of
to be able to real realized even after
Tish that everything I went through that
may have looked hard was really perfect
for me so I could even dance over it
that was the concept of to bring that
people know that everything that happens
is the best for
[Music]
them
y
everybody everybody waiting for the day
everybody's waiting for the yesu we
coming right
[Music]
away
love everybody's waiting for the get
everybody's waiting for the day
everybody's waiting for the yesu we open
praise coming right
away
[Music]
wow wow wow wow wow
[Music]
you didn't grow up in like a a little
bit a little bit my my my parents are
always listening to music always
listening to me they were listening to
AB rotenberg they were listening to a
lot of Mor and David yeah it wasn't
necessarily a musical it's an
interesting story by the way
there one day my father decided randomly
to buy a guitar to this day
what ohir
okay we don't know
why I I ended up taking the guitar and
learning and learning and playing but
now later on we realize why I realized
that they wish to had him buy a guitar
for me
[Music]
but so we weren't so musical but we're
always listening to music we always love
music you know
[Music]
yeah two
[Music]
sisters where is your
respiration yeah you know my I mean in
the house we we you know there there was
a lot of we did listen to a lot of you
know my parents were very into listening
to music um my my parents loved you know
they used to take us to
the and you know and and and I went to a
school in
in it's called it's a school here in far
that also a lot of uh every every every
dancing and singing there so there was
my my my growing up the whole influence
of my life was a lot of sim dancing and
S danc
you know how to
speak right not all singers they could
expresss
[Music]
right you know why
[Music]
because
[Music]
do you connect or you go to your style
and you don't care what's going on what
stuff today yeah there's definitely
music today that I listen to I I listen
to you know I know shomi lives over
there I love schlomo stuff I love aan
stuff I love you know um uh some you
know some of zusa stuff I know zusa has
some
[Music]
stuff
[Music]
you know it's very interesting before
even my first album I was doing a lot of
things Word of Mouth people heard about
me they said oh he plays guitar he
doesn't I had my little speaker system I
would set up you know and then after I
put up my first single and then the
album and then one thing led to the next
so throughout the whole process I was
doing I was singing at Sim and at
weddings at bar mitz and whatever and
then slowly but slowly you know it just
went from one step to the next you know
but I think this album also hit very
hard there's a lot of messages here that
people wanted to hear you know it's
interesting because it's better than
your first one I'm not saying it no no
no no I'm not saying it at that in that
point of view I'm saying that if someone
brings a huge album as the first
[Music]
album
[Music]
people told me people like oh you
people no I agree that a lot of people
have sometimes feel that the second
album I think also you know I I think we
definitely stepped it up to the next
level you know uh the this album was
definitely brought up to the next level
but you know it has to start somewhere
but you know hopefully number three is
going to be even better than number two
who knows who knows you know it's only
the beginning
what do you want to
say I
think tell me a word
about
so I saw this word from that is talking
to every single Jew in the world and
means that sometimes you have to know
how to leave the past behind M so the
middle part I heard the words I think I
think put those words right somebody
once sang me a
song that that the middle part of this
song is those words because it connects
to the whole thing sometimes you have to
know how to move on to be able to
let the past go you
know
[Music]
new you got to leave the P
behind sometimes you got to leave the
past
[Music]
behind
[Music]
spee
