I love this artist's fusion of hip hop/rap styles and India inspired meditative topics. This first album flows beautifully from track to track, inspires meditative breathing, is upbeat without being busy, and is actually pretty darn fun. Tracks like Ganesh is Fresh or Rock On, Hanuman give a fun twist to really old tales whether you are familiar with them or not. I enjoy using this in conjunction with light meditation or stretchy yoga as well as a "wake up" cd first thing in the morning, or to keep me inspired while cleaning house. If you are looking for something a little off the beaten path and enjoy Matisyahu, this may be the new CD you have been looking for.

"I was a John Peel listener like anyone who had any taste, any lonely soul - there were a lot of us and it was great when we all got together. He played this. I'd never heard anything like it. It was around that period after the Mexico Olympics and the Black Power protest and to this day, surely, this must be the first hip-hop record, not in terms of its music composition but in terms of the content. Everything is there. It is supreme. I wanted to know more about it, so I went out and bought some books - Soul On Ice, Seize The Time, all those things. That's really powerful. John was never quite as bumbling as he liked people to think."
