Brody was just interviewed on Israel National News: Remixing Jewish Minds with Music
INFO: Derek Cling and Natanel Danziger interview Jewish singer/hip hop artist Benyamin Brody, and talk about the inherent value that music has as a form of Jewish outreach today. They also discuss the general theme of music as being a ‘route to the soul’, and the importance of sharing positive, Jewish, spiritual music with the world.
