Review of Hassidic (yes, Hassidic) Reggae

I would like very much to hear this on the radio. I'm not jewish, but find the culture and the people to be very interesting.
The story about the linkages between Reggae and Judism and the inspirations this young man found in the music where facinating.
This is the kind of story that, if I heard it while scanning through stations, I would stop on and listen to, very likely through to the end if it where under 15 minutes (as this pieces is).
