Matisyahu stuns Maui ukulele player after impromptu duet
COURTESY MAYJAH RAYJAH
Matisyahu performed at the Mayjah Rayjah on Saturday.
PAIA » An ukulele player at a Maui coffee shop sang the duet of a lifetime with reggae artist Matisyahu, all the while completely oblivious to his famous singing partner’s identity.
Matisyahu and his bassist Stu Brooks were getting coffee last week before heading to a Maui beach when they heard the man start strumming the singer’s hit “One Day.”
Brooks suggested Matisyahu sing along and started filming the impromptu duet. At the end, the ukulele player shakes Matisyahu’s hand and tells him he has a beautiful voice.
That’s when the clean-shaven Matisyahu, who sported a full beard at the height of his popularity, reveals his identity.
The stunned ukulele player was invited along to Matisyahu’s concert.

There be angels among us.
Kanaka maoli of Hawaii would likewise be stunned to learn that Matisyahu is a Zionist with no love for ke kanaka maoli of Palestine. And to think he plays reggae, yet! What irony — the music of Jamaican blacks whose forebears were slaves. The music that defines social responsibility.
As long as he ignores the rights of a sorely oppressed people he won’t see a single penny from yours truly.
What is the difference between “hanabata” and “hanagusu”?
The method you discharge it from your body. Bata comes from your nose, gusu comes from your mouth; aftah you suck it down from your nose into your mouth. Now you educated!
who cares
I don’t think he cares about your single penny. And neither do we.
Historically, no such thing as a Palestinian.
All my life I´ve been waiting for
I´ve been praying for
For the people to say
That we don´t wanna fight no more
They´ll be no more wars
And our children will play
A nice and pleasant story. Mahalo for sharing!
Why is this news? When did the SA become “People” magazine?
Slow news day.
Manoa, newspapers publish human interest articles. Although this one doesn’t interest you, it will obviously be enjoyed by hundreds of thousands of viewers, myself included. Chicken skin!
Ditto
Nice.
