Obituary: Matti Caspi

Renaissance man whose distinctive and eclectic music had a deep impact on Israeli culture over many decades

"His thigh is bleeding, but his heart paid it no mind."

I don't speak Hebrew but still listen to Israeli music, and this track is (still) a banger.

If there's any hope for #IsraeliHipHop it can be found in this #song. Some of the most #clever #wordplay ever, and just fun to #dance to.
