Rappers and Rabbis Release New Sukkot Music Hip Hop Video Featuring Rapper Kosha Dillz

Rappers and Rabbis, the largest Jewish hip hop collective in the nation, has released a new music video just in time for Sukkot, which starts this Friday evening. They reimagine prayers, reinvent holidays, and use music as a means to connect with Jewish youth.

Rappers and Rabbis have developed interactive and hip-hop-inspired prayer books, Havdalah services, and Passover Haggadahs. They've reached more than 2,500 kids through performances and workshops in camps, schools, and youth groups nationwide, inspiring the next generation to embrace their inner MC.

Their latest release, Sukkah MCs, is a music video that pays tribute to the upcoming holiday of Sukkot, also known as the Festival of Booths. This song is already making waves, thanks to its educational yet fun approach. With captivating cinematography by Tolu, a renowned filmmaker from New York (Newark), and direction by Rachel Haymer, aka Kol Isha, the video brings the essence of Sukkot to life.

The Sukkah MCs music video not only showcases Rappers and Rabbis' talent but also features a guest appearance by the viral sensation Kosha Dillz. Kosha starts as himself, the rapper we know, before transforming into one of the Ushpizin. These Ushpizin are biblical figures traditionally invited into our homes during Sukkot, with each night welcoming a different guest. In this music video, we witness these ancient figures navigating the modern-day Sukkah.

Enjoy!
