Down the Hatch, Up the Hip Hop Hoodios

Who said Ladino was dead? I did, actually. I may have been wrong.

For anyone seeking non-lame Chanukah music, I recommend Ocho Kandelikas, by the Hip Hop Hoodios, a band, I'm told, that originated in Bosnia's Sephardic Jewish community.

A tip to the home-boys (home-hoodios?) Um, nice use of the bagels. But it ain't Sephardic fare.

You should hear Gods of Fire’s Metal Gone Hanukkah. Eight albums of Hanukkah metal glory! Six originals and 2 covers. One for each night.
