Sticking with the producer of his 2012 album Spark Seeker, Matisyahu chose Kool Kojak as producer of "Miracle," his off-album holiday single that makes Chanukah sound like party time. That is, party time with utmost respect for tradition, as "Just livin' in the miracle, candles are my vehicle/Eight nights, gonna shine invincible" kicks off this tune on the kosher tip, and all of it delivered in a dancehall rap style since Matisyahu was once rightfully dubbed "the Hasidic Reggae Superstar." Kojak pumps him into "Hasidic Dance-Pop" territory with a backbeat that's prime for radio, club, and uplifting commercials, and none of that is meant as criticism. "Miracle" is an uplifting tune that deserves to be delivered in slick packaging, and with the remixes pumping up the beats, this spirit isn't just going to move you, it's gonna make you sweat. - iTunes
