Jewish art-rapper makes fancy music in Oakland

Psst: Oakland art-rapper Yoni Wolf recently divulged that he's working on a fancy new album with his band Why? -  set for a fall release on Anticon records. The curly-topped Jewish performer told Pitchfork.com that the album, Eskimo Snow, will be his least hip-hop-y record ever (Pitchfork posted an excellent interview with the super cute vocalist here.)

According to a blurb in the Seattle Weekly, Judaism was actually the inadvertent catalyst for Wolf's interest in music. He is a rabbi's son and he first started writing song's when he discovered an old four-track in the basement of his father's synagogue.
