He Quit Rap to Become a Jew

converts, why they would want to become a Jew. My best convert story, there was a man, a hip-hop artist, Yosef Robinson. What happened was he gave up being a hip-hop, he didn't like the the lifestyle and he felt there was no meaning, even though he was making ton of money. And I brought him to speak at Young Israel of Long Beach. And there was an African-American custodian of the shul, and he listened to the speech, and he loved it. And he says, "Rabbi, I got to ask you a question. Are you out of your freaking mind? You gave up the money to be with these people? You gave up the women to be with these people? Are you out of your mind? What's the matter with you?" They're having a conversation back and forth, and Yosef Robinson says, "I was kidnapped by God."
