Living Lchaim:
Meilech Kohn, originally named Elimeilech Kohn, grew up in a Satmar Chassidic family residing in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. He is the first cousin of renowned singer Lipa Schmeltzer.
Although he initially distanced himself from the Chassidic community of his upbringing, he later returned to it during his adult years.
This personal journey is reflected in his music, which encompasses a diverse range of influences such as Techno music, Mediterranean pop, hints of trip-hop, and the melodic tapestry woven from a life enriched by travel, attentive listening, and emotional vulnerability.
In 2016, he achieved unexpected success with his popular song “VeUhavata,” propelling him from relative obscurity to fame.
Meilech has been homeless, divorced, and running away from his community for many years and his story of teshuva is one of a kind.

It was worth listening to this humble Jew
So refreshing and uplifting to listen to a person who went through so much turmoil in life, accepting everything as part of Hashems master plan and not being hateful, resentful or blaming others for everything he went through
Special Jew and it comes through in his music Mazal Tov on his marriage, may he have only revealed good and happiness and a binyan Adai ad
