Pinchas Tsinman, who traveled from Pinsk, Russia, to perform in the Jewish Star Finale Concert, sang his self-composed upbeat hit ‘Your World’ in Russian.
“My singing in Russian showed everyone that you can sing in any language you want and any style you want, and still be part of the competition,” Tsinman told COLlive after the concert.
“I am so proud to have been the first Russian Jewish singer in this type of competition, to sing at a big concert in a language other Russians can understand. For me, the participation was not so much about winning the prize, but to break the stereotype that being religious is boring. My message to others is that you can keep Torah and Mitzvos and still do the things you are good at,” he said.
Your World
I wish to confess – I can’t stand the fight with the Yetzer Horoh (evil inclination)
It ties my hands, it keeps me away, from my soul’s song.
Friends tell me to be strong, to do the right thing,
but it all just sounds like nice words
I was singing my songs, and living my life,
when suddenly I realized the truth.
CHORUS
The world will become lighter
Just smile and everything will be brighter
Success will be always with you
And you will find your happiness
Now everything is bright.
My Shlichus (mission) is clear.
Mishnayos and Tanya are always with me
Feeling holiness warms my body and soul
To praise Hashem for the moon in the sky
For the coffee in the morning after farbrengen
The first step is always hard, right?
No, Hashem will always help you do it
IM RUSSIAN AND THE WORDS ARE SO INSPIRING! PINCHAS< KEEP IT UP!!!!!!
GO PINCHAS TSINMAN!!!!AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don’t think he is a kid he is married
i’ve heard all sorts of music before but it’s first time i hear russian rap, quite amusing.

I don’t see the connection to Matisyahu specifically. He just happens to sing reggae which is Matisyahu’s main style as well. But yeah, he is very talented. 🙂
Gutsy!
This kid is talented.!!!!!

all songs from # 4720 to # 3809 are his.
Very original, even though it is clear his apprentice is Matisyahu, however I can also hear some popular Soviet styling.
In any case, he is very talented boy and clearly will eventually find his own style.
🙂
