Global Hit – Y-Love

For today’s Global Hit, we meet an American hip hop artist who learned to rap in Jerusalem. His name is Yitzchak Jordan. But he goes by the name, Y-Love. Y-Love stands out in the crowd. He’s a Black Orthodox Jewish MC. And as The World’s Andrea Smardon reports, he likes to mix holy languages into his rhymes.
