LYRICS (Hebrew, English, German, Yiddish)
Eshet chayil mee yimtza
Verachok mi’pninim michra
Batach ba levbala
Vashalol lo yechsar
You wonder what hasidism has to do with hip hop?
Not much one would think
that’s why I’m here for you to make the link
Have you noticed both words start with an H
Inflame passion in me but also rage
I know you are looking at my style and think like wha the F***?
I gottcha
A bomber Jacket and shtreimel
Not the usual combination
it’s my representation
of these two worlds
and I actually kind of like it
Extravagant, non-chalant, just you wait
Tomorrow everybody will be late
Cause they have to get themselves the new trend
Yes my friend
That’s where my rap could end
But no I’m on a mission
I made a decision
I‘ll marry hassidism and hiphop
and you won’t stop, a rock it to the bang bang boogie say up jump the boogie to the rhythm of the boogie the beat
You know how hassidism to the shuklin?
You know how hip hopers to the head boppin?
It’s actually quite the same
both worlds don’t give space for a dame
The one shows tits and asses quite a lot
the other ones barricades everything that’s hot
But neither if them allow true femininity
women's divinity is not just their virginity
but overtrumps men in infinity
Eshet chayil mee yimtza
Verachok mi’pninim michra
Batach ba lev baala
Veshalal lo yechsar
She’s worth Far beyond pearls - the ideal wife
but where is the trace of the praise in real life?
What’s wrong with these beautiful ugly worlds
enslaving encaving the girls
Behind the kitchen stove
to bake another loaf
Or make them shake their asses for the masses
She is like a merchants ship
that’s what they sing
Huge hips, only wearing a string and a lot of bling bling
Huge hips taking care of billion children
she has to bear
Huge hips seen in video clips
when she sips a sex on the beach
That’s what you teach?
What’s wrong with these beautiful ugly worlds ?
Where women only serve as a decoration on a xmas tree
I sing for liberation
one day they shall be free
to let hair down wearing the crown of a bride
these beautiful ugly worlds
where women are only seen on the screen
Behind bars, wearing leopard leotards
Sein Blick ist vom Vorübergehn der Stäbe
so müd geworden daß er nichts mehr hält.
Ihm ist, als ob es tausend Stäbe gäbe
und hinter tausend Stäben keine Welt
behind the bars of the Benai brak or borough park or ghetto
Ikh bet a tog vet kimen un frume froyen kenen singn,
frume froyen, lebn frume mener - di velt volt geveyn a sakh shener
Eshet chayil mee yimtza
Verachok mi’pninim michra
Batach ba lev baala
Veshalal lo yechsar
Sheker hachen,
Vehevel hayofi,
Isha yirat A-donay,
He tit'halal
Tnu la
Mipri yadeha,
Vi’yhaleluha

Why make fun of religious Jews, they will be around long after your descendants are notzriim
I've listened to this song a few times now since i came across it about two weeks ago when searching for Yiddish music to help me learn the language and i have to say it is not only a masterpiece but also that i am in awe of your talent. Thank you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
what a compliment! thank you Joey. Lots more yiddish songs on the channel :)
BRAVO!!! that's soooooooo great. loved it. thank you for sharing and putting effort to bringing out ❤❤❤
I'm a polish German catholic and I find this to be an absolute banger! Hoping to catch you in minneapolis next week!
Ooo!!!did you make it to the show! It was a goodie
Thanks, thats so great to hear!
@RabbiT-qh8pd yes I did. I danced a bit by myself but didn't join the line circling the floor. Lots of fun great jazz songs and originals. And that finish with What a Wonderful World...chefs kiss!
@@RabbiT-qh8pd guess I got concert part deux at the cabaret. Was that you playing guitar?
@@josephohotto4906 yes yes! and the next video that will be added to lea's youtube channel is a home-recording of colors of the wind. so you got the sneak preview, let's say
Incredible artist. I saw you in Prague with Der Šenster Gob and it was amazing. So is your music online. Hope you have a lot of attention in your country and community, because I find your music phenomenal, although it's not my genre and also don't know much about your culture. Greetings from the Czech republic :)
Thank you soooo much, that means a lot! I will be back in Prague with Der Senster Gob in November! If you check their or my FB, we will announce it there!! hope to meet you!
NIce. Love the Quote from Rilkes "Der Panther" :)
Yes!!! Glad you caught it :)
Love your style!
i still find this performance as exciting as the first time after 2 years and countless viewings ✨❤️
Same! 🥰
Hoi Lea. Das isch würkli Hammer !
Kol haKavod - תודה רבה למילים שלך
תודה לך!
The only Jewish woman in the world who owns a strimel. Love the music video. Would love to see more vids and see you live in London, UK. Shakoyach :-)
Thanks! Hopefully soon, once quarantine is over:)
@@LeaKalisch It'd be amazing to find you in London. Greetings from North London.
@@LeaKalisch Beautiful clear voice combined with theatrical-all-goes personality...Absolutely love your musical shows. Go big girl...Respect & lv from UK 🇬🇧
@@leviz5810 Thank you Levi for the respect and love!
@@LeaKalisch Yeah we gotta see you here in the land of the Brits :p
When I saw the video for the first time, I thought it was vulgar. Now, after watching it countless times I think it is wonderful.
Thank you Sonja, I'm glad. I hope you've seen that I'm not trying to disrespect any side of this. What are your thoughts now?
I’ve been filled with rage at the Chassidim for some time now. My father’s entire family were Chassidim, all murdered at Treblinka. The combination of the above has given me a headache.
And I found this to be crass and vulgar. You lost me with the shtreimel. I’m not sure which is worse, going to the scene of the “criminals” in Jerusalem, the Manhattan dance with all wearing shtreimels, or the rapping, amateurishly appropriating the music of people who beat Chassidim and never get called on it. Maybe stick with Edith Piaf.
@@haroldsteinblatt2567 If your father's family was Chassidim, and they were murdered, why are you filled with rage at the Chassidim? Why do you think that the residents of Jerusalem are criminals? Some black people beat Chassidim, but some Chassidim beat Chassidim.
Edith Piaf's career and fame gained momentum during the German occupation of France in World War II when she performed in various nightclubs and brothels reserved for German officers and collaborating Frenchmen. She also helped some people escape the German occupation.
מעולה! איזו מלכה!
תודה ממש!
This is just beautiful. Even wunderbar:)
:)
Just watched this again after nearly 2 years since I first watched it. Love it!
ዋው ድንቅ ነው
😍😍😍💋💋💋❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🇪🇹
אלוהים איך פספסתי את הדבר הזה זה מושללללם
את צודקת אחותי ;)
Mucho loko :-)
I am an orthodox Jewish woman and I think that you are beautiful. Kol hakavod !
Doubt it 🤣🤣
Thanks Ruth. Words like yours have been very important to me. Some people think I'm disrespecting or making fun of orthodoxy, but I actually love and value so much of the religion/culture. Glad you could see that.
OMG - love it! I debated whether or not I should post the link on my FB page, but decided against it (in view of all the stuff going on politically between Hamas & Israel. I also am a Jewish Christian & I didn't think my friends would appreciate it.........particularly my pastor. BUT, I APPRECIATE IT!!!!
No such thing as a “Jewish Christian”
Epic!
Thanks Lori: :)
Obsessed with this video / song
Yes!
טוב טוב טוב מלכה
Rilke's Panther...sehr schön
Genau!
דו ביסט דבסטע וואס איך אב גאטראפן

Ich glaub ich spinne...beste Grüsse aus dem Hause Kalisch:)! Black sheep all along, yea, so müd geworden from se Vorrübergehende..^^
No words, only ❤️.
Cool.
Hilarious and good. Anything in Yiddish?
Thanks! There is a line of Yiddish in there:) you can find plenty Yiddish songs on my channel
No idea how I got here but I'm very glad I did!
and I'm so glad you did! What are your thoughts and reactions?
@@LeaKalisch Ha! Great joy and entertainment :D I subbed and will check out more...
@@LeaKalisch I'm also highly impressed at the use of different languages, I'm assuming hebrew and yiddish?
@@DJW1981 The opening and refrain is Hebrew. There's a little bit of Yiddish in there. And the most "aggressive" rap line is actually in my native tongue, Swiss German.
@@LeaKalisch I speak some German but not familiar with the Swiss dialect. I saw you speak French too, most impressive!
cool gemacht lea megaaaaaa:-))))))))
Epic
You're awesome
Toda raba Lea, for this great song and it's spot on! I found this video on FB, I wish I found this sooner!
Glad it found you!!!
Zayer shayn!!!
Some heroes wear capes , tight pants and fly a bit.
Some wear a shtreimel , a skirt , and blast a beat .

חילול ה'!
The world has been waiting for stuff like this
So fucking creative!!
We need more fresh Jewish music like this!
Check out the yiddish covers and mashups i've been putting out lately, hope you think they're fresh!
This is PHENOMENAL. I found this from Twitter, a rabbi shared it who isn't a fan but I am now your biggest one. BH and good shabbos. Incredible.
Thanks so much! Who was the rabbi:)?
Didn’t like the Striemel, not enthus for the lyrics but you dance, oh the dance.
Priceless
This is how I always wanted to sing Eshet Chaiyl! Wow, it’s beautiful, catchy and unapologetic, - like the modern Jewish woman we need so much to be represented! Thank you girl ♥️♥️♥️
Hi Mascha, i just saw this now. Thank you soo much, so glad it resonates with you
Res Ipsa Loquitur!
רפואה שלמה 😢😢
Absolute mindfuck. Beautiful anyway, and I keep listening to it.
You're a fine fucking artist Lea
Thanks so much!
The day you were born, you carried the future of the world as with all women.
A man's future is carried by his wife.
Happy Tu B'AV
Just fantastic ! Hammermässig! My ultratalented sister
Hallo Cousine :)
I am an artist and worked with music more than thirty years in L.A/ Hollywood and I am also a Jewish woman and can not see the point for disrespecting the culture of many as using an shtreimel like you are doing... if you want to make it in the secular music industry, better reconsider other people’s values... we must respect people’s culture and it’s not cool to bring their culture down just because “you are down”. This is not cool.
Lyrics?
Unglaublich gut!! Gänsehaut und Tanzlaune gleichzeitig!
Danke danke!
Deuteronomy 7.6 (GNB)
Do this because you belong to the LORD your God. From all the peoples on earth he chose you to be his own special people
Very very strong!!!!
Todah Nitsan!
I always found it funny how for a movement that maintains that woman is actually the most spiritually advanced of the G-d's creations, even more advanced than men, Hasidism has a funny way of showing it. Asked a rabbi once how come Torah could endorse a woman as a judge and a leader of her nation, but we see no women on Ultra-Orthodox Beit Dins these days, still waiting for a coherent answer.
Where's the music. Got it. She knows how to wiggle and make me wriggle. Words betray her unhappiness with G-d given gifts of being a woman.
I am a religious Jew, and This video made me feel like I am on LSD In an awesome way💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 keep it up I’m hella gonna watch this when I’m high 😂
This is amazing and hit me right in the heart. Love from Jerusalem.
Love back
Lea you are an amazing dancer!!!!!
Отлично!
LMAO you literally walked through a religious supermarket doing this
You need JESUS CHRIST (John chapter.3:3).
@@kaitlynmckessy4250 Holy Moses! Read the room...
@@kaitlynmckessy4250 Never put a Sock in a Toaster (Bob chapter 12:8).
I love you so much Lea!! You hit the nail on the head for this one. Much love from NY.
Thanks so much!

Hard to believe that so many think this is cool. It's irreverant, immodest, and disrespectful. Chutzpah!
