The Holy month of Elul is upon us once again. Really getting ready to connect and come closer to Hashem, our Father, our Master, our King. That Hashem reigns supreme is our national anthem. We cry out in unity, “אין לנו מלך אלא אתה”, we have no King except for you. Thinking about how I spent my life the past year, while in the presence of the King. Did I study Torah, perform Mitzvos, Daven, give Tzedakah, do Chesed, take care of my family properly, as I should have? Can I truly say I made Hashem proud of me, through my actions and behavior? After all, my Father in Heaven deserves to have some Naches, in return for all the blessings, He has bestowed upon my family and I the past year. Before asking for another year of health, sustenance, naches, success and well-being, I will first thank Hashem for all He has graciously showered upon me till now. Then I will make myself worthy, for His continued blessings the coming year, by reflecting upon my misdeeds in the past, doing Tesuvah for them and committing to live a more sincere Torah life in the future. How appropriate it is at this time, to release this beautiful anthem song, אין לנו מלך אלא אתה right before Rosh Hashona, as we pledge our allegiance to our beloved KING and altogether coronate HASHEM exclusively once againה’ מלך, ה’ מלך, ה’ ימלוך , לעולם ועד.

Kol Haneshama
The Jewish Nation once again prepares for the Yom Tov of Shavuos, eagerly preparing to recommit themselves to living a Torah life כאיש אחד בלב אחד. How befitting it is then, at this time, to release the heart warming melody of, “כל הנשמה תהלל י-ה.”
Now is the time for EVERY living נשמה, with their WHOLE נשמה, to praise and thank Hashem, for every single breath granted to them, from last שבועות till this שבועות.
Covid taught us a great lesson. We can’t take the breath of life for granted. Since Hashem gives life for a purpose, we need to try to utilize our time properly, in His service. Every moment is precious. Sometimes, only when we are short of breath and can’t catch our breath, do we appreciate every breath. In such a moment this heart warming song of praise was born. It captures the heartbeat of life, gifted to us by Hashem, that gives us the energy to move forward and accomplish. By studying Hashem’s precious Torah, performing His Mitzvos and creating generations devoted to doing His will, do we sanctify His name in this world.
Thank you Hashem, for every heartbeat and every breath of life.

Yehi Lebe
Having experienced the great Yom Tov of Shavuos, זמן מתן תורתנו, the time Hashem gifted the Torah to the Jewish People, surely most members of כלל ישראל accepted upon themselves once again to observe the Torah and its teachings. They reaffirmed their allegiance to only do Hashem’s will. Each and every one of us called out once again the famous words of “נעשה ונשמע, we will do and we will listen,” just as our forefathers did at Mount Sinai כאיש אחד בלב אחד, one nation, with one heart and one soul.
How appropriate it is then, as we leave the Yom Tov spirit behind us, to take this melody with us, sung to the holy words composed by King David יהי לבי תמים בחקך למען לא אבוש. “May my heart be wholesome, to serve you without shame, now and forever, to have the proper intentions, even when we don’t fully understand Your will and have no explanation for what is happening all around us.”
May it be Hashem’s will, to help us serve him with joy and with all we have. Sing this beautiful prayer of hope and connection and continue to take the Yom Tov inspiration with you.

Ki Vo Yismach Libeinu
“כי בו ישמח לבנו , כי בשם קדשו בטחנו” “Only in Hashem can we find true happiness”. The false democratic free world we live in, has tried very hard to have us believe that happiness is obtainable through monetary objects and fantasy experiences. Dovid Hamelech had it all and taught us otherwise. “כי בו ישמח לבנו” That true inner happiness can only be found in “בו”, in Hashem’s service. It is acquired by being aware of Hashem’s presence constantly, trusting solely in Him and connecting to Him through the study of His Torah and performance of His Mitzvos. That is the Kings prescription and advice for true everlasting happiness. Everything else as we know it, is here today and gone tomorrow. This song is perfect for a Rosh Chodesh Adar release as it is one of the most joyous months of the year and exemplifies that Simcha and Kedusha are tied together. It rekindles our hope for the future and generates happiness for the Jewish people in all generations. Just by singing this exciting new song “כי בו ישמח לבנו” you will be inspired to this reality.
Enjoy, after all משנכנס אדר מרבים בשמחה

Avarecha Es Hashem
Composer, Singer, Speaker and all around Talmid Chochom Rabbi Yaakov Singer is back with a new song to help us bring some Simcha and joy into our lives.
This new upbeat and cheerful song was created in a moment of great joy. Rabbi Singer says “I was thinking to myself, is there really any adequate way for me to thank Hashem? It’s impossible. He is constantly giving us what we need, his kindness is endless, how do I ever catch up and pay back? I am always indebted, will there ever be enough thanks for us to express to him?” So he started to sing. His Neshomo proclaimed, Avarcha Es Hashem Bechol Eis. We are ALL required to constantly bless and thank Hashem for all he does for us, so we need to Avarcha Es Hashem Bechol Eis (bless Hashem with everything we have consistently).
Once the song inspired his appreciation for all Hashem does, Reb Yaakov contacted Hillel Kapnick to produce the track with him and make it readily available for the world to enjoy.

Emes Emes
אין לנו מלך גואל ומושיע
As we approach Rosh Hashana, coming out of last year with all of its challenges and going into the new year, we should all realize that only Hashem can solve our problems and help us.
The secret to the continued existence of the Jewish Nation is Emes – The truth we live by daily.
ה’ האלוקים אמת – משה אמת ותורתו אמת.
In the finale, that truth which we have served and sacrificed so much for, will triumph, ushering in the Geula.
While visiting Yerusholayim last year, Rabbi Yaakov Singer had the privilege of having his grandson join him and his wife for the Shabbos night Seudah. During the meal while singing zemiros they experienced a tremendous hisorerious and deveikos enhanced by the holy air of Yerusholayim Ir Hakodesh. From this relaxed spiritual setting sprang forth the tune and words of Emes Emes. No doubt it was a real struggle trying to remember this special melody throughout Shabbos. Right after Havdallah Rabbi Singer’s grandson Yitzy Kushner pulled out his guitar and to the sound of his cords they sang and sang. Together they recorded that Motzei Shabbos this beautiful heartfelt melody of Emes Emes.
The next step as always was for Reb Yaakov to contact Hillel Kapnick to produce the track with him and make it readily available for the world to enjoy.

Hu Elokeinu
Following the success of the release of his three singles, in addition to his latest live talk which explains the vital hidden spiritual message contained in the word LEFONECHO, Rabbi Yaakov Singer is proud to present his fourth single.
This new song titled “Hu Elokeinu” was composed by Rabbi Yaakov. One day while learning with his chavrusa they came upon a difficult Gemarah. While his chavrusa stood up to look for an explanation in a sefer, Reb Yaakov in a moment of spiritual inspiration while reviewing the Gemarah, started to hum the tune while chazuring. This niggun made its way in to the sweet words of the Gemara.
While alone in the Bais Hamedrash after the competition of the seder, this lively dance song was then sung by Reb Yaakov, until these words of Kedusha came to his mind with the yearning for the Geulah. He started to sing out “V’hu Yashmieinu Berachamov Sheinis, L’einei Kol Chai.” It is a song inspired by Torah learning. With Tisha B’Av behind us and Elul just weeks away, it’s time to be B’Simcha and ask Hashem to help us attain Teshuva M’Ahava. Hu Elokeinu was produced and arranged by the talented Hillel Kapnick.
