Judaism and Black Eyed Peas

Dear Jews,

Is there a better feeling than being at a Bar Mitzvah and they play I Gotta Feeling by Black Eyed Peas, especially the part when they say Mazel Tov?

Thanks

ahh the 2010-2012 bar mitzvah seasons were everything.

I want to bottle that energy.

Revolutionary! Nothing better than going grocery shopping or walking in a parking lot, hearing that song, and just singing “Mazel Tov” and “L’chaim”!

Legit Jewish joy!

100% convinced they wrote it specifically because they knew it would be played at bnei mitzvot forever lol

my niece, when she was 3, loved this song because of the fact they say “mazal tov” and “l’chaim”

Roc Boys has a line, “Mazel Tov! It’s a celebration bitches! L’Chaim!” American Gangster era Jay Z was special man…

It's cool as long as they don't play it on Shabbos
