CTTP – Barber Talk | Perfectionism Is Killing Jewish Artists (Nathaniel Abitbol Tells the Truth)

Описание: Perfectionism. Fear. “What will people say?”
These silent forces are holding back Jewish creativity — and no one talks about it.

In this powerful episode of CTTP – Barber Talk (Cut 2 Da Point), we sit down with Nathaniel Abitbol, one of Montreal’s most respected live performers, for a raw and honest conversation about music, faith, identity, pressure, and purpose.

Nathaniel grew up inside the music world — trained by his father, DJ Dan Abitbol — mastering DJing, sound, lighting, live performance, and singing from a young age. But behind the success lies a deeper struggle that many Jewish artists face:

👉 Can you pursue music without losing your values?
👉 Can you grow creatively without chasing fame?
👉 Can music be a form of shlichut — not ego?

In this episode, we talk about:

Why perfectionism is killing Jewish creativity

The real cost of producing Jewish music

Why marketing is harder than creation

Balancing a 9–5 job with an artistic calling

Moroccan, Chassidic & Israeli musical fusion

Fear of judgment and community pressure

Lessons from Ishay Ribo on humility and purpose

Why so much talent in Montreal stays hidden

How artists can break through without losing themselves

This is not about clout.
This is about purpose, honesty, and creative survival.

🎧 Whether you’re an artist, entrepreneur, or someone navigating faith and ambition — this conversation will hit home.
