Goldwag's first two albums contain mostly original compositions. The title track of the third album (Flippin' In) was meant as a rebuttal to Blue Fringe's controversial song Flippin' Out. His fourth album features a number of his fellow former child soloists of the Miami Boys Choir, including Oded Karity, Yitzy Spinner, Nochum Stark, Eric Stern, and Nachman Seltzer.
Goldwag has apperared as a guest artist on other albums and has composed songs for other artists.[1] He has also produced a number of albums for other artists, including Sheves Achim and Sheves Chaverim, which mainly include his own compositions and musical arrangements.
Besides for his music, Goldwag produces online audio Torah podcasts, which are featured on his website[2], as well as on Apple's Itunes. These lectures are known for their spiritual depth and will often quote deeper sources of Torah Hashkafah and Kabbalah. The weekly Parsha Podcast is downloaded by hundreds[3], and his popular Daily Kabbalah lesson gets about a hundred downloads per day.
