That is wow though.

Brilliant. Hillbilly Beatbox. Yeehaw, mofos.

I used to be good at beatboxing when I was at school - videos like that show you there is always someone better so why bother in the first place and from other videos I know he's not the best - search roxaloops, he's some swedish kid I think he's got mad skills...

Roxaloops - check it out from 3:25 - the beginning is preamble. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0dq4LWB4b-s&feature=fvst

He's like a cool version of Aaron if he'd had a mic and a hoodie. :D

Sure "Looks" Like Aaron...

Sometimes being a Hip hop fan is a lot like being a Sports fan, as MCs, DJs, Breakdancers and Human Beatboxers all have their respective competition circuits. When the quality of the music started going downhill, in the mid-'90, I started getting into the competition side of things instead. In the days before I had a computer, I'd often travel overnight, on the coach, down to London, just to buy videos, from specialist shops.

I've done a lot of DJing, Beatboxing, and even Breakdancing, over the years, but the one thing I could never get the hang of was Freestyle Rapping. There's two styles of Freestyle Rapping - the first, and the best known style, is the Battle, which was made famous by the film 8-Mile. The second, less-known style, is when an MC will ask the audience to pass him random objects, and will incorporate them into his Rapping, whilst staying on-time to the beat.

Here's two 3-minute clips of each style:

My mate got into an MC battle outside a night club in Magaluf - f**king hilarious as it was like the second time he ever done it and the lad he was "Battling" was a DJ for the night club...

Supernatural was just banana's!!

Thanks for sharing Catskillz

Here's one of my favourite Breakdance battles: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6Hx6qZS9sI

The older Beatbox fans on here might be interested to know that the 1987 film comedy 'Disorderlies', starring The Fat Boys, is on tonight, on film channel TCM, at 7:15.
