Well I haven't seen any threads about beatboxing around here, and it is after all a fairly large genre of music. Ok, so for those of you who don't know, beatboxing is the art of making percussion sounds and other similar things only using your mouth and vocal chords as "instruments". This started in the dawn of Hip-Hop and is mainly credited to the artist Rahzel. It has evolved a lot to this day, and though there are not that many mainstream artists, it is still a very popular hobby since it is so easy to practice. So, do you beatbox? And who is your favorite beatboxer? Feel free to discuss anything relating to beatboxing here!

I was always amazed by the skills of the man on French Idols. He made so many different sounds that all flowed together as if the were coming from 10 different instruments. It blew my mind when i first saw that and it still does.
