Beatbox Skills???

This is a completely different topic.

So I found this guy on YouTube, who is fuckin talented. This guy takes songs, going from video game instrumentals to alternative rock music, and beat-boxes to the tune of these songs in the background. His profile is here: http://www.youtube.com/user/TheBeatboxHitmanTwo

This guy is fuckin ballin. He's got mad skills. He can keep up to any tempo, and usually beat-boxes for about 2 minutes of the song. Any song turns into not only a hip hop version of the song, but adds a sense of techno rhythm. Right now I'm listening to him beat-box to Eiffel 65's Blue...fuckin classic never sounded this good. I've seen and heard beat boxers who spit their own beats and tunes, which is awesome talent for them. But I just love listening to familiar songs with the flavor of hip hop. This is him.


Gotta love his X-Box 360 sitting on the corner of his videos. But now...I'm getting Rick Roll'ed by him...just listening to him beat box to Rick Roll actually makes the song worth listening to. Shit...this guy has mad skills. So...probably Rick Roll everyone with this guy beat boxing to this song cause this guy deserves to be recognized.

And he doesn't just cover songs with lyrics or game instrumentals. Pachelbel's Canon and the infamous Fur Elise...this guy has mad skills. Makes me jealous that I don't have the skills this guy is putting out, but I respect this guy representing his art and soul.

So I just finished listening to him beat box to Fur Elise...he ended it on that...part of Fur Elise that sounds...way off and happy...you know what I'm talking about. He adds character to that part cause...awkward ear scratch and he goes "Yeah..." good stuff...

And to guys who aren't so into A Thousand Miles (cause of the movie White Chicks)...check him out beat boxing to A Thousand Miles. Hilarious intro...this guy is the fuckin man. Props go out to ya bro. Keep it real.
