AAAAAAAAAAHH.... That's Better


In the blog intro at the top of this page, we said that we embrace all forms of the culture (a given as far as i'm concerned). OK so technically this is still within' the realms of music but it is still a much under appreciated art. Especially in the current climate where fads in the music are a dime a dozen and not enough is being done to showcase how hip hop got to where it is in the 1st place.


Yes peeps, i'm referring to those Magnificent Magicians of Mouth Mechanics, the Beatboxers. From Ready Roc C, doug E. Fresh, Biz Markie & Michael Winslow (from the Police Academy films; Don't Front), to Killa Kela, Rahzel & Scratch, you know you can't deny how much you enjoy it while at the same wondering 'How the F$%k did he do that?' at the same time.


I have therefore decided to provide a few morsels for the good people to delect on. Just my way of showing some appreciation to a largely forgotten branch of the hip hop tree. None of you would disagree that we all just as amazed as each other when we first heard Rahzel drop his now legendaryAaliyah set. 'If Your Mother Only Knew'....

Some of these you'll know & some you won't. But that is beside the point beacause they are all bloody superb. Grab and appreciate....
