Beatboxing is a form of vocal percussion connected with hip hop culture (it has been called the “fifth element” of hip hop) although it is not limited to hip hop music.

It is primarily concerned with the art of producing drum beats, rhythm, and musical sounds using one’s mouth, lips, tongue, voice, and more. It may also involve singing, vocal imitation of turntablism, the simulation of horns, strings, and other musical instruments.

Therefore it could be said to be a genre of a cappella music although it can be employed alongside other instruments. It may have some historical connections with other vocal traditions such as scat singing and puirt a beul.

Before this, I really hate beat box and something like that (I’m sorry, but if you do love, that’s great!). But once my friend show me Joseph’s performance, I really shocked as this is the first time I ever heard something incredible like this.
