    Well, as I am an old man, I did not know much about HUMAN Beat boxing.

    Last night on American Idol, they had one of the singers doing it, and I was amazed.

    So, I decided to do a little research on it and there are some pretty amazing people out there that do this.

    Anyone here beat box, or know much about it? As a 42 year old man, I am amazed.

    Check out this guy in Australia

    And of course the guy last night from American Idol....

    Is this really popular or common?

    You're about 20 years late.

    If anything, it's making a COMEBACK.

    I've never been a fan of it.

    I was in the kitchen cooking dinner when I heard the American Idol performance from the living room. I must say that they did about as good a job as physically possible with a cheesy, old, crappy song like that one.

    Isn't that an inherently racist thing to say?

    So were you too old at 19 in 1984 when human beatboxing started to hit the mainstream?

    Or, as others said, just too white and nerdy?

    Too busy bartending and partying, I guess....and I do remember art of noise but that wasn't human beat boxing.

    No worries, I think it is all in good fun.
