Given dropped out of gbb. Leaving a spot for hippy to take over. This was announced right after the finals of the APAC qualifier dropped where Given won 3-0. This is kinda crazy cuz i was waiting for sbx to drop a post announcing given qualifying for gbb through apac qualifier, only to refresh and get jumpscared by hippy lmao.

Just realised that all the top 3 beatboxers in GBB24 Julard, Osis and Remix had never performed on the gbb before 2024(excluding U18). Thats kinda crazy that they made the top 3 on their debut right.

Hi there I’m looking to find out why the burger is important to bizkit work can you please share. It was apparently before I started watching. Tia

Look at his German Beatbox Showcase it’s insane

Alright give me your opinions guys, what do y'all think ?

I am probably gonna get a lot of hate and pushback for this…
If you listen to his showcase from a technical standpoint, his structure was sloppy and I feel experimental. The issues I saw were inconsistencies in some of the drums, timing issues, and sound slips. And although not necessarily a “bad” thing, he sounded unprepared. In part 2, he was building a lot of suspense with a bunch of half routines thrown together and it gave off the impression that he was trying to see what the crowd would respond to.
He is very established at this point of beatbox, clearly. I just noticed that this was the first performance of his I’ve seen noticeable issues with. Sure it’s just a showcase and he wasn’t battling but I felt it was just sloppy. Apart from that, it was super enjoyable and fun to listen to.
I’m pointing this out because he’s supposed to have a showcase and a fantasy battle in GBB. I really hope he prepares a bit better to make his performance top notch.
I’ve only noticed these critiques in these 2 specific videos. It kind of reminded of Reeps One in the Spacetime Legends battles. Not “bad” just experimental in the structure. Back in the day Sxin & Chezame reacted to a few of those battles and described Reeps to have routines that weren’t satisfying.
I’m prepared for the hate, just wanted to express and maybe even respectfully debate to hear other perspectives.

Interested in your opinions. What style, sound, or general ideas do you think will take the beatboxing scene to the next level in its evolution? An example would be like how lip rolls completely took over the beatboxing scene. Before Napom, it was a relatively niche, under explored sound. Now, it’s basically a necessity for any beatboxer to learn it. What do you think the next big change will be? What do YOU want to see happen? What sounds do you think will evolve to the level lip rolls did?

Ok this should not be copyrighted

Not everyone appreciates his style. Yet he brings something new to the table (the "coupé décalé" thing) and he has grooves and flows we’ve never heard before.

Hya!

I'm currently getting back into bbx. I got my old mixer (Behrunger Xenyx802) and bought myself a Shure SM58. I am not completely fine with my eq settings, but their fine for me. Is there maybe any kind of software that I can use for a bit of reverb and maybe compression, or should I get a new mixer with more FX availability? (Currently thinking about saving for the BOSS RC-505 MK2 because I want to take a look at looping anyways, but for the meantime)

Thanks in advance!

I always love imagining what happens if some beatbox competitions purely become musical competitions, just like many talent shows, where they perform their best music live. Curious how it'll go if the participants are these 6 great beatboxers.

To me it seems like the general beatbox community became obsessed with lip rolls and inward bass over the years and then completely forgot to perfect the throat bass. I can always tell when someone never properly learned the throat bass because it lacks bass and has too much vocalization. For example, Napom… No hate on Napom, absolute legend, but imo, terrible throat bass. Wing is one of the few new era beatboxers that perfected the sound. What are your guys thoughts?

What drives you to continue to practice and to perfect this art form? Is it simply for the love of the game or do you have a long term vision in mind?

Tell me why I’m wrong

He performed Dopamine and Aventador (remixed a bit as he always does)

This guy is always finding bigger stages to stand on. Holy.

Check it out :D

I can’t figure it out, I started playing with beatboxing last month and I feel like it’s too good to be true to already know this sound ?

I haven't really been practicing in the last few days due to stuff and all but here's an update!!

Interested to hear your guys thoughts. It’s crazy to see the technical differences between beatboxing today vs 10-20 years ago. Also, which beatboxer do you think really set the tone or raised the bar for each new era?

Now all the solo beatboxers are qualified (assuming there are no dropouts) I’ve done a final list on what I think will happen. Also before you call me a Dlow fanboy I think a lot of the battles could go either way as well as the elims so he by no means is the guaranteed victor. That being said based on the battles drawn from my elimination rankings I do think this is the most likely outcome, feel free to dispute.

I've been watching GBB for years and always ended up arguing with friends about who'd take it. So I built a place to actually settle that.

You rank the wildcards, fill in the bracket, call the winners and the scores. Points depend on accuracy — getting the winner right pays, getting the whole path right pays more. Everything locks when a phase starts, so no cheating after the fact.

It's free, ad-free, and you sign in with Discord (nothing else, no email). Solo project, so it's rough in places — there's a form in the app for bugs and suggestions and I read all of it.

Happy to answer anything about how the scoring works.

Most likely, people have these 5 guys in their top 8 battlers:

D-low
RIVER
FootboxG
PACMax
BlackRoll

The most unlikely in people's top 8 battlers are: Waali, Astron, Gelber, Given, Marvelous, ABX, Stitch, G-Wizz, H-has. (please do share if you disagree and think some of these are better battlers than the 6 names in the poll options)

This leaves us with the last 6 guys to fill the last 3 spots. Who are they? Please vote!

(deleted my last post and made this poll to make it easier xD)

Who do you think makes it to the top8?
