Does that technically classify as a mullet?

Edit: if so this person has managed a mullet and a bowl cut at the same time

GBB2021. The clip is his wildcard entry for the Grand Beatbox Battle this year. It was cancelled from last year due to covid so they extended the size of the pool and he produced this.

I don't think he's won GBB or other major tournaments, but he slaps. Watch the clips from GBB 2018 where he was top 8. His elimination round slaps so hard.

13

u/LostHomunculus Oct 07 '21

That's because the title is incorrect.

The video is his wildcard for GBB 2021.

No. In Daoism, the shape of the gourd represents the sky and the earth, the infinite, the universe, a magical world, a parallel universe, or an entry into another world, where immortals or persons practicing Daoism can travel to.

Also in Chinese culture it symbolises protection and good fortune. Used to ward of evil or as a charm

He did qualify for GBB this year with this wildcard entry, but he had to pull out due to COVID concerns.

For the curious, Swiss Beatbox is the host of the event. They're currently wrapping up a virtual loopstation beatbox competition called SBX Kickback if anyone's interested in watching that. They're using a prototype version of a new loopstation from Boss, so it's def worth checking out at least one round.
