Probably a long shot, but closed mouths don't get fed :) Are there any other beatbox fans in this town?

Statistically there has to be lol, but it's not like we have neon signs either to help. So this is my neon sign, I guess? 😁 My family isn't into the music, so I have no one irl to nerd out with, but I'd like to change that if possible.

I've been a fan for 5 years+ now, and it's been quite the journey lol. Even if all I accomplish here is making new fans, it's worth the post :) Hopefully I meet some new ppl and we can jam out together.

Eta- lmk if you have Insta or discord!

Lmao bro it's so much more than that now. An easy intro would probably be an artist called Codfish. I recommend No Diggity & Black Betty. Headphones always recommended :)

You might like Gene Shinozaki, he's pretty musical, so is Show-Go. Napom is a little bit of everything, and Vocodah and Tomazacre for the head bangers sort (love these 2 guys). Also, the loopstation side of bbx is pretty fire too.

I once saw “Heatbox” in Springfield at a Martini bar downtown. It was awesome!

The closest actual scene is in KC, and I can't drive that far to go

I beatbox all the time. Used to do it at open mics before Covid kinda shut those down. I have an rc505 as well, if you’ve ever wanted to try using the ones they use for Loopstation battles on SBX.

Esh I can't bbx, so just a huge fan that helps when I can. I've commissioned a few to make videos for me, they're on my yt channel. Do you upload any?

I used to beatbox in my younger days. One of my old best friends that I played video games with is a WELL KNOWN beat boxer, it blows my mind to this day how big he is. His name is Kenny Urban. We use to jam out with a guy named Smvy as well as Roxorloops on ventrilo all the time. I’m not very good anymore tho, I’d need a beer or 2 to beatbox in front of anyone again 😅

Right on, ik who he is bc I'm a bbx nerd lol. Also just saw him in a livestream chat couple days ago; some battle entries were getting judged.You should totally dip back into the scene, bro. Some crazy stuff out there :)
