“Beats are not created by me. I am beats.”
Viewed first on idnworld.com, this beautiful vid of Chinese beatboxers, YB Box trailer by Wieden + Kennedy China, made my day. I will never tire of beatboxing (Doug E. Fresh and the Get Fresh Crew changed my life), but what makes this extra is the kind of cross-cultural pollination that this exemplifies. We may lament that the French love Jerry Lewis, but how can you not love Chinese kids embracing hiphop culture and feeding it back to the West. May the circle be unbroken, dog.
