  Speaker 1: If you're really into the odd sports, you know the
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: stuff on the sidelines here that aren't connected to the NHL,
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: the NBA, NFL, or Major League Baseball, we're talking about
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: American Ninja Warrior, professional wrestling, and so many other things.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: That's what all-level sports are about. You can find it
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: on arrow.net, A-R-R-O-E dot net. Enjoy your love for sports
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: and your exploration. It's me, that question guy. You know,
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: the dude that's always asking questions because it's so much
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: fun to start doing the research. Who was the very
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: first person to gain access to the success of beatboxing? Plus,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: our bodies are musical instruments, right? Well, what other parts
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: of our body have made it into music? My name
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: is Arrow. I'm a daily writer, a silent wolf. I
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen, study,
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: then activate. I happen to call it the daily mess
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: because it's a chronological walkthrough in everyday world. It is
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: my daily writing. As a receiver of thoughts and ideas,
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: we as people tend to throw things to the side
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: and deal with it later on. When a subject arrives
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: inside of me, dude, it is time to dig in.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: It's still keeping.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: That daily journal, but by doing the research, the picture
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: is always going to become clearer. This is the Daily Mess.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: Is there one person who gets credit for developing what
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: is called beatboxing? How could making mouth sounds become a
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: total go-to? Human beat imitation has always been a part
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: of our life, way before hip-hop. Although there's no real
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: person that invented it, Doug E. Fresh is looked upon
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: as being the founding pioneer. Beatboxing, using your mouth, lips, tongue,
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: and breathing. It's earned the respect of being a physical
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: music technique. Plus, we can't leave out Darren Buff the
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: Human Beatbox Robinson. His claim to fame was being the
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: very first to step into the rhythm and sound of hip-hop.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: Before Darren and Doug E. Fresh, it was all about
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: being on the street. Oh yeah, New York was on
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: fire with thousands of people imitating the drums and percussions.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: What you may not know is that beatboxing was not
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: originally meant to be a novelty.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: It actually solved a problem. Yeah, really, seriously.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: Early hip-hop artists could create a drum machine without really
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: having a drum machine. They used their mouths.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: But, but, but, but, but, but.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: Is what you're hearing today on Spotify, iHeartRadio, and all
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: those other streaming platforms, is it real or AI-generated beatboxing?
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: It's pretty much AI. But is that really wrong? I mean,
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: beatboxing was introduced to a drum machine. Why can't AI
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: take that invention to a brand new level of beatboxing fame?
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: Or does it have to sit inside a machine? Coming
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: up next.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: I'm a guy.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: I gotta ask this question. What other body parts have
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: made it into music? Hey, thanks for coming back to
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: The Daily Mess. What other body parts outside of our
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: mouths through beatboxing have made it into the creation of music?
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: I wasn't shocked to see this answer. Music is nothing
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: more than exploration, as is the human body.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: But can they work together to create music? Oh, hell yeah.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: It is said the human body is basically a built-in
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: percussion and wind instrument. There's the typical body parts that
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: make music such as your mouth and lips, the tongue,
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: the teeth, the hands, the fingers. There's even been recorded
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: music where the entire body is the solo member of
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: multiple pieces. If the outside of the body is being used,
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: what about the natural body sounds? You know, humans are
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: guilty of suddenly sliding their humming, whistling, and breathing into
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: a song. But what about the human cough, the sneezing,
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: the burping, and what about a fart?
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: Check, check, check, check, check. All of it has been
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: used in creating music. Even stomach and gut gurgles and swooshes.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: God, that would sound so cool. I'm a guy. Remember,
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: I'm a guy.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: The body is always going to make sounds and create
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: sounds that people really do enjoy. Oh, and before I forget,
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: as mentioned before, flatulence has been used in so many
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: different ways and vibrations. And one of the most famous,
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: and you may not even know this, Is the song
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: tragedy from the Bee Gees? It sounds like a clap
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: of thunder.
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. It's not.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: It's a human sound that's been put through a computer.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: It's a human sound, which I think is cool because
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: I'm a guy. And that's the daily mess.
