The Art of Beatbox

People like Amit seem to believe that beatboxing is a sacred art form where you make actual "music" and pour your heart and soul into the mic, which invalidates any possible criticism from the plebians who "don't see the legendary skill of my homies on a daily basis." In fact, however, beatboxing is nothing but the imitation of music by making funny noises with your mouth and using heavy reverb on the speakers to make it sound cooler. Conversely, proponents of the Art of Beatbox refer to beatboxers as "artists" and act like you have to know them personally and come to every event before you can tell who won a battle. And even then, the judges are always right, so it doesn't matter. Plus, the community is all about puppies and butterflies anyway, so why even have competitions? We can just put on showcase events where everyone pats each other on the back all day, and no one ever improves. It'll be fun, I swear!
