02:19
But a lot of people out there don't
really know what beatboxingbeatboxing is,
36
127819
3159
Men en masse folk derude,
ved egentligt ikke hvad beatboxing er,
02:23
where it startedstartede from.
37
131002
1523
hvad det kom af.
02:24
ECEF: Right, right.
38
132549
1151
EC: Rigtigt nok.
02:25
NPNP: Where it camekom from.
39
133724
1193
NP: Hvor det stammer fra.
02:26
So why don't you give
them a little historyhistorie --
40
134941
2357
Så, fortæller du dem ikke
lige en lille historie -
02:29
just a ticklekildre -- a bitbit of historyhistorie
of where it comeskommer from.
41
137322
2691
bare en kilde - en smule historie
om hvor det kommer fra.
02:32
ECEF: BeatboxBeatbox startedstartede here in NewNye YorkYork.
42
140037
1857
EC: Det begyndte her i New York.
02:33
(CheersHej)
43

1151
(Jublen)
02:35
That's right, that's right.
NewNye YorkYork, NewNye YorkYork!
44
143093
3487
Det er nemlig rigtigt.
New York, New York!
02:38
EverybodyAlle like, "Yeah!"
45
146604
1627
Allesammen opfører sig sådan: YEAH
02:40
Well, we from StSt. LouisLouis.
46
148255
1490
Men vi er fra St. Louis.
02:41
(LaughterLatter)
47
149769
1018
(Latter)
02:42
NPNP: Now you can put y'allY'all handshænder down.
48
150811
2120
NP: Så kan I godt få hænderne ned igen.
02:44
(LaughterLatter)
49
152955
1299
(Latter)
02:46
ECEF: But beatboxBeatbox startedstartede here in NewNye YorkYork.
50
154278
1977
EC: Men beatbox startede her i New York
02:48
What you would have is that,
when we would go to partiesparter,
51
156279
2691
Det var sådan,
at når vi skulle til fest
02:50
you would have the DJDJ
and you would have the rapperrapper.
52
158994
2476
var der DJ'en og rapperen.
02:53
But because I don't have
electricityelektricitet comingkommer out of me,
53
161494
2743
Men da jeg ikke har elektricitet til,
at komme ud af mig
02:56
we had to emulateefterligne
what the beatsbeats was doing.
54
164261
3125
blev vi nødt til,
at efterligne rytmerne.
02:59
So when you would see the beatboxerbeatboxer,
55
167410
2593
Så når du ville se en beatboxer,
03:02
you would see us over to the sideside.
56
170027
1936
ville du se os ovre til siden.
03:03
Then you would see a rapperrapper,
and when the rapperrapper beganbegyndte to raprap,
57
171987
2926
Så ville du se en rapper
og når han begyndte at rappe,
03:06
we would do a simpleenkel beatslå,
58
174937
1254
ville vi lave en simpel rytme
03:08
because back then the beatsbeats were simpleenkel --
59
176215
2022
fordi rytmerne dengang var simple -
03:10
(BeatboxingBeatboxing)
60
178261
4861
(Beatboxing)
03:15
or --
61
183146
1151
eller -
03:16
(BeatboxingBeatboxing)
62
184321
5696
(Beatboxing)
03:22
Those were simpleenkel beatsbeats.
63
190041
1827
Det var simple rytmer.
03:23
But now, you got folksfolk that want
to do all typetype of stuffting og sager
64
191892
4402
Men nu findes der folk,
som vil lave alle mulige forskellige ting
03:28
with theirderes beatsbeats now,
65
196318
1217
med deres rytmer
03:29
and they want to humiliateydmyge theirderes fatherfar,
66
197559
2389
og de vil ydmyge deres far,
03:31
whichhvilken is not right when you want
to humiliateydmyge the personperson
67
199972
3250
hvilket ikke er fair,
når du vil ydmyge den person,
03:35

03:40
that just go around
and call you "the losertaber."
70

2117
som bare går rundt og
kalder dig "taberen".
03:42
Well, I'm takingtager that to hearthjerte.
71
210688
1905

03:44
But now we do something
differentforskellige in our househus,
