hm.. well.. I know some of the hip hop stuff.. just never heard of human beat box.. I think that Lunatic Harness sounds good.. but when I first ever heard the track, I thought it was corny, but now I think it's cool :)

nah.. the gansta shit is just something I learned from my cousin, he taught me (kind of) how to speak like that, but we did imitations of different accetns/etc. so that's all it was, this was back a while when we were kids. hmm although I can make it so you'd think I was british, but there's no way I can make you think I'm a gansta/whatever heh (by my voice at least)
