Top 10 Best Beatboxers of All Time

The Top Ten
1 Adam Rupp

Without a doubt, Adam is the best performing in a capella in the US today. If you listen closely to most groups, you will hear beautiful harmonies with a nice beat and good, even great, percussion. Even so, you know you are listening to vocals only. Not so with Home Free, Adam is so amazing you have to stop and remind yourself that there are no instruments. The few songs were Adam does simply sing harmony are made even more special to fans of Home Free as we cherish those moments of hearing his voice. Though they are incredible recorded, you really must see Home Free, and Adam Rupp, live!

It is totally awesome that Adam Rupp is the world's # 1 beat boxer. There's no one that can ever come close to what Adam does. His solos are amazing and beyond belief. As his range of beat boxing far exceeds everyone else. Adam is a gift from God to this world. He is a true Minister of Music and is not to be confused with music minister. Two totally different things. Of course when Adam does sing he has a beautiful voice and harmonizes perfectly with the rest of Home Free. We are so blessed with the gift of Adam Henry Rupp.

Less than a week ago I went to see one of my favorite groups in concert. Sitting in the second row I was able to see up close and with Adam right in front of me, I was amused and amazed at how Excellent he is in his trade. he is simply amazaing. I don't understand or can I even grasp the concept of the sounds that this man makes with his body but to create a whole arrangement of different beats and sounds of different instruments. Dumbstruck doesn't even come close how I felt watching his solo. He is by far the best I have ever heard or seen. Adam is simply the best!

This man is a serious beat boxing phenomena. You have to see his stage perfomance, it is INCREDIBLE. He can make sounds with his voice and mouth, that make your jaw hit the floor. I recently got to see them live for the first time, and my friend, swore that I was teasing her about their music, until she saw them start, and you could tell that Adam was doing all that percussion and sounds, himself. Adam's stage performance got a standing ovation at the concert I went to, and no matter where their venue is, it happens over and over.

2 Hikakin

I love reeps one but boy this guy... Is awesome I have one of his beats in my head RIGHT NOW!

He has sicker beats than anyone else that I ever heard.

My opinion is that he is may the best beatboxer in the whole world!

I love this man.. My idol..

3 Daichi

I don't understand why he's so low on the list...

Ya his beat is very well but way he down..

Amazing. Just so amazing.

He's beat is very good

4 Joseph Poolpo

He is not that good when you get to know him. People say he is one of the number one best but, he is not there.

Wow

This is embarrassing for him

Try better

Don't give up!

You can do it!

Is the greatest

5 Kevin Olusola

Perhaps his all-round music skills mask his extraordinary skills in beatboxing. Yes, he plays cello (AND Cello boxes! ). And he sings occasionally. He even takes the place of the trumpet when needed. But beatboxing is his thing and he's awesome. He finds all kinds of different beats, effects and styles to fit a wide range of covers and original music with Pentatonix plus his own music. Clearly number one in my humble opinion.

Kevin is the most talented person I've ever seen/heard. He is so inspirational all while being efficient at beatboxing. He gives so much effort into everything he does and is so wise. He is very humble and how he encourages others to try new things. His KO Corners are very inspirational also. He can do many things, like speak Spanish and mandarin! He's very smart and is always so kind to others.

Likely the most successful of the contenders (Grammy winner and #1 Billboard debut album with his group Pentatonix). He is a classically trained musician, he invented Cello-boxing, and while he already is amazing, he's always coming up with new sounds and beats to improve himself and his group. To note he's also becoming quite the amazing singer.

Kevin is a wizard! Among all his skills - and they are countless! - he is a wonderful beatboxer. I'm always amazed by the complexity of what he brings in PTX songs. His beatboxing can be powerful, delicate, complex, discreet, soft, precise... anyway it's ALWAYS perfect and above all simply stunning! His complicity with Avi's bass is also wonderful. And last but not least, it seams to be so effortless for him!

6 Skiller

Skiller is also known as the fastest beatboxer in the world. He won the 2012 World Beatbox Battle Championship with the final battle against Alem. His beatboxing is unique, he has got his own style that no-one can copy and is able to perform some of the hardest beatboxing techniques in the world. He is very entertaining and just knows how to battle.

How original you are as a beatboxer? How you push the limits of the voice?...this Bulgarian is all this together. Amazing...

Why is he over Reeps One, didn't Reeps beat him in the world championship 2012?

He is the world champion in beatboxing! and I think that his beats and skills are better than Adam Rupp. Skiller should be on the 1st place! I'm really proud of him

7 Kenny Muhammad

He is definitely the best beatboxer of all time. He can make multiple sounds at the same time. He is fastm, percussive, and is different from all these beatboxers. He is called The Human Orchestra for a reason.

He is literally a god rapper!

8 Beardyman

I don't understand why he is SO under rated. This guy can actually CREATE innovative music unlike most who just mimic the effects of a few instruments. And to top it off, he's got a great musicality too, apart from technicality. Immense respect for this man.

Beardyman is AMAZING. He makes sounds that almost no one else can, including an awesome guitar sound. He deserves to be in the top 3.

Sorry, but for raw close sound I think he's the best. Beardyman is a genius at using his beat-box for composition.

No doubts, he is the best, he's skills are way higher than others!

9 Rahzel

The Godfather of Noyze, The Pioneer of modern beatboxing. Till date no one has the quality and clarity compared to him. He is the benchmark of beatboxing

If your mother only knew and that's all I got to say.

Old school who deserves a lot of respect!

10 Eklips

The best, best flow.

The Contenders
11 Tom Thum

Tom Thum pushes the limits of the human voice to create incredible soundtracks of impossible beats and phenomenal sounds, with scratched vinyl, the Michael Jackson back-catalogue, the didgeridoo and an entire fifties jazz band amongst his vocal repertoire.

He's the guy. Tom has the ability to create such voices or, sounds that sounds fantastic, unimaginable, realistic, and sometimes hilarious. When heard, the music he creates sound just like those emitted from instruments.

He shows a unique and brilliant understanding of sounds and can takes the vocals to levels one can't even imagine. From a Sitar to Didgeridoo, this guy can mimic everything plus he is a good showman. he definitely needs to be at the top.

Tom Thum ate the whole T.V. and radio station, a whole band and some clubs, digests them then let's them out of his mouth any other way he likes it. Him being pitch perfect just made everything... perfect.

12 Napom

NaPoM is cleaner in most of his battles than Reeps One so he should at least be above him, though Adam Rupp is really good, he doesn't know as many sounds and isn't as fast as some of the others, also Adam Rupp is just a band performer!

Napom should be number 1 because his BEATBOX is not just fast sounds like most of the beatbox that I have heard. His Beatbox is heavy but AWESOME! And I have never heard of something that sounds better.

Definitely one of the most composed, structured, and melodic beatboxers with filthy bass that'll make your bones thrum.

Won 3 battles against great beatboxers at a worlds championship. I personally think he is the best one.

13 KrnFx

He can go really fast and is so cool and has fresh sounds. Sometimes he even sounds like he is rapping and beatboxing at the exact same time!

This guy is just crazy his style is pretty sick and his sound affects just make it even better!

Incredible hip hop, dubstep and technicality skills. One of the best in the world currently.

He can make pretty wild sounds and also Aliens sounds too..

14 Reeps One

Hands down one of the best Beatboxers that will ever live. He has changed the Beatbox scene, put up new expectations and heights to beat. He brought something new to the table with his Dubstep style of Beatboxing. He is someone that one that cannot be compared. As of right now I see him as the Reigning King and the one that changed the game of Beatboxing forever... Check him out!

Best technique, sound clarity and perfect flow. His sound is pure and really feels like real instruments. His flow is really smooth without mistakes. Also he is really skilled in performing mid and deep bass.

Why is Reeps number 11? he's literally one of the best around, he makes his own music in his head, and vocalizes it out in his own, diverse way.. and he's amazing at it.

Reeps One is the closest we can get to sounding realistically. Watch his Inward Drag routine, it's insane.

15 Shawn Lee

Kirk it Up Shawn lee major drop 4 life loved the pestle mortar too!

Shawn Lee is the best!

His the best ever...

Young but so good

16 Codfish

Codfish literally won world championships for his beatboxing, dude is crazy. Have you heard the low beats he can hit?

He is the best beatboxer I ever have seen. I always watch his videos. He is amazing

The best of the best

This is not a good list for my opinion have you even heard a lot from codfish napom or Kenny Urban

17 Alem

Think about it Alem won 2nd place on 2012 at the 3rd Beatbox World Championship... and now he is the current 4th Beatbox World Champion 2015, and the Beatbox Tag Team Champion 2015 with BMG.

Other Awards won:
Grand Beatbox Battle 2013 - 2nd placer
French Beatbox Champion 2013
French Beatbox Battle 2011 - 2nd placer

A new generation/ new school beatboxer with different kinds of variations towards his beat. I think he is the best, and not those beatboxers like Tom Thum, Dave Crowe, and etc. They all go back to old school, sometimes does not change their routine, and their mainstream techniques that are very predictable

I just saw Alem in a battle his just amazing, he can definely destroy anyone, he as all styles and I think you guys will notice that is different, he defeat Skiller and Napom, because he is the beatbox god!

He's just amazing! Way better than rahzel! No disrespect. I know he was a saint but this is a new gen.

Alem should be #1, not Adam Rupp. Alem could have easily smoked him in a battle.

18 Dave Crowe

Man can this guy dubstep. He starts off his show slow and I thought it wasn't so cool but then when he drops the beat he can do some amazing sounds that is entertaining to watch

Absolutely phenomenal! It's as if he swallowed Skrillex and is now producing dubstep-like sounds from some sort of machine in his vocal chords.

Dave Crowe is the best! He is the God of beatboxing! He deserves to be #1. He can do dubstep beatboxing without any machine, he's funny and brave enough to do street performances.

He plays with instruments and all kind of different sounds. He DOES NOT copy only a drum for 2hrs long.

19 Dharni

This guy makes his own sounds and he's also called the Beatbox Professor. I'm pretty sure someone who's called THAT has got to be in the top 5 at the very least. He's won from a lot of beatboxers imcluding some of the ones who're placed above him in the list.

Dharni at 21? Haha. The King of Musiciality and two time GBBB champion. I'm sure the person who vote Adam Rutt and the other low class beatboxer doesn't know anything about beatbox.

This guy is really good!

He simply holds the crown of beatboxing. Watch his battle with krnfx, he fucqd him @ semifinals

20 Bunnyf1uff

This guy inspired me to become a beatboxer myself. I've grown a lot listening to his beatboxing. I haven't even met him and he's done so much for me. Just DA BEST

Yeah! Cute Bunnies humping on the floor...

This guy is ridiculous give him a chance and he will rip the stage

21 Neil Rey Garcia Llanes

Amazing man! 10 beats at once

22 Genesis

This Filipino beat boxing champion of Australia moved to Sydney from Manila, Philippines without any knowledge of the English language. Having discovered beat boxing at a young age, he grew to be one of the best and became a finalist of Australia's Got Talent 2012.

"Just awesome."
- Dannii Minogue, Australian singer-songwriter, talent competition judge, actress, television and radio personality, and fashion designer

"I just don't know how you can beat that, how you can better that, unless you're blowin' out of a lot of holes at the same time... I think it's total genius, what you can do; it's very impressive."
- Kyle Sandilands, Australian radio and T.V. personality

"Absolutely excellent. I cannot wait to see what you do next."
- Brian McFadden, Irish singer-songwriter

Why number 19? You should be number 1! It's so cool what you can do with your mouth. I've watched all his auditions, but I can't stop replaying him in the finals. He can really dance! Who knew he could sing, dance, and gearbox?! Totally my favorite ever!

He's so amazing! I don't know why he's so low on the list he should be in the top 10! He can do 5 sounds! Doesn't need a loopbox! So ORIGINAL!

He's the best beat boxer I ever heard I in my life he's really good. I replaying all videos!

23 oZealous

This guy is beast! He Knows how to keep his rhythm going without fail. Knowing he can beatbox at rapid speed is amazing!

No one beats this guy.. He's just mind blowing

Best and mind blowing! He is amazing!

Ozealous is my spirit animal and I love everything he has ever done

24 B-Art

His inward bass is incredible. Love his style!

He is so talented! His skills are awesome

His inward bass is insane!

He should be like top 5

25 Doug E. Fresh

He put beatboxing on the map! One of the originals! "The Show" with slick Rick was a hit back in the day and still is one of my favorite songs till this day!

Respect! Without the past, there would be no future, without the old schools, there would no cool newschools modern beatboxing like today!

He have good voice
