IT'S IN THE PAPER, SO IT MUST BE TRUE
 
May 20, 2004
 
Best of SF SF Weekly's Best of San Francisco issue came out today. Along with Best Burrito, Best Used Furniture Store, etc., is... Best Beatboxer!
 
Best Beatboxer: Kid Beyond
What takes most people an entire band to produce, Kid Beyond executes with his own mouth... His talent extends beyond percussion: He also sings in and around the beats, and records bits and pieces of his performance in real time using foot pedals, then loops it back live, so he's riffing with himself. The results include eerie orchestrations that make you feel you're in the presence of a higher power and psychedelic trance that makes you want to get up and dance.
 
Thanks, SF Weekly. Right back atcha.
 
 
PIMPIN' WATER

Yes, that's me in the Arrowhead Water commercial. (That'd be Poland Spring for those of you in the Northeast, and Zephyrhills in Florida.) Me and a bunch of the guys from Felonious filmed the spot a few months ago. I don't have a TV, so I haven't seen it yet. Mas agua para todos!
