Interesting, but would like to see the video where the tenant in the apartment next to his starts banging on the walls telling him the shut the hell up..  |

What is that in his left hand? It's a calabash - a hollow gourd used for storing liquids. I see them represented all the time in the Chinese antiques I shoot at work - in fact there are a pair of vases I just shot in that form in an auction starting this weekend:  |

I wonder what purpose it serves in his beatboxing, though...

I don't think it serves any purpose other than to emphasize his heritage, which judging by the other bits of decor and his outfit, seems to be a big part of his whole "thing".

So far I've avoided buying any because it's so hard to identify and date, but it's such a big market that I really should educate myself on it. Is there any books you'd recommend? |

We've been discussing new music and this kid is interesting. I've been following this kid for a couple years on YouTube. His beat boxing is what put him on the scene, but even in the original video I posted, you can tell he has a decent voice. While not a very good dancer, I like his singing. I'd consider buying an album if all of the songs were to this level.
Of course, it's not rock 'n' roll so I'd have to venture out of my middle-aged, white guy veneer. Maybe I can put on a disguise even if I buy it online. Can't be too careful.

I'm just the photographer here, but I asked the specialist in the Asian Art department, and he recommended www.gotheborg.com as a resource. |

That's good of you, I'll have a good look. |
