BeatBox, usually abbreviated as B-Box

originated in the United States, and it is a new Hip-Hop element that has appeared for less than 1 years. A musical culture that flourished five years ago. It can be popularly understood as ventriloquism, but it can't be called ventriloquism. Generally, Beatboxer doesn't like to be called ventriloquism. If it is explained in ordinary terms, it is a rhythm box. Beatbox is a form of ventriloquism, which mainly involves imitating drums, rhythm and music with mouth, lips, tongue and voice. It also includes: singing, imitating disc playing with vocal cords, imitating speakers, strings and other musical instruments. Today's Beatbox is closely related to hip-hop culture and has become one of the important factors of hip-hop. What needs our attention is that the abbreviation "b-box" is only called in China, but it is not standardized. The correct name should be "Beat box" or "Beatbox".
