Vineeth Vincent[1] (born 9 July 1989) is a Beatboxer,[2] Musician, emcee and performing artist from Bangalore, Karnataka, India. He is considered one of the biggest beatboxers in India.[3][4]

Career

Vineeth Vincent started off as a professional[5] emcee in Bangalore during May 2007. In 2008, he took a year off from his studies[6][7] at Christ University[8] to pay more attention to music and beatboxing.[9][10] He spent a month at Mrinalini Sarabhai's Darpana Academy of Performing Arts in Ahmedabad, where he mingled with artists[11] and had the chance to experiment with beatboxing.[12][13] He returned to Bangalore[14] and has been working since 2008 as a professional beatboxer.[15][16][17]

He performed with The Boxettes in 2010 and Austrian beatboxing group Bauchklang in 2009 among many other artists and bands.[18][16][19][20][21] In the search for beatboxing talent[22][23] by the British Council Library (BCL),[24] He was selected as part of the final eight and performed with Voctronica.[25][26] Vineeth Vincent was given the duty of Cultural Secretary[27][28] to lead the cultural activities at Christ University during the academic year 2010–11 and during this period two world records were initiated.

By the end of 2017, Vineeth had over 1250 shows in his credit, held two titles, one for Guinness Book of World Records, and one for Limca book of world records, spoken four times at TEDx, and two times at Josh Talks, and hosted and performed at MI Talks, Delhi.[29][30]

Vineeth's collaboration with other artistes resulted in SaxBox, which has a saxophonist and two beatboxers.[31]

Issues

Vineeth has been vocal against the exploitation of artists and has asked artists not to perform for free despite the pressure.[32] In this regard, he has experimented with alternate business models in the music and culture industry. His first endeavour was 'Beat route beta run' wherein he and three others travelled across the country while doing performances. In July 2015, he set out on a 5000 km solo bike ride across India, including Delhi, Pune, Mumbai, Kochi and Goa, and performed at multiple preset and random locations enroute.[33]

World record

On 10 January 2011, Christ Junior College, Bangalore, under ensemble director Vineeth Vincent, in an event titled 'Can You Say Beat Box?' created the largest human beatbox ensemble in the Limca Book of Records with 2136 participants.[34][35][36][37][38][39]

According to the Guinness World Records, the previous record for the largest human beatbox ensemble involved 1,246 participants and was achieved by Vineeth Vincent and Christ University (India) in Bangalore, Karnataka, India, on 5 February 2011.[40] This record was broken by Shlomo on 14 November 2011 with 2,081 participants.[41]
