(Laughter)

(Latter)

EC: Y'all like that? Let me show you how we used to do it --

EC: Kan I lide det? Lad mig vise jer, hvordan vi gjorde -

NP: Get it pops, go ahead.

NP: Gør det farmand!

EC: ... when I was growing up in the '90s.

EC: ... da jeg voksede op i 90'erne.

(Beatboxing)

(Beatboxing)

(Beatboxing ends)

(Beatboxing slutter)

(Laughter)

(Latter)

(Beatboxing)

(Beatboxing)

NP: Pops, pops, pops, pops, pops, pops,

NP: Farmand, farmand farmand farmand,

hold up, hold up, hold up, hold up!

hold, hold, hold, hold.

Oh my God.

Åh, gud.

OK, he's trying to battle me.

Ok, han prøver at udfordre mig.

Hold on, right now, hold on.

Hold inde, lige nu, hold inde.

Do you remember when you used to beatbox me to sleep?

Kan du huske, da du beatboxede til jeg faldte i søvn?

EC: Yeah, yeah, I remember.

EC: Ja, ja, det husker jeg.

That's when she was a little baby.

Det var da hun var en lille baby.

We would do something like this.

Vi gjorde noget i den stil her.

(Beatboxing)

(Beatboxing)

NP: I remember that.

NP: Det kan jeg godt huske.

(Beatboxing)

(Beatboxing)

NP: All right, pops, pops, pops, chill out, chill out.

NP: Okay, farmand, farmand, rolig, ro på, ro på.

Hold up, hold up, hold up.

Vent, vent, vent.

EC: Y'all remember the video.

EC: I kan alle huske videoen.

This is like a little payback or something

Det her er en slags gengæld eller noget,

for 50 million people calling me the loser.

til de 50 millioner, der kaldte mig taberen.

NP: Hold up, hold up.

NP: Vent lige, vent lige.

But a lot of people out there don't really know what beatboxing is,

Men en masse folk derude, ved egentligt ikke hvad beatboxing er,

where it started from.

hvad det kom af.

EC: Right, right.

EC: Rigtigt nok.

NP: Where it came from.

NP: Hvor det stammer fra.

So why don't you give them a little history --

Så, fortæller du dem ikke lige en lille historie -

just a tickle -- a bit of history of where it comes from.

bare en kilde - en smule historie om hvor det kommer fra.

EC: Beatbox started here in New York.

EC: Det begyndte her i New York.

(Cheers)

(Jublen)

That's right, that's right. New York, New York!

Det er nemlig rigtigt. New York, New York!

Everybody like, "Yeah!"

Allesammen opfører sig sådan: YEAH

Well, we from St. Louis.

Men vi er fra St. Louis.

(Laughter)

(Latter)

NP: Now you can put y'all hands down.

NP: Så kan I godt få hænderne ned igen.

(Laughter)

(Latter)

EC: But beatbox started here in New York.

EC: Men beatbox startede her i New York

What you would have is that, when we would go to parties,

Det var sådan, at når vi skulle til fest

you would have the DJ and you would have the rapper.

var der DJ'en og rapperen.

But because I don't have electricity coming out of me,

Men da jeg ikke har elektricitet til, at komme ud af mig

we had to emulate what the beats was doing.

blev vi nødt til, at efterligne rytmerne.

So when you would see the beatboxer,

Så når du ville se en beatboxer,

you would see us over to the side.

ville du se os ovre til siden.

Then you would see a rapper, and when the rapper began to rap,

Så ville du se en rapper og når han begyndte at rappe,

we would do a simple beat,

ville vi lave en simpel rytme

because back then the beats were simple --

fordi rytmerne dengang var simple -

(Beatboxing)

(Beatboxing)

or --

eller -

(Beatboxing)

(Beatboxing)

Those were simple beats.

Det var simple rytmer.

But now, you got folks that want to do all type of stuff

Men nu findes der folk, som vil lave alle mulige forskellige ting

with their beats now,

med deres rytmer

and they want to humiliate their father,

og de vil ydmyge deres far,

which is not right when you want to humiliate the person

hvilket ikke er fair, når du vil ydmyge den person,

that take care of you, pay all your tuition, (Nicole laughs)

som tager sig af dig, betaler for undervisning, (Nicole ler)

especially when you have 50 million people

især når der er 50 millioner mennesker,

that just go around and call you "the loser."

som bare går rundt og kalder dig "taberen".

Well, I'm taking that to heart.

Det tager jeg personligt.

But now we do something different in our house,

Men nu gør vi noget anderledes i vores hjem,

so we have these jam sessions,

vi har de her jamsessioner

and our jam sessions consist of us jamming in church.

og vores jamsessioner består af os der jammer i kirken.

You know, in church, we'll look at each other like,

Du ved, i kirken ser vi sådan her på hinanden

(Beatboxing)

(Beatboxing)

(Laughter)

(Latter)

and we'll text the beat to each other.

og vi sms'er rytmerne til hinanden.

Or we'll be in the kitchen cooking,

Eller mens vi er i køkkenet og laver mad,

road trips, airports.

på køreture, i lufthavne.

NP: Standing right there in the corner, "Aw, Dad -- listen to that."

NP: Så står man der i hjørnet "Åh far, lyt til det her."

(Beatboxing)

(Beatboxing)

Naw, I'm kidding. But you know what?

Nej, jeg laver sjov. Men ved I hvad?

We're talking all about this jam session and everything.

Vi taler meget omkring de her jamsessioner og alting.

EC: Yeah.

EC: Ja.

NP: Why don't we give them a little peek, just a tiny bit of our jam session?

NC: Skal vi ikke give dem et lille glimt, bare en smule, af en jamsession?

NP: Y'all want to hear some jam session? EC: Y'all ready for a jam session?

NP: Vil I alle høre en jamsession? EC: Er I alle klar til en jamsession?

(Cheers)

(Jubel)

NP: Sorry? I can't hear you.

NP: Undskyld, var det et ja?

(Cheers)

(Jubel)

Yeah! Kick it, pops!

Ja! Giv los, farmand!

(Beatboxing)

(Beatboxing)

(Applause)

(Bifald)

(Beatboxing)

(Beatboxing)

(Beatboxing ends)

(Beatboxing slutter)

(Applause)

(Bifald)

NP: I'm getting ready to go!

NP: Jeg er ved at være klar!

EC: Y'all ready? Everybody stand up! Come on, everybody stand up!

EC: Alle klar? Alle sammen op og stå! Kom så, allesammen, stå op!

Get on up! Come on, stretch!

Kom op! Kom nu, stræk jer!

(Beatboxing)

(Beatboxing)

(Beatboxing ends)

(Beatboxing slutter)

NP: That's it.

NP: Det var det.

(Cheers and applause)

(Jubel og bifald)

Tak! Lav noget larm!

EG: Thank you, everybody!

EG: Tak allesammen!

NP: Lav noget larm. Lav noget larm!
