Killa Kela chats to ilikemusic.com
ILM: You started inventing your own beats aged just six to copy that drum noise or put a beat to Grange Hill and were into glam rock metal until at 13 you heard hip hop. How was that to hear other people making the music you made with your mouth?
Killa Kela: At first I couldn't take it seriously. When you're younger it just feels like everyone is doing it, so I was like, 'I thought everyone could do this,' so when you hear someone doing it live and loud on the radio, you can't grasp how someone is taking it seriously. But as soon as I heard it I thought, if they can do it, I can do it. I think it was Biz Markie who was the first beatboxer I heard on radio in1991 and then Rahzel in 1993. But prior to that I was already working out trying to get on stages. But Rahzel for a lot of beatboxers and the scene really did blow the doors and brought that kind of American glamour back into the beatbox, and you need that.
