Since watching Pitch Perfect, I've sorta become obsessed with accapella. And I do think it's a style of music Nigerians are missing out on greatly. So I thought i'd introduce those who aren't familiar with it to this totally awesome and ingenuine way of making music. We should totally introduce it as a social activity in higher institutions. Much more fun than going to parties or fellowships I'll be profiling accapella groups weekly and once you get a feel of the sound, I promise you'll fall in love with it  First off we have the Pentatonix  Year of Inception: 2011 Highest Award: Grammy for Best Arrangement Most Viewed Youtube Video: Daft Punk- We Rock All Night (Cover) Members: Kirstie Maldonado (Age 23) Nationality: American Mezzo-Soprano [img]http://www.google.co.uk/url?source=imglanding&ct=img&q=https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/be/ba/b3/bebab334ff6897cc3f709bdc2fd2f7e3.jpg&sa=X&ved=0CAsQ8wdqFQoTCKby3cChlcYCFWOM2wod7gYAVA&usg=AFQjCNHN7xV59C3Dah7vCS5aPxTiTd2_qg[/img] Mitch Grassi(Age 22) Nationality: American Tenor  Avi Kaplan (Age 26) Nationality: Swedish Bass  Scott Hoying(Age 23) Nationality: American Baritone [img]http://www3.pictures.zimbio.com/gi/Pentatonix+Visit+NBC+Experience+Store+ubU3pmIF60Hl.jpg[/img] Kevin Olusola(Age 26) Nationality: Nigerian, American Cello(Beatboxing) [img]http://www2.pictures.zimbio.com/gi/Pentatonix+Visit+NBC+Experience+Store+z-0IoJomVh3l.jpg[/img] Songs of choice: Mary Did You Know: 34 Million+ Youtube views https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifCWN5pJGIE Carol Of The Bells: 32 Million+ Youtube views https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSUFzC6_fp8 CC: Airmark Lalasticlala Ishilove Seun Ethereal Mikuz 5 Likes 2 Shares |

Of course the Black guy is the Beatboxer.. Way to play up the stereotypes 2 Likes |

TheRealAdonye:lol, the black guy is the most educated one of them. Dude has a Yale degree and is fluent in Mandarin, 3 of the 5 are drop-outs. He sings sometimes, mainly a beat-boxer, but probably the most intelligent one you'll ever know . And he plays the Cello when he's not in the group 4 Likes 1 Share |

Thank you for this. I've known Pentatonix for a while now, and I really love their vocals. They belong to a genre that's kinda obscure in Nigeria. 1 Like |

Carol of the bells and little drummer boy are my two best pentatonix songs. Well, maybe its because there are the only two i'v heard. |

Harrychocoberry: Accascuse me, it's 'Treblemaker'.....hehe Pentatonix, awesome group. Heard one of them is gay 1 Like |

Nuges11:random guess: it's Mitchi Grassi- he just has this gay vibe about him  |
| Re: Accapella Groups: Pentatonix by may01(f): 8:01pm On Jun 29, 2015 |
Yea, I'm a great fan. Still waiting for Pitch Perfect 2 to hit the cinemas in Uyo. I love this group, especially their rendition of " little drummer boy". |
| Re: Accapella Groups: Pentatonix by Harrychocoberry(m): 9:48pm On Jun 29, 2015 |
Nuges11: Jeez! Yea..you're right,never knew my auto-spell chechk wrote Trouble,instead of Treble. |
| Re: Accapella Groups: Pentatonix by Nuges11(m): 10:53pm On Jun 29, 2015 |
safarigirl: Lol....you must have a special retina for spotting gay vibes You're right, he's the one, and he's quite open about it.Their ages tho, quite doubtful...it's hard to believe that Scott guy with chiselled face like that of superman is only 23 1 Like |

#following finally an A cappella thread!  By the way op its A CAPPELLA not ACCAPELLA Always been a fan of A cappella even before that pitch perfect movie, which i feel was not that real especially in some areas. Pitch perfect 2 is out and pentatonix also featured in it. love that group have most of their songs on my phone. love that kelvin guy for his beatboxing, he also sings i think tenor or treble not sure and that Avi guy some mad ass bass voice |
| Re: Accapella Groups: Pentatonix by safarigirl(f): 11:12pm On Jun 29, 2015 |
Nuges11:dude, even his voice is gay-ish, not that hard  Scott doesn't look so old when you see him sans airbrush, photo-editing, make-up and the whole nine yards. He has this whole college frat boy look about him, so easy to digest the 23 years ish. Look harder and ignore the jaw |
| Re: Accapella Groups: Pentatonix by Nuges11(m): 11:43pm On Jun 29, 2015 |
safarigirl: The harder I look and the more I ignore the jaw, the more I see an older dude. Guess it's the general thing about them white guys looking way more matured than their age. Ah! I've got a very serious crush on Kirstie. Who, in your opinion, is the most indispensable member of the group? I'd say Avi Kaplan 1 Like |
