Beatbox legend Killa Kela has put a huge smile on one fan’s face after showing up to their house to surprise them with not only his presence, but some gifts too.
The U.K. beatboxer stopped by the young fan’s house alongside UK sneaker connoisseur and radio host Kish Kash, who wrote on Facebook that this fan – the son of a mutual friend – is named Connor and suffers from Williams Syndrome, a developmental disorder.
“Mere words cannot describe the levels of emotion associated with this,” Kish wrote in a post on Facebook. “When my brother Ad reached out and mentioned that Connor, our mutual friend Shiv’s son who has ‘Williams Syndrome’, is a lifelong fanatical beatboxer who absolutely adores Killa Kela and if I can ask him for a personal message from him to Connor, I said nah mate I can do even better and I’ll surprise Connor by bringing Kela to visit him at home.”
He continued: “To see that innocent look of wonder, amazement, elation from Connor when he unsuspectingly opened his door and then saw his all time hero standing in front of him is absolutely unbelievable and the positive vibrations are beyond maximum levels!!!
“Crazy large blessings to Kela for taking time out to make a good dude’s dreams come true and to Ad for the selfless consideration…if we all go tomorrow let’s take heart for helping to bring even more joy into Connor’s world.”
In a video captured of the exchange, Connor can’t believe his eyes when Kela walks into his house, and proceeds to sit in the kid’s backyard before gifting him some personalized drawings and exclusive merch. Connor then gets to flex his stuff for his idol, as he impresses Killa Kela with his beatboxing talents.
Killa Kella is a legend in his own right and is best known as one of beatboxing’s biggest pioneers. He was the first professional beatbox artist to emerge from Europe, and was also the first beatbox artist to be signed to a major record label.
He even made a splash stateside in the early 2000s, where from 2003 to 2008, Kela was a special guest at various N*E*R*D shows and festivals across Europe. In 2008, he performed with Prince and Nikka Costa at the O2 Arena as a special guest.
Numerous heartwarming moments like the one involving Killa Kela and Connor have transpired over in the U.S. as well in recent years. Back in 2015, J. Cole paid a visit to a young fan who was battling cancer in his hometown of Fayetteville, North Carolina.
Cole visited Tae Stackhouse at the North Carolina Cancer Hospital, where he was a patient at the time, and the fan said it was a dream come true.
“I really appreciate this,” Stackhouse said via Facebook, “just wanna give a big s/o to my mom and my aunt for bringing my favorite rapper to see me I’m proud to say that I’m blessed even tho I have cancer he told me to keep positive so that’s what Ima do thanks j.cole #RoleModel.”
