Times of Youth: For those who don’t know about you and your work, can you tell us a little about yourself?
Asfandyar Junejo: My name is Asfandyar Junejo (AJ). I’m just a regular 21 year old kid who’s been beat boxing since the past 10 years. Its more of a life style than a hobby now.
Times of Youth: How would you describe your work to someone who has never known about it?
Asfandyar Junejo: I would beat box in front of him/her and wait for their jaw to drop before I tell them what I can really do and what I’ve done. 😉
Times of Youth: What sparked your initial interest in beat boxing?
Asfandyar Junejo: I used to watch Disney Channel; it had this show called “That’s So Raven” where this kid called Eddie would beat box every time he got in trouble with his teachers. I thought if I can learn how to beat box it just might save me from my teachers.Moreover Never really got out of any trouble because of beat boxing.
Times of Youth: At what age did you started doing beat boxing? Has your family always been supportive of this choice of career?
Asfandyar Junejo: I was maybe around 11 years or 10 years old and yes my family has been supportive since the start. I would thank my siblings and my parents for all their wishes and support and wish for them a blessed life.

Times of Youth: What is one question nobody has ever asked you— that you wish they asked you?
