Jason Tom began his amateur beatboxer career at age six in 1989. He brings forth the voice music lineage of Bobby McFerrin, Michael Winslow, Buffy of the Fat Boys, Doug E. Fresh, Biz Markie, Rahzel, Kenny Muhammad, Elaine Chao, MC Jin, Killa Kela, Butterscotch, Naturally 7, and Beardyman. When Jason Tom’s Liholiho Elementary first grade teacher played the Moonwalker VHS, he sang the music, instruments and vocals to Michael Jackson's "Badder" by memory. He recorded his beatboxing on audio cassette tapes. Though fun, Jason Tom failed first grade at Liholiho, and transferred to Kauluwela Elementary.
At Kauluwela, he cultivated his reading, spelling, art, drawing, and writing as an amateur comic book publisher. There he found an inspiration to create comic book superhero "Gecko Man." He continued to record his beatboxing on music cassettes until 1993.
During Jason Tom's amateur career, Hawaiʻi's human beatbox pioneers Radical Rob, ACE also known as Gizmo, Re-Run, and Joevon "J.B" Brown paved the way for a Hawaiʻi beatboxer like Jason Tom.
In 2004, a vehicle of 3,000 plus pounds collided with Jason Tom while he crossed a greenlight on the intersection crosswalk near Shobukan Judo Club, Pizza Hut, and Liliha Bakery. He was brought to Queen's Medical Center by an ambulance team. Jason Tom applied judo on impact and judo broke his fall on wet asphalt prior to unconsciousness. Doctor told his family, "miracle, not a broken bone, not fatal." Once conscious, Jason Tom was taken by a family member to see the Passion of the Christ the next day, and he learned he was cautious of parked cars and incoming cars at the movie theatre's parking lot. He also noticed issues with memory.
That same year Jason Tom made his career debut as a professional beatboxer in front of Kapiʻolani Community College professor Leigh Dooley's writing class. "Beatbox Lobby," "Jake Shimabukuro jams with human beatbox - LIVE!," and "Listen Carefully" became his YouTube debuts.
Years went, Jason Tom could not pinpoint the root cause of recurring night terrors and nightmares that attacked him from childhood to adulthood. He later discovered he'd been triggered into the chaos, torment and destructive seed of "complex trauma" that caused him to relive his car accident and other traumatic life events. Those triggers near cost his life multiple of times. Jason Tom works on his health daily by meditating on bible verses, prayer, cardiovascular exercise like walking, rest, offline journaling, writing, beatboxing, music, and mathematics.
Jason Tom is founder of the Jason Tom Academy, known prior as the Human Beatbox Academy, to mobilize the next generation through beatboxing and mathematics to build a bridge about perseverance.
Academics, Mathematics and Atheletics

Family And Upbringing
Jason Tom's father as head chef owned a Chinese cuisine restaurant in Honolulu, and was a theatre production muralist in China who survived through the Chinese Civil War I, Second Sino-Japanese War, Chinese Civil War II, and World War II.
Jason Tom's father instilled in him listening skills for the spoken tones of Cantonese Chinese, discipline in art, reading, and mathematics. Jason Tom describes his father's teaching style to be like that of a "boot camp," and a "war zone" that taught excellent tools on resilience.
Jason Tom failed first grade at Kaimuki's Liholiho Elementary. Despite that, his favorite memory at Liholiho Elementary was when his teacher played 1989's Moonwalker on video cassette. He loved the "Badder" scene, kid version of Michael Jackson's 1987 song "Bad."
In 1989, Jason Tom was six-years-young, and he recorded his "beatboxing" techniques on analog audio cassette tapes up until 1993. Jason Tom's first music cassette "beatbox" recording was of his rendition of "Badder," performed by his tongue's "inward k snare," him scat singing the synthesizer, and singing the chorus.
Upbringing wise, Jason Tom's mother played a pivotal role in helping him learn the ABC's, and how to read through colored alphabet blocks. Jason Tom describes his mother's teaching style as a hands on kinesthetic, visual, and audible approach.
Jason Tom honed his reading with his Stan Lee's Marvel comic book collection of the Incredible Hulk, Amazing Spider-Man, Avengers, Iron Man, and Uncanny X-Men. He honed his drawing and writing when he self published his own comic books from 1989 to early 2000s.
Jason Tom completed primary education at Liliha's Kauluwela Elementary, and completed secondary education at Nuʻuanu's Kawananakoa Middle School, and Downtown Honolulu's President William McKinley High School.
In higher education, Jason Tom completed the Freeman Foundation China Study Abroad Scholarship in an intensive Mandarin Chinese program at Beijing Foreign Studies University, and earned his associate in arts in Liberal Arts at Kapiʻolani Community College.
He further enrolled in some "Music Business," and "Audio Engineering" classes at Belmont University's Mike Curb College of Entertainment and Music Business, and Honolulu Community College.
Music wise, Jason Tom's mother played a key role in exposing him to music on vinyl records. Jason Tom watched countless hours of Michael Jackson on television, music concerts on VHS, and DVD.
The musical instruments Jason Tom had was a 1950's Jaymar 25-key toy piano, a children-sized Chinese lion dance drum play set of a tanggu drum, drumsticks, and cymbals. As a child of the 1980's, he attended the Chinese New Year Festival annually at Honolulu's historic Chinatown Cultural Plaza, and he replicated the Chinese lion dance drum patterns and sounds with his voice. As an adult it had become a tradition that he performed beatboxing for the Chinese New Year Celebrations.
In fourth grade he sampled an ipu, and "my dog has fleas" on an ukulele. In seventh grade his band teacher picked the "tuba" for him to try, all the while he cultivated his beatboxing behind closed doors.
In Jason Tom's earlier years, his beatboxing was rarely heard. His beatboxing got more challenging to be kept hidden from being overheard when on two separate occasions, his high school freshman English classmate in 1997, and contestants at a California judo tournament in 2002 were wowed by his beatboxing. Those two incidents sparked an interest for him to present his beatboxing to the world by giving it a "spotlight," and came out of his shell from stage fright.

(Click Image for Video) "Watched Hawaii's Human Beatbox Jason Tom perform on Saturday along with the Uplift Dancers and I was blown away by Jason's performance. If you've only seen him beatbox on video and not live on stage you wouldn't know how much of a difference it makes in how it sounds live. There's no comparison, the audio on video doesn't even come close to how it really sounds. Auuuuuright!"

Moonwalker
“Jason Tom's rendition of Michael Jackson's 'Billie Jean' is a spectacle of showmanship. From the first drum and snare beats, the song is recognizable, and you wonder how so many sounds could be coming from one person's mouth. Add to this Jason Tom's signature Michael Jackson moves, from the hip thrust to the hand jive.”
— Tracy Chan

“I don’t think I can think of a better example of stretching the limits of potential than what Jason Tom can do with his voice. The sounds that he creates from his body are seriously incredible.

Jason Tom Amphitheater
Jason Tom Amphitheater
“Since the Great Lawn on Kapiʻolani Community College’s campus is really just an obstacle you face on the way to class or the library (seldom do I see students cut across the grass), KCC should recreate this space and construct an amphitheater. The sloping lawn is perfectly suited for this construction. The stage could be at the base of the ʻŌhiʻa Cafeteria with rows of seats or benches extending up to the Kokio building. Once it’s complete, the Jason Tom Amphitheater (named after famed musician and KCC alumnus Jason Tom) would attract music groups wide and far. KCC would suddenly rival the Waikīkī Shell and Blaisdell Center for musical performances. Tickets for students would always be free unless a bidding war were to erupt when Bruno Mars schedules his next concert at KCC.”
Jason Tom's to be released "Breathe" music video was filmed on location in Sydney, Australia.
A Jason Tom Amphitheater has been proposed by Kapiʻo News on their Christmas Dream List for KCC to be built on the campus in honor of him as one of their famed alumnus. Since then Kapiʻo News featured Jason Tom in an alumnus write up. His TEDx Talk video "Vocal Groove" recently got featured at a TED-Education Club Student Talks event. Jason Tom is preparing for Hawaiʻi Slam First Thursdays' Grand Slam Final 2019, shows in China this 2019, and Prisma Dance's "Creation" Production in 2020.
