Beatboxing group Berywam from AGT season 14 is one of the 60 contestants in the new AGT: All-Stars series. The four singers of Berywam (Beatness, Rythmind, Wawad and Beasty) are the 2018 World Champions of Beatbox and want to give “new momentum to the democratization of beatboxing.”

The group reached the quarterfinals of season 14 of AGT in 2019 but failed to move forward to the semi-finals and ultimately ranked 8 in their quarterfinal leg.

Premiering on Monday, January 2, AGT: All-Stars is a new series of the America’s Got Talent franchise featuring only former finalists, winners and viral contestants from previous seasons and shows in the franchise.
