Beatboxing vicar raps nativity story to churchgoers

For many vicars penning their sermons is what gets the creative juices flowing. The Rev Gavin Tyte has gone a little further, producing a rap and human-beatbox version of the nativity story, and a video to go with it.

Tyte, a part-time vicar in Devon, raps the story of Jesus's birth while providing his own beatbox backing.

The video features him playing the part of a shepherd, angel and narrator.

The vicar of Uplyme and Axmouth churches has been beat-boxing since the age of eight and was a professional musician before being ordained. The nativity rap combines his two loves — beat-boxing and the Bible.
