Be bop bop ba dop bop

Ski Ba Bop Ba Dop Bop I’m the SCATMAN!

…or something.

Little did you know, John Paul Larkin, or “Scatman John” was a stuttering jazz musician/poet who turned his biggest problem into his biggest asset by creating a unique fusion of scat singing and dance music. He actually intended his #1 hit song to inspire children who stuttered to overcome diversity. At 52, the guy was a worldwide star. Wow.

RIP Scatman John - your Skiddly Bee Bop will forever live in our hearts.
