2010 UKBC, London, UK

The 2010 UK Beatbox Championships returned to the O2 Academy Islington in London on 25th June 2010. Vauxhall once again sponsored the event, with the winner receiving a brand new car as part of the championship prize.

The championship was preceded by four qualifying heats held across the UK in Nottingham, Bristol, Leeds and London. The winner of each heat earned a place in the Grand Final. This year also introduced a Wildcard Battle, where the second and third-placed competitors from the heats were invited to compete for an additional place in the finals.

Reeps One returned to defend his title in what would become one of the most fiercely contested championships to date. The final saw Reeps One face Hobbit in an unforgettable battle that ultimately required an extra round to determine the winner. Reeps One emerged victorious to retain his title, becoming the 2010 UK Beatbox Champion and only the second competitor in UKBC history to become a two-time champion.
