Bo Burnham is a 19-Year-Old Musical Comedian. Bo started a YouTube Channel when he was 16, and uploaded the video of him on his electric keyboard, performing a song he wrote called "My Whole Family...", which dealt with the topic of his entire family believing him to be Homosexual... even though he isn't. The video became very popular, and as of March 21, 2010, has 4,767,577 views. Here it is:

Nowadays, he's working on a Musical Comedy film with Judd Apatow, which is supposed to be a "real" High School movie, or an "Anti-High School Musical".

Why do I like this guy?
Because he's the type of comedian I like; one who can poke fun at himself or at some of the jokes that may not be as funny. Like when he raps, he does it in a sarcastic manner, it's awesome :buddy: Plus, some of his songs really are kind of catchy :v:

Now, discuss good ol' Bo Burnham.
I expect Facepunch to not like this guy, but I just am making a thread for those who haven't heard of him and might like him, or for those who want to discuss him.

So do that.
