Skat singing

A style of jazz singing somewhat analogous to beatboxing where you reproduce the sounds of an instrument (often a trumpet, clarinet, or saxophone) with your voice.

(Supposedly skat singing was also used earlier, in rag time, but it became most well known through jazz.)

Well known skat singers include Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Cab Calloway, and Scatman John.
If you've seen the movie The Blues Brothers, the song "Minnie the Moocher" has skat singing.

Singing River Mall

A big ass piece of shit. This mall is the infection of the small town in Mississippi, known as Gautier (go-shay). It's failing attempt at redeeming itself by banning all teenagers are their most busiest days, Fridays and Saturdays, brought failed effort to the ever chance of bringing the mall alive again. Nowadays the mall is filled with closed down stores, Ex: Sound Shop, Walden Books, etc, etc. Nothing is left there except mall rats who just walk laps around the once mall, now a long hallway. This is severe bullshit, and an upgrade is severely required.
Anything that comes from you sphincter, and enters a toilet. Ex: Singing River MAll

Shinging

To sing in a way that is very shouty. Often done by loud bastards who can't sing for shit.
"Fuck me, Bob's shinging again!" said I, to Shay, as Big Bob bellowed out the lyrics to Deep Purple's "Smoke On The Water", as he does to every fucking song of every fucking genre! I continued, "He's fucking tone deaf, that cunt!"
