Good day, Youtube world.
My name's Evelyn, and I'm here to review a piece of literature. For you. In this video.
I have no idea what region that accent is coming from.
Thought I'd be a little scholarly. Throw them specs on.
Bun B's Rap Coloring And Activity Book.
*music plays*
Here's the back with all the rappers. It got grease, hand fingerprints -- I was eating
Whataburger or something.
So I had this on pre-sale back in the summer, and it was officially launched, released,
available for purchase or whatever in September, so I had a good two months with this coloring
and activity book.
I don't even think it was $15, I'll leave the link in the video description box to amazon.com
where I got it.
It's about 50 pages long, chock full of different rappers. You open the book, and there's Bun
B -- it starts off with Bun B. I colored him already as you can see-- is it in focus?
You get Bun B, you get B.I.G., you get Queen Latifah, you get Talib lyrics stick to your
rib. Riff Raff --
Big K.R.I.T., Joe Budden, Macklemore -- I mean I guess the children love him.
Jay Z, Childish Gambino, B.O.B. whose career has taken just an interesting turn!
Big Sean -- "ohhh god!!"
Then it ends with *** C, and you know what? I respect that.
One of the things I really liked about this coloring book is that, like the title says,
it's also an activity book, so you can break out your peach colored pencil so you can draw
Drake. Color in that light skint.
And you can also break out a pen and do a word search for E-40's popular slang terms
like "scrilla" and "po-po". I just love it, I just love it, Youtube.
You could draw Ludacris, which I thought I did a fabulous job given the circumstances
that I am NOT a drawler.
Be as creative as you want!
What I liked about the illustrations in here is that they are based off of actual photos.
So for example, Queen Latifah is in here and it's a very iconic photograph. Without even
seeing it colored in, I know what album cover or what photograph that this is, so I know
what to color here if I wanna stay true to where the photograph is from.
But for example for Wale, I don't know where Wale's picture from, so I kinda freestyles
his Cosby sweater and I threw in a lil bit Ankara fabric cuz he is from the west side
*gun shot*
Of Africa.
May I direct you to page 38, ah, B.O.B.
I did a little thing here. I cut out some foil paper -- you might call this ghetto,
I call it CRE-A-TIVE -- and I taped some foil to his earrings and his grill so it's ya know
mixed media, you nawwmsayin, you don't wanna be so one dimensional, you feel what I'm saying?
You can collage this heaux! You can cut & paste this heaux! You can ya nawwmsayin mix it up
with paint and markers. Permanent marker and ink, ya nawwmsayin. Crayon if you got crayon
in yo crib.
You can really do a myriad of things, Youtube, and that's the beauty of coloring books!
I will say that this did awaken some of my past complaints as a child about coloring
books is that they often make you choose.
There are gonna be a couple pages that make you choose between two activities.
I have the choice on page 23 to color Big K.R.I.T. I love Big K.R.I.T! I don't wanna be
another *** *sings*
On 24, on the back of Big K.R.I.T.'s page, you have the chance to cut out Joe Budden's features
and glue them onto his face. I wanna do that, but I don't wan--that means I have to cut
up Big K.R.I.T., and I don't wanna make that decision. Why couldn't they have made me decide
between Joe Budden and RIFF RAFF, I would have easily chosen Joe Budden!
I liked that they gave a song recommendation for each rapper, so what I did was as I was
coloring them, I was listening to their music and like, soaking up all their vibes.
Bun B's Rap Coloring and Activity Book is basically the perfect gift, whether it's your
birthday, anniversary, Christmas, um what else? Just an "i love you", a care package
for the hip hop lover in your life. Or you can treat yourself, ya nawwmsayin, like I
did because we deserve it!
Because I love you, Youtube world, I bought two. One for me, and one for one of YOU!
Crisp, new copy of Bun B's Rap Coloring And Activity Book complete with a new, crisp,
sharp Crayola 24 pack colored pencils. WE DON'T DO ROSEART ON THIS CHANNEL!
Remember that? When you were a little kid and your mom would give you Roseart you'd
be like "uhhh! What is this, mother? You couldn't spring for no Crayola?!?"
All you have to do is share this on social media with Bun B.
*read the video description box for giveaway details*
Boom! Bun B's my uncle, and you might get a free coloring book, so it's really a win-win,
right?
Let me know who's your favorite rapper? Just let me know in the comments! See you on the
internets somewhere, bye!
