so i almost have 50 phrases/comments for my book! :) then i just need to figure out images to go with all of them...and how to place the text...oh yeah and a title...word!

i think i am going to aim for 50? pages in my book...give or take haha. i feel like that should be a decent length. and i also thought it could be interesting if i include a glossary in the back of my book of all these "slang" terms used in todays songs...but the definitions would be according to me.

i forgot to say in my previous post some of the books i saw at borders that helped inspire my humorous approach to this project...check them out if you'd like, hopefully you'll at least get a good laugh out of them :)

Grandma's Dead: Breaking Bad News with Baby Animals - McCall and Schwartz

Why is Daddy in a Dress? Asking Awkward Questions with Baby Animals - McCall and Schwartz

Porn for New Moms - From the Cambridge Women's Pornography Cooperative

so after looking at examples of artists books/book arts and visiting borders i think i may have come up with an idea...i decided to take a comical approach, surprise haha and this is what i came up with.   have the book be titled Guide to Understanding Rap (or something to that effect) and then put all my random phrases about my views on rap/pop to diff images. For example, "sean paul's lyrics will never be able to be understood by the human ear...you will hurt yourself trying, so don't worry about it." sooo yeah  i think it should be really fun.
