SIGNED by LL Cool J, No Finer copy! Complete with never-played CD, "And the Winner Is" launched the HipKidHop series 7x7, paper-over-board books packaged with CD singles, presenting messages worth rappin' about. The lyrics of each song form the text, which appears against a backdrop of full-bleed cartoon art. On the CD, LL Cool J sings his songs in mild, melodic rap, backed up by the appealing voices of youngsters. After completing the songs, he urges listeners to sing the lyrics themselves, accompanied by the music and background sound effects. In And the Winner Is, "I never give up" is the refrain, as LL Cool J offers a lesson on the basketball court in how to be both a good winner and a good loser ("When you heard the winners cheering, you wished they understood,/ How hurt you felt when they felt so good"). Computer-aided artwork superimposes photos of the rapper's head on cartoon renditions of a player's body. As New Condition. Book#v5b255. $95. We specialize in Rare Ayn Rand, history, and science.
