Rapping Paper

Si Hill Design Puts Puts a Hip Hop Groove in Gift Wrapping

— June 3, 2007 — Art & Design
I really love this stuff from Si Hill design - it is so simply but so effective.

The artist has simply taken two rap songs and made wrapping paper consisting only of their lyrics.

Eminem features with "My Name Is" whilst SugarHill Gang's "Rappers Delight" is also there in the collection. These have been a massive hit so expect a lot more to follow soon.

They rock!

Implications - DIG DEEPER. THIS IS NICHE WRAPPING PAPER.

In addition to companies having to come up with unique packaging, when it comes to gift giving, presentation has become just as important. Ideas such as rapping paper allows consumers to find the perfect way to give their present as it is unique and uncommon, therefore making it more desirable to the receiver.

1. Unique Packaging - Explore innovative packaging solutions that enhance the gift-giving experience and make products stand out.
2. Personalized Wrapping - Tap into the trend of customized wrapping paper that incorporates lyrics, quotes, or messages, allowing consumers to add a personal touch to their gifts.
3. Niche Gift Presentation - Capitalizing on niche markets, develop specialty wrapping paper designs that cater to specific interests or fandoms, creating a unique gifting experience.
